What does pre settlement advance means?
A pre settlement advance is made when a legal claim is pending. Claims for things like personal injury can leave the claimant with high costs for medical bills or other expenses that they cannot currently afford to pay. In these cases, a pre settlement advance is made - money is paid to the claimant so that they can pay their expenses. This does not affect the claim, although any money paid in a pre settlement advance will count towards the settlement.
