Case Expense Financing For Law Firms & Lawyers
Better Results
The AdvoTrac® Case Expense Funding Service
Are you still using your firm’s after-tax profits to fund your advanced case costs? There is a better way. Since 1999, our AdvoTrac® Case Expense Funding Service has helped successful law firms get even better results for their clients. Our proprietary technology tracks borrowing costs case-by-case, allowing our clients the ability to pass through the borrowing costs directly to their case resulting in a net cost to their firm of less than 1% per year, and ZERO for those cases they win. Our clients have maximized their case efficiency, shortened their close time, and stabilized their cash flow. Update your fee agreement language today and contact us with questions.
Now, we have the freedom to represent all of our clients to the fullest…

* In most jurisdictions, a law firm can reduce its annual costs by passing borrowing costs through to its cases, but the compliance requirements can be too expensive to implement. Only Advocate Capital, Inc. has the proprietary AdvoTrac® expense tracking system and service team that allows firms to easily comply with allocation and reporting requirements. So, for example, if a firm recovers at least 90% of its borrowing costs from its cases, as most of our clients do, its annual cost of funds is very small – even less than 1%. Contact us to discuss how our program can work for your firm. All loans are subject to credit approval, and terms and conditions may vary.
