Questions to ask before funding

Policy limits"Do you know the at-fault driver's liability policy limits? GA minimum is $25k — if it's higher, funding is safer."
Liability confirmation"Is there any dispute about liability, or is it clear fault? Can you confirm in writing?"
ER diagnosis"What injuries were diagnosed at the ER? Just complaints of pain, or did imaging show anything objective?"
Ongoing treatment"Is the client currently treating? With who — chiro, PT, ortho, pain management?"
Imaging results"Any imaging yet — X-ray, MRI, CT? A positive MRI significantly strengthens case value."
Total medical bills"What's the current known total of medical bills?"
Future treatment"Do you anticipate injections, surgery recommendations, or long-term therapy?"
Settlement timeline"Are you expecting this to settle quickly, or is litigation more likely? Expected timeline?"
Prior injuries"Any pre-existing conditions that could complicate causation or reduce damages?"
How to frame it: "I just want to make sure the advance we consider is in line with the case value and doesn't create a problem at settlement."
