Testimonials: California
The pandemic has significantly altered the legal landscape in the field of personal injury law.
Driving has decreased considerably while the court system has become backlogged, with cases being set for trial 2-years from the date of filing. This has led to fewer new clients and tremendously frustrated those with existing cases. Aware of these factors, the insurance industry has exponentially increased their standardized practice of delay, stall, hinder, then low-ball banking on the attrition of Plaintiffs and their lawyers. Advocate Capital is a guardian in our most challenging time and has permitted us to continue to fight, without fear of expense, for just and fair results for our clients.
Advocate Capital has provided confidence and support, which allowed this firm to thrive during the darkest days of the pandemic. We are honored to collaborate with such an exceptional entity and look forward to many more years of success.
Advocate Capital is a great asset to have in your law office management toolbox.
As a small law firm, we are better able to focus on what the case needs to maximize its value, without spending so much time managing case budgets and cost tracking amongst the various cases. The people at Advocate Capital are also great to work with and provide helpful suggestions concerning case cost management and financing. I do not hesitate to suggest Advocate Capital to any other plaintiff’s law firm.
I first learned about Advocate Capital about five years ago through a well-respected plaintiff’s firm in the San Francisco Bay Area.
While at the time my young firm did not yet qualify for their services, the Advocate Capital team was very encouraging, checking in with me every few months, answering my questions, and generally being a great resource.
When my firm finally qualified just over a year ago, we immediately invested the recaptured revenues into marketing and growing our team. We saw results immediately. By the end of 2019, my firm’s revenues had grown 87.4% over 2018.
My firm was recognized by Law Firm 500 as the 22nd fastest growing law firm in the United States and the 4th fastest growing law firm in California. Advocate Capital has been the fuel powering this growth. And even with the challenges 2020 has presented, we expect to continue our growth trajectory.
To say I am grateful to Advocate Capital for their support is an understatement. Any plaintiff’s firm would be crazy not to take advantage of the services this company offers.

In the difficult business climate we find ourselves in, it is a relief to know there is a company that one can turn to assist in funding the endeavors of my firm. A majority of lending institutions are reducing access to vital business capital, with the exception of Advocate Capital. They extended our credit line to allow us to have our best year on record.
We are one of Advocate Capital's longest clients. It made sense to us almost 20 years ago and it makes good sense now.

Advocate Capital has helped us achieve the highest possible recovery for our clients. They have helped alleviate the financial pressures of the case so that we can focus on the litigation and on obtaining the highest possible settlement or verdict.

The people at Advocate get it.
In the catastrophic personal injury and wrongful death cases that our firm handles, you have to spend money to make money. Litigation has become increasingly expensive, and we are often litigating against defendants whose resources dwarf ours. Success often requires hiring the best experts in the country, and they don’t come cheap.
The last thing we need to be worrying about during the midst of trial is how we’re going to afford to pay for the experts and other expenses that are necessary in these types of cases. That’s where Advocate Capital comes in. They provide us with the financial wherewithal to take on any defendant, in any type of case, in any forum. We could not do what we do without them.
On top of that, their staff is incredibly friendly, helpful and accommodating. Working with them has been a pleasure. Unlike banks with whom we have dealt in the past in order to finance our cases, the people at Advocate get it. They understand that we are not a typical business with typical cash flow, receivables, etc. and that we require financing that meets our unique needs. They also understand and appreciate the importance of what plaintiff’s lawyers around the country do to achieve justice for people and promote the safety of products, workplaces, etc. The people at Advocate have become a critical part of our litigation team.
Advocate Capital has been instrumental in the growth of our personal injury law practice.
Advocate Capital has been instrumental in the growth of our personal injury law practice. Instead of fronting tens (or hundreds) of thousands of dollars in one particular case, we are now able to use that money to fund other cases and not have to worry about retaining the proper (expensive) experts, and paying for a critical demonstrative or animation for a jury trial. I highly recommend Advocate Capital.

I just want you to know that you guys have made a big difference.
I just want you to know that you guys have made a big difference by choosing to support me three years ago. It meant a lot to me. While I was a partner in other firms I thought, If I ran things, I would do it this way, but I always worried about whether I could support a business of my own. During the application process with Advocate Capital, the simple act of putting together the fees that I had generated over the years made me see what I generated over the past few years, and how much I would need to carry in order to operate my own firm. The application process alone gave me more confidence and now I’m doing three to four times that much! I will always appreciate Advocate for that.
We have developed a great partnership with Advocate Capital.
From top-notch customer service to lightning-quick funding, Advocate Capital is vital to our firm's success. They are very easy to work with and are always just a phone call away. We are very happy with their services so far and highly recommend them to any other plaintiff firms that are looking for litigation funding.
