A few questions, answered.

Can I start before the estate is settled?

You can request an attorney consultation about your estate matter. An inheritance advance is a separate option subject to review of your documented interest in the estate and the provider's requirements.

Do I need an attorney for a probate advance?

Usually not, which is the big difference from injury funding. What the funder needs is documentation of the estate — the will, the case number, and confirmation of your share — and cooperation from the executor or estate attorney.

What if another heir contests the will?

A contest doesn't automatically disqualify you, but it changes the risk, so funders will typically advance less until the dispute resolves.

Do I have to repay it if the estate pays out less than expected?

In a properly structured non-recourse advance, no. The funder is purchasing a portion of your interest and takes the risk that it's worth less than projected. Read the assignment terms carefully — this is the single most important clause in the agreement.

Will the other heirs find out?

The assignment is generally disclosed to the executor or estate attorney, since they direct the distribution. It typically does not change what other heirs receive.
