I've been an attorney for over a decade. I know what it's like to run a practice, serve clients, and build something from scratch.A couple years ago, a conversation with a peer changed my trajectory. We were talking about pre-settlement funding - the industry that's supposed to help plaintiffs while their cases work through the system - and I was shocked at what I heard.The industry was antiquated. Unprofessional. Run almost entirely by finance people who'd never stepped foot in a courtroom. Attorneys were funneling their clients to giant corporations that treated funding like a transaction, not a relationship. No white glove service. No real partnership. Just volume.Everyone in my network complained about it. Nobody saw the potential.So I started researching. I talked to competitors. And the more conversations I had, the worse it got. These companies didn't just lack professionalism - they felt sleazy.That's when I realized: the relationship-based service I already provide through my law firm? That's exactly what was missing. Same principles. Same ethics. Same approach.I founded Instabridge to bring those standards to legal financing - pre-settlement funding, attorney lending, litigation financing, and other capital solutions for law firms and their clients.If you're an attorney who's tired of recommending funding partners you don't fully trust, let's talk. I built this for you.Cleveland native. Disgruntled Browns fan. Proud father of 3 boys. Occasionally on the golf course.
