Pre-Settlement Funding in Nevada

If you have an active personal injury lawsuit in Nevada, pre-settlement funding can provide a non-recourse cash advance against your case's expected value — no credit check, no monthly payments, and repayment only from your settlement if your case wins.

Nevada uses modified comparative negligence with a 51% bar and generally gives plaintiffs two years to file. Nevada is also one of the few states with a comprehensive licensing law specifically for consumer litigation funding companies.

Nevada Personal Injury Law: What Affects Your Case

Nevada's personal injury filing volume is heavily concentrated in Clark County, driven by dense Las Vegas Strip traffic, year-round tourism, and a large rideshare and commercial-vehicle presence.

Fault Rule	Modified comparative negligence with a 51% bar (NRS 41.141) — you can recover damages, reduced by your percentage of fault, as long as you are not found 51% or more at fault.
Statute of Limitations	Generally 2 years from the date of injury for most personal injury claims. Property damage claims generally carry a 3-year deadline.
Damages Cap	No cap on compensatory or non-economic damages in standard personal injury cases. Non-economic damages are capped separately in medical malpractice cases. Claims against Nevada state or local government are capped at $200,000 in compensatory damages, with no punitive damages allowed. Punitive damages in other cases are capped at three times compensatory damages, or $300,000 if compensatory damages are under $100,000.
Liability Rule	Several-only liability is the default for most negligence claims, including car accidents (NRS 41.141) — each defendant pays only their own share of fault. Joint and several liability applies in limited situations, including concerted action, intentional torts, strict liability, and toxic-substance or product liability cases.
Litigation Funding Regulation	Regulated under Nevada Revised Statutes Chapter 604C. Consumer litigation funding companies must be licensed by Nevada's Commissioner of Financial Institutions and post a surety bond of up to $50,000. Contracts must be in plain language with clear disclosures, and total charges are capped at the funded amount plus a rate not to exceed 40% annually.

Eligibility

Who Qualifies for Funding in Nevada

Most active Nevada personal injury cases with attorney representation can be reviewed for funding — car and rideshare accidents, premises liability, and product liability cases are all common, with significant filing volume in Clark County.

Funding review focuses on liability strength and realistic settlement value. Because Nevada licenses and regulates consumer litigation funding companies directly under Chapter 604C, Caseflow's agreements with Nevada applicants are structured to meet the state's specific contract-disclosure and fee-cap requirements.

Why It Matters

Why Nevada's Licensing Law Matters

Most states have no statute specifically governing consumer litigation funding, which can leave plaintiffs guessing about fee structures and contract terms. Nevada is different: Chapter 604C requires funding companies to be licensed, bonded, and bound to plain-language contracts that clearly disclose all charges — including the cumulative amount owed if a plaintiff has more than one funding agreement — and caps total charges at the funded amount plus 40% annually.

Nevada's several-only liability rule also matters in multi-defendant cases — common in Las Vegas Strip-area accidents involving multiple vehicles or a rideshare driver — since each defendant is generally responsible only for their own share of fault rather than the full judgment.
