What kind of legal claims can be assigned to The Legal Equalizer?
We are interested in taking assignments of certain valid legal claims, particularly those that are properly filed in California or involve defendants located or residing in California. These claims can include breaches of contract or promises, unpaid loans, or damages resulting from fraud.

Can all types of legal claims be assigned?
No, not all types of legal claims can be assigned. Claims that involve personal injury, such as accidents and pain and suffering, defamation, or emotional distress are personal in nature and cannot be assigned under the law.

Why can The Legal Equalizer take claim assignments when lawyers cannot?
The Legal Equalizer can take claim assignments because the principal is not an attorney and therefore does not assume the fiduciary responsibility that lawyers do. This allows us to file lawsuits in our name without having to hire lawyers on an hourly basis.

What experience does The Legal Equalizer have in litigation?
The principal at The Legal Equalizer has over 37 years of litigation experience and success, including taking on large and powerful companies or individuals.

What is the process for assigning a claim to The Legal Equalizer?
If you wish to assign your claim to us, please provide information on your claim, including when it arose, the parties involved, the amount of damages, where the claim arose, and any evidence you have to support your claim. We will review this information and contact you if we are interested in discussing it further.

How will the litigation process work if we come to an agreement?
If we agree to take your claim, we will assign it to us and pursue it to settlement or judgment in our name. You will not be named as a plaintiff and will not be involved in the litigation for the most part. However, you may need to supply documents or give a deposition if the defendant requests it during discovery. We will advance all out-of-pocket costs and have a written agreement documenting the assignment.

What compensation can I expect if the claim is successful?
After deducting any out-of-pocket expenses we have advanced, you will receive around 50% of the remaining recovery collected from the settlement or judgment.

Can The Legal Equalizer dismiss the claim if it becomes non-viable?
Yes, if at any time we deem the claim to no longer be viable due to a change in law, newly discovered facts, or any other reason, we reserve the right to dismiss the action and reassign the claim back to you.

What should I do before approaching The Legal Equalizer?
We highly encourage you to first seek contingency lawyers before coming to us. Please ensure you have already approached at least two contingency lawyers and have been rejected by them before submitting your claim for review.

Are there any deadlines I should be aware of?
Yes, all legal claims have a deadline to take action known as the statute of limitations, typically ranging from two to four years after the claim has arisen. Lawsuits must be filed before these statute of limitations expire, or you can lose the right to pursue or assign your claim.
