Understand Before You DecideFunding Comparison Worksheet
Compare the same amount received and the same possible payoff dates. Use written offers and review the details with your attorney.
This worksheet is a comparison aid, not a funding quote. Ask each provider for all charges and conditions. An offer with a smaller advertised rate may not have a lower total payoff.
Enter figures from your offers, then print or save as PDF. Your entries stay in this page and are not submitted or saved by this worksheet. Reloading clears them. Do not enter case or personal details.

Understand What Remains for You
Estimated recovery proceeds, minus attorney fees, case expenses, applicable liens and funding payoff, equals the estimated amount remaining for you. Ask your attorney which deductions apply. A planning estimate does not guarantee a settlement or final distribution.
Before You Decide
- Confirm that each offer delivers the same amount to you.
- Compare total payoffs on matching dates, not rate labels alone.
- Discuss whether a smaller advance or another resource could meet your needs.
- Resolve unanswered questions and review the agreement with your attorney.
