The questions
Montana funding, asked plainly.
Is pre-settlement funding legal in Montana?
Yes, funding is legal in Montana, but not through ClaimAngel today: our funders are not currently taking new Montana cases, and other funding companies do serve the state. Montana's Litigation Financing Transparency and Consumer Protection Act (effective 2024, amended 2025) requires Secretary of State registration, caps charges at the greater of 15% or prime plus 6 and at 25% of any recovery, and requires automatic disclosure of the contract to courts and opposing parties. One important nuance: these rules generally follow where you live, not where the accident happened. If your case is in Montana but you live in another state, your home state's rules usually apply, and ClaimAngel may still be able to fund you.
Can I get a lawsuit loan in Montana?
Yes, you can. Funding is legal in Montana and other funding companies serve Montana cases; ClaimAngel funders are just not taking new cases there right now. And if you live in another state, your home state's rules usually apply to you, so ClaimAngel may still be able to fund your Montana case. What the industry calls a lawsuit loan is not a loan: a loan bills you monthly and follows you if you lose, and this does neither. The accurate name for the modern product is Case Equity, money drawn from the value your case already holds.
How much does legal funding cost in Montana?
Montana law caps what funding can charge: 15% or prime+6; 25% of recovery. On ClaimAngel the rate is public and the same everywhere we serve: 27.8% simple annual interest, never compounding, with a hard cap at 2x the draw plus financed fees. The calculator shows the exact payoff for your numbers, to the penny.
Is pre-settlement funding a loan?
No. A loan follows you if you lose and bills you along the way. Case Equity is non-recourse: money from the value of your case, repaid only out of a winning settlement. Lose the case, keep the money, owe nothing back.
What happens if I lose my case?
You owe nothing back. Non-recourse is the product, not fine print: the draw is repaid only from a settlement or judgment in your favor.
