Legal-Bay Lawsuit Funding Continues to See Flood of Prison Sex Abuse Claims Being Filed Nationwide

Lawsuit loans offer a way for plaintiffs to ease their financial burdens so they can concentrate on assimilating back into society. 

SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. 13, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Legal-Bay, the pre settlement funding company, announced today that the number of inmates reporting sexual abuse while incarcerated has reached an all-time high.

Prison Rape Elimination Act (PREA) is a federal law passed in 2003 that ensures protection for inmates against prison rape in all public and private correctional institutions, whether adult or juvenile. Although the guidelines were meant to prevent rape from happening in the first place, stats show assaults have not decreased.

It should be noted that there is no such thing as consent when it comes to sexual relations between prison workers and incarcerated individuals. Once the power structure is factored in, any sexual activity can be classified as abuse and/or rape.

Chris Janish, CEO of Legal Bay, had this to say with regard to the ongoing situation, "The abuse of women in prisons has been disturbing to see, and as additional states expand their statute of limitations, even more cases are now being filed.  Many of these cases are older but have the same patterns of abuse, which our underwriting team is well-versed in evaluating and approving for funding if needed."    

If you've been a victim of sexual assault while held in any sort of detention facility and need an immediate lawsuit loan cash advance against your impending lawsuit settlement, please visit Legal-Bay HERE or call toll-free at 877.571.0405.

To expedite your funding application, please be sure to have your case manager name and email information available. We cannot proceed with funding without this information.

Unfortunately, Legal-Bay has vast experience when dealing within this space, as they have assisted many clients with their prison sexual abuse lawsuits. They have supported victims of sexual assault at Riker's Island in New York City, NY, and are leading the charge for the all-female plaintiffs in the Dublin, California federal correctional institution cases, where over 60 claims of sexual abuse have been filed.

Legal Bay is also on the front lines for plaintiffs in the Camp Scott, Camp Kenyon Scudder, Los Padrinos, Barry J. Nidorf, and Challenger Memorial Youth Center cases in Los Angeles, CA, where probation and detention officers at various juvenile detention centers are being accused of sexually assaulting approximately 300 boys and girls during their incarceration, along with the 500+ plaintiffs that have come forward to file suit against the city of New York, alleging a pattern of disturbing sexual abuse suffered at Brooklyn and Bronx facilities.

The vast abuses taking place at so many prisons and juvenile correctional facilities has prompted an outcry for better protections be put in place for all wards of the state. Until then, Legal Bay stands at the ready to bring their legal funding expertise and financial relief to every adult prison and youth detention center plaintiff across the nation.

If you have been raped or abused in prison and need financial or legal assistance, Legal-Bay is here to help. Please visit Legal-Bay HERE or call toll-free at 877.571.0405.

Legal-Bay continues to be an advocate for victims in these and all sex abuse cases throughout the country, as well as sexual harassment in the workplace and abuse or discrimination in places of employment. Legal-Bay also focuses their efforts on funding clients with personal injury cases such as car accidents, motorcycle accidents, bus crashes, truck accidents, construction site accident, medical malpractice, dog bites, slip and falls, and more.

Their loan for settlement funding programs are designed to provide immediate cash in advance of a plaintiff's anticipated monetary award. While it's common to refer to these legal funding requests as settlement loans, loans for settlements, law suit loans, loans for lawsuits, etc., the "lawsuit loan" funds are, in fact, non-recourse. That means there's no risk when it comes to loans in lawsuit settlements because there is no obligation to repay the money if the recipient loses their case. Therefore, terms like settlement loan, loans for lawsuit, loans on settlement, or lawsuit loan funds don't necessarily apply, as the "loan on lawsuit" isn't really a loan at all, but rather a stress-free cash advance.

Legal-Bay is known to many as the best lawsuit funding provider in the industry for their helpful and knowledgeable staff, and one of the best lawsuit loan companies overall for their low rates and quick turnaround, sometimes within 24-48 hours once all documents have been received.

To apply right now for a loan settlement program, please visit the company's website HERE or call toll-free at: 877.571.0405 where agents are standing by to answer any questions.
