When someone is injured in an accident or suffers another loss for which he or she can sue, the injured party can suffer further Ohio personal injuries when taking out a loan to cover the expense of their lawsuit.
According to the New York Times, injured parties can suffer personal injury when lawsuit lenders target them. Lawsuit lenders have high rates, often taking a large amount of clients’ settlements.
