A Financial Cushion And Safety Net For Cash Strapped Plaintiffs

People are often stymied to file legal claims and seek judicial remedies in court due to the financial burden it entails. If you are an accident victim for example, hiring a lawyer can be very expensive (although it can sometimes be dealt with in contingency). However, a prolonged litigation can be truly burdensome because bills will start to accumulate; potential eviction or possible foreclosure of properties resulting from non-payment of mortgages has to be addressed; and lack of food on the table for the accident victims and their families can not be set aside even temporarily.

But don't lose heart. There is now an emerging financial trend In the U.S. Justice system called Legal Funding (Lawsuit Funding)! Legal funding is cash funding made directly available to the plaintiff before his/her lawsuit comes to its final settlement. Legal funding is the ultimate marketplace solution for attorneys and their cash-strapped clients as it provides risk free funding at the time they most need it.

One of the fastest growing company that offers lawsuit funding or cash advance for lawsuits is Orchard Funding.

Orchard Funding offers non-recourse cash advance for your lawsuit which means you only pay them back if you win the case. Ergo, you pay nothing if your case loses!

While an unsecured loan from a lender needs to be paid back at a certain time in the future and often requires monthly payments, lawsuit funding by Orchard is totally different because repayment by the plaintiff is only necessary should the case settle. Should the case lose, plaintiff need not repay the cash advance. The cash advance can be used by plaintiff to cover bills like rent or mortgage payments, legal expenses, surgical expenses, medical bills and more importantly to put food on the table for the family.

If you have filed a lawsuit or are about to and have a lawyer, then you may be eligible for a lawsuit funding. The process is quick and simple. Visit their  website at Orchard Funding  and simply complete their Quick Start Form. Right the next day after receiving your completed form, they will review your case, a process which will only take one week. And should your case qualify and is approved for lawsuit funding, you will receive your funds within 24 hours. You may also apply by calling their toll free number at 800-845-0545.


The types of cases that qualify for lawsuit funding  with  Orchard are Personal Injury and Plaintiff Funding Cases which includes Assault and Battery, Bicycle Accident, Burn Injuries,Ceiling Collapses,Defective Products,Dog Bite,Motor Vehicle Accidents,Motorcycle Accidents,Police Misconduct, Product Liability, Premises Liability, Slip and Fall or Trip and Fall, Soft Tissue Cases, Swimming Pool Accidents, Wrongful Arrest/ Wrongful Imprisonment, andWork Site Accidents;
Employment Funding Cases which includes Age Discrimination, Back Wages, Employment Discrimination, Hostile Work Environment, Labor Law, Sexual Harassment, Wage and Benefits Protection, Whistleblower Protection, Wrongful Termination; and
Medical and Malpractice Funding Cases which include Birth Injury, Delay in Diagnosis, Failure to Diagnose, Medication Errors, Wrongful Death, and Worker's Compensation Funding Cases.

If you have filed any of these cases, contact Orchard Funding for whatever funding needs you may have relative to the litigation process. With ready funds to answer any and all contingencies, you and your lawyer can now attend to your case with freedom and objectivity - even if you are up against a corporate giant with 'deep pockets'.

Cambridge Management Group, LLC or CMG is Orchard Funding, LLC's exclusive underwriting partner and source of funding. CMG is a founding member of ALFA, the American Legal Finance Association. ALFA is a not-for-profit corporation that has established the standards for the Legal Funding industry including transaction transparency and disclosure to consumers.

The International Day for the Eradication of Poverty

The International Day for the Eradication of Poverty is celebrated every year on October 17 throughout the world. It was officially recognised by the United Nations in 1992, but the first commemoration of the event took place in Paris, France, in 1987 when 100,000 people gathered on the Human Rights and Liberties Plaza at the Trocadéro to honour victims of poverty, hunger, violence and fear.

 POVERTY IN THE PHILIPPINES

The Philippines has a population of 89,468,677. Prior to the onslaught of Typhoon Ketana (named typhoon Ondoy locally), 16% of this (or roughly 14, 315,00) lives on less than one dollar ($1) a day. 9% (or about 8,052,180) are unemployed.



