Pre-Settlement Funding Restrictions in Maryland

Pre-settlement funding classified as lending — rate caps of 24-33% apply

Maryland treats pre-settlement funding as consumer loans subject to state lending laws. Interest rate caps of 33% for advances under $1,000 and 24% for advances over $2,000 make most pre-settlement funding economically impractical for funding companies.
