Young Lawyer Financial Program™

I received this (unsolicited) e-mail yesterday and thought I would pass along the information. I have no idea whether this is a good company and am not endorsing their product. Please research them carefully if you decide to take advantage of their services.

How can you help third year law students who decide they are not interested in exploring traditional career paths and want to venture out on their own or start a small practice upon graduation? What do you tell a 2002 graduate who contacts your office in search of a way to exit the “big law firm” rat race? These may be difficult questions for you to answer, but we can help.

Civil Action Finance, Ltd. (CAF) knows how difficult it is for a recent law school graduate to start a law practice. The capital resource requirements and lack of a legal support structure can be overwhelming and intimidating. In an attempt to give back to the legal profession and provide some impetus to those with an entrepreneurial spirit, Civil Action Group, Ltd. developed the Young Lawyer Financial Program™.

CAF began financing law firms and their litigation costs back in 1997. We are not a structured settlement or pre-settlement loan program. We work directly with the lawyers and law firms to provide them the necessary funding to litigate personal injury or product liability claims against the “deeper pockets” of the defense firms and insurance companies. That has been the primary obstacle facing sole practitioners or the smaller boutique firms.

As Career Services professionals you know that not everyone fits the same mold. We feel we offer a career option for those that look forward to “fighting-the-fight” on their own rather than going to a Top 250 firm. And we can help you give them that opportunity. Please forward this information and attached materials to those students or alumni that might be interested in this program or direct them to our website at Young Lawyer’s Program.

Should you have any questions or need additional information, please feel free to contact me.

Sincerely,

Craig Robbins