By the end of 2008 (before the onset of successive natural disasters),  poverty level was estimated was estimated to be at 33% of the population. With three successive devastating typhoons hitting the country  just recently, the tens of thousands more of Filipino families already living below the poverty line will be further pushed into extreme difficulty and long term poverty.

Now, no amount of window dressing can hide the economic failure of the Arroyo administration despite being in power for more than 9 years now! 



Take a look at the faces of poverty in the Philippines before and after the onset of Typhoon Ondoy.

LOOKING TO GET AHEAD IN THE 'CORPORATE RAT RACE'? READ THIS!

Would you have voted him to office if he had looked like this?

Would you have hired a loser like the guy below for your company?

Would you promote a guy like this to your elite corporate staff?

Obviously, the answers would have been resounding no's to all three questions!

A person's grooming creates a lasting 'first' impression on anyone and everyone you come in contact with. It reflects your sense of values. It tells people that 'you matter'! It sends them a message that you really took time to look good; that you made every effort to complete your picture. Good grooming is a result of childhood influences, daily habit, comfort, convenience, etc. and ultimately, it is a total reflection of who you are!

Male grooming is not about being vane. It is no longer a thing of the future. It is now essentially a major part of dressing for success - An important prerequisite to landing a good job, or creating that edge to corner a much awaited promotion in your company.

Results from a recent survey of more than 500 HR professionals—commissioned by Gillette® [PG] and conducted by Harris Interactive®—indicate that 84% of HR professionals agree that well-groomed employees climb the corporate ladder faster than those who are not well-groomed. When it comes to first impressions, ninety percent of HR professionals place more importance on being well-groomed than even a firm handshake. (Gillette Press Release, 9/14/2009)


Lose no hope! You need not worry anymore that you might smell like a sweaty horse in front of your recruiting officer. Gillette.com has launched Gillette Career Advantage specially for you.

Do it now. Remember what the survey says: "Almost two-thirds of HR professionals surveyed believe that a candidate’s physical appearance is important in distinguishing them from other job candidates, and more than 90% agree that a candidate who takes the time to be well-groomed projects confidence. On the other hand, when a candidate arrives unkempt for a job interview, HR professionals conclude he shows a lack of professionalism and more than half believe he is not interested in the position."

THE BEST DEDICATED HOSTING SOLUTIONS FREE FROM THE PRYING EYES OF THE US PATRIOT ACT

Unlike in-house servers, dedicated hosting services requires less up-front investments and can even be implemented in different stages to suit your specific budget and application requirements.

However, choosing the most suitable hosting service provider can be a cumbersome task since not all dedicated hosting service providers are created equal.

TYPHOON KNOCKED ME OFF THE WEB SINCE SATURDAY

The deadliest, most devastating typhoon hit us Saturday...knocked off phone lines and internet connections....killed more than 240 people .....and left hundreds of thousands of families homeless!

This is the first time a flash flood of this magnitude hit Metro-manila....as of this writing hundreds are still stranded in their homes in certain areas where the water has not receded yet. Worst, another typhoon can possibly hit the Philippines in the next 72 hours.

Fortunately for me and my family, we live in the only area of Pasig City which was not flooded.  Please pray for the victims of this calamity...and pray too that the next typhoon won't make a landfall in the country.

To all my entrecard droppers...please continue dropping by my site...I will try to drop too whenever I get the chance to go to an internet cafe...but please pardon me and understand that until the phone lines and internet are reconnected my online activities will be intermitent.

for now, let me share with you some pictures of the devastation in my country.

My Apologies To My Entrecard Droppers!

My sincerest apologies to all my Entrecard droppers.....I have not been able to reciprocate your drops for the last 8 days.....my internet connection went poooped for the last 8 days.  Apparently, my phone lines were accidentally?!? cut off by another phone/ISP provider!  Worst, it took 8 days for my own service provider to resolve the issue...after almost a dozen frantic calls from me...after I finally lost my temper and hollered like hell at the service agent on the other line.

I'm back to my dropaholic form with a promise not to miss a single day again!

Mea Culpa!
