Lawsuit Funding for Hit-and-Run and DUI Accident Victims
Hurt by a hit-and-run or drunk driver? Green Street Funding offers non-recourse funding while your attorney pursues every source. Repay only if you win.
Being hit by a driver who flees, or by a driver who was drunk or high, is frightening and unfair. These cases bring extra challenges on top of your injuries.
In a hit-and-run, the driver may never be found. Recovery may come through your own uninsured motorist coverage or a state fund, depending on where you live. In DUI cases, the driver may face criminal charges, and many states have dram shop laws that allow claims against a bar or restaurant that served a visibly intoxicated person. Those extra claims can mean more defendants and a longer process.
How pre-settlement funding helps
Green Street Funding offers non-recourse funding while your attorney pursues every available source of recovery. You repay only from a recovery. If your case is lost, you owe nothing. Funding is subject to underwriting approval.

Hit-and-Run and DUI Accidents: common questions
The driver was never found. Can I still get funding?
Often, yes, if your attorney has a claim against an uninsured motorist policy or another source.
Does the criminal case affect my civil case?
It can affect timing. Civil cases sometimes wait for criminal proceedings to finish. Funding can help during that wait.
What is a dram shop claim?
In many states, a business that serves alcohol to a visibly intoxicated person may share responsibility for a crash that follows. The rules vary by state.
