Last month, The Milestone Foundation surpassed $6 million in pre-settlement advances, all of which were provided with low, simple interest. With 850 plaintiffs advanced and 320 law firm partners, these numbers reflect the growing demand for ethical litigation funding and the trust we’ve earned within the legal community. Many attorneys say they exclusively refer clients to The Milestone Foundation because of our transparent terms and nonprofit mission.
In an industry often criticized for predatory practices and compounding interest rates, The Milestone Foundation is setting a new standard. As the only nonprofit in the litigation funding space, we provide plaintiffs with access to financial support while preserving their dignity and financial stability.
We offer pre-settlement advances at a 10% simple interest rate, the lowest in the industry. There are no hidden fees, no compounding interest, and no surprise charges. This structure ensures that plaintiffs do not walk away from a hard-fought settlement with more debt than they started with.
We understand that many trial lawyers hesitate to recommend litigation funders out of concern for their clients’ long-term financial wellbeing. At The Milestone Foundation, we share that concern. Our approach is rooted in the belief that access to justice shouldn’t come at the cost of future hardship. Every dollar repaid is reinvested to help the next plaintiff in need.
As we approach our tenth year of service, we remain committed to transforming the funding landscape by making it more ethical and more transparent. If you are interested in learning more, visit themilestonefoundation.org.
