Why Pontem

Funding built around your case, not your credit

No risk if you lose

We are repaid only from your settlement. If your case is lost, you owe nothing.

Every dollar disclosed

Your contract lists every charge in dollars and what you would owe on each date, before you sign.

Your case stays yours

We never contact the other side or influence your settlement. Those decisions stay with you and your attorney.

How it works

Four steps from application to funds

  1. Apply

    Tell us about your accident and your attorney. It takes a few minutes online or by phone.

  2. We review your case

    We contact your attorney's office for the case details, such as the police report, medical records and insurance limits. Your credit and income don't matter.

  3. Review your contract

    You receive a plain-English contract showing the amount funded, every charge in dollars, and what you would owe at each point in time. Your attorney reviews and signs it too.

  4. Get your funds

    Once the contract is signed, we send your money by direct deposit, check or wire. You can still cancel within five business days.
