Lawsuit Funding for Wrongful Arrest and Imprisonment
Falsely arrested or wrongfully imprisoned? Green Street Funding offers non-recourse funding while your civil case proceeds. Owe nothing if you lose.
Being arrested or jailed without legal justification can cost you your job, your reputation, and time with your family. Some people spend days, months, or even years behind bars for something they did not do.
Claims may include false arrest, malicious prosecution, and wrongful conviction. Many malicious prosecution claims require the criminal case to have ended in the person's favor. Claims against government entities often carry strict notice requirements. Wrongful conviction cases may also involve special state compensation laws. These cases are often long and closely contested.
How pre-settlement funding helps
Green Street Funding provides non-recourse funding to people pursuing wrongful arrest and imprisonment claims with an attorney. It can help while you rebuild. If the case is lost, you owe nothing. Funding is subject to underwriting approval.
