Express Legal Funding, a leader in the pre-settlement funding industry, has officially announced launch of Express Legal Funding Portal.
According to certain reports, this particular platform arrives on the scene bearing an ability to gives plaintiffs real-time access of their funding application status, document uploads, and direct case communication, doing it all from a secure, user-friendly interface. More on the same would reveal how the new portal delivers a rather interesting follow-up to recent revelations that claim the legal industry has now surpassed $1 billion in annual advances nationwide.
Now, the new solution’s potential in leveraging this growth can also be understood once you consider, since going live on iOS, Android, and web, it has already witnessed a combined 200 installations, relaying strong early adoption and client demand for greater transparency, speed, and convenience throughout the legal funding process.
“Clients tell us this is the best communication experience they’ve had with a legal funding company,” said Shawn Hashmi, Chief Executive Officer at Express Legal Funding. “The high number of downloads in such a short time proves there’s a real demand for this kind of tool.”
Talk about the whole value proposition on a slightly deeper level, we begin from how Express Legal Funding Portal improves operational efficiency and transparency on both sides of the process.
You see, for plaintiffs, it offers utmost convenience and greater control during what is a financially vulnerable time. On the other hand, attorneys can also tap into the solution to cut down on administrative back-and-forth, and therefore, free up time to focus on litigation.
Anyway, taking a more feature-specific view of things, we begin from the new portal’s promise to provide live case status tracking. This involves monitoring the full legal funding timeline just as it unfolds.
Next up, we have the prospect of secure document uploads that ensure users can send attorney correspondence and case files instantly without worry about their data’s security. Express Legal Funding’s new portal, in fact, offers bank-level encryption to maintain client privacy and legal compliance at all times.
Another detail worth a mention is rooted in the portal’s in-app messaging facility, which ensures users can communicate directly with case managers, eliminating long hold times or email delays. Almost like an extension of it, we have push notifications coming into play, notifications that allow you to avail instant alerts for updates, requests, and approvals.
Hold on, we are not done yet, considering we haven’t yet touched upon the availability of a funding calculator, which can come in handy to draw estimations regarding pre-settlement cash eligibility based on case type.
Moving forward, Express Legal Funding also plans to introduce several new features across this platform in the near future.
These new features will include a cutting-edge attorney dashboard, which should conceive real-time access for law firms to manage client funding.
Joining the mix would be in-app renewals that will allow you to access easy follow-up funding requests for returning clients.
Finally, the company also plans to bring an assortment of case management integrations, all for the purpose of establishing compatibility with popular personal injury law firm software platforms like Clio, Filevine, and SmartAdvocate.
“This is the kind of digital leap our industry needed,” said Aaron Winston, Phd, Strategy Director at Express Legal Funding. “With the Express Legal Funding Portal, clients no longer have to wait days for updates or navigate confusing paperwork. Now they can check their status, send documents, and message us—all in one place, and on their own time, anytime 24,7. Ray Bivona, our Operations Manager, did a great job building out the platform.”
