For attorneys and law firms handling contingency fee cases, cash flow can be unpredictable. Even after a case is successfully resolved, it can take weeks or months before the settlement funds are officially distributed. That’s why many legal professionals turn to post-settlement funding—a financial tool designed to provide immediate access to capital for those waiting on earned fees. But once the funds are finally released, how does repayment work?
Understanding Post-Settlement Funding Repayment
Post-settlement funding is not a traditional loan. Instead, it’s a non-recourse advance based on the proceeds of a settlement. This means the funding is repaid directly from the settlement fee once it’s disbursed—not through monthly payments or personal liability.
When your firm receives post-settlement funding from Balanced Bridge Funding, repayment happens once the settlement funds are available. The agreed-upon amount to satisfy the advance is taken from the proceeds before your firm receives the remaining balance. This process is straightforward, transparent, and designed to minimize disruption to your practice.
A Streamlined, Stress-Free Process

At Balanced Bridge Funding, we understand that attorneys don’t have time for complex financing arrangements. That’s why our repayment process is clear and predictable from the start.
Here’s how it typically works:
- Funding Agreement – Once your case has settled, Balanced Bridge reviews the documentation and advances a portion of your anticipated fees.
- Case Resolution Period – During the time it takes for the settlement funds to be processed and released, your firm can use the advance for any operational needs.
- Repayment at Disbursement – When the settlement proceeds are distributed, Balanced Bridge is repaid directly from those funds according to the agreed terms.
There are no surprise fees or hidden conditions, just a simple, transparent transaction that helps your firm bridge the gap between settlement and payment.
