Construction Accidents · $2,500 – $150,000+
Workers' comp is not your only claim.
Comp pays regardless of fault, and it caps what you get. A third-party claim against a general contractor, property owner or equipment manufacturer is separate — and in some states the law is heavily on your side.
Sound familiar?
What people in your position
are actually dealing with
- Comp is paying a fraction of your wages and nothing for what you have been through
- You were hurt on a site run by a company that does not employ you
- Faulty equipment or missing fall protection caused it and everyone is pointing elsewhere
- You are worried about your job if you pursue a claim
- Nobody explained that comp and a third-party case can run at the same time
Realistic timeline
Commonly 2 to 4 years for a third-party construction claim, with multiple defendants each running their own defence.
Why funding fits this case
Comp benefits are usually too small to live on and arrive slowly, while the third-party case that carries the real value takes years. Advances are non-recourse and repaid from the settlement, so if the case does not succeed you owe nothing. Note that funders generally underwrite the third-party claim, not the comp claim itself.

$2,500 – $150,000+

How it works
From application to cash
Two minutes on your phone
Tell us it's a construction accidents case, what state you're in, and how much you need. No credit check, no documents to upload.
Your attorney confirms the case
A funder licensed in your state contacts your attorney directly for the case details. You don't gather records or chase paperwork.
Money lands
If it qualifies, funds typically arrive within 24–48 hours of approval — direct deposit or check, your choice.
Your advance is non-recourse. The funder only gets paid if your case wins or settles. If it loses, you keep the money and owe nothing — no credit check, no monthly payments, nothing that follows you. Funding does carry a fee that grows the longer your case runs, so take the smallest amount that solves your problem and review the payoff schedule with your attorney first.
Construction Accidents questions
Straight answers.
I'm already on workers' comp. Can I still bring a case?
Often yes. Comp generally bars suing your own employer, but not a third party — a general contractor, a property owner, a subcontractor, or an equipment manufacturer. Those claims run alongside comp and are usually where the real value is.
I've heard New York is different. Is that right?
New York's Labor Law sections 240 and 241 impose unusually strong duties on owners and contractors for gravity-related injuries such as falls and falling objects. It makes New York among the most favourable states in the country for construction injury claims.
Can I be fired for bringing a claim?
Retaliation for pursuing an injury claim is unlawful in most states, though the protections and remedies vary. Raise it with your attorney at the outset so it is documented from the start.
Does an advance affect my comp benefits?
A pre-settlement advance is not income and is not a loan, so ordinarily it does not. Tell your attorney you are seeking one anyway — comp liens and settlement offsets interact, and they need the full picture.
