As the only non-profit providing plaintiff funding in the country, we pride ourselves on being the antithesis of predatory for-profit lending companies. We know how stressful and taxing going through litigation can be after experiencing a trauma- so we make it our mission to fight for the plaintiff to get as much as they deserve at the end of a settlement.
It happens all too often:
During litigation, some injured plaintiffs struggle to put food on the table while awaiting settlement. After exhausting their savings and all other options, they may turn to a for-profit funding company for help. However, these companies’ astronomical compound interest rates can cause even deeper financial trouble. The Bairs Foundation is an alternative solution.
Our foundation does things differently:
We provide financial assistance with low, simple interest to plaintiffs in need, so they can pay the bills while pursuing justice – without breaking the bank afterward.
For us, it’s not about collecting as much money as possible. Here’s how our funding process works:
- Once a plaintiff applies for funding from the Bairs Foundation, we begin a thoughtful review process to ensure we understand the breadth of their needs.
- The goal is to provide just the needed amount, so repayment later is as easy as possible.
- And here’s the best part: After the plaintiff pays us back, those funds, plus interest, go on to help the next plaintiff in need.
How plaintiffs in need can apply
