The original post in this thread:
"Can anyone tell me if a client is allowed to borrow money from an attorney for a workmans comp claim "
Ahh. That is more like an advance on the expected settlement amount. The repayment comes out of the money owed snowman.
 
What is the name of your state?AZ

While attorneys are prohibited from directly lending money to clients in most states due to ethical rules, clients facing financial hardship during a workers' compensation case often have other options. Some attorneys may work with third-party lending companies that offer advances against future settlement proceeds, though these arrangements come with specific terms.

@BensonBingham Why, despite being asked repeatedly to not do this, do you continue to dig up threads that are a month or more old?

Bots don't care. The better question is why the mods haven't banned this account.
I believe Benson Bingham has been site-vetted. He is allowed to post to the forum as long as he refrains from advertising his law firm in his postings.

His postings to old threads have been reported to the moderator in the past and he has been advised not to revive old threads. This thread probably is not old enough to warrant a report, especially since the original poster (snowman45106) has been a frequent visitor to the forum since 2009 and could return to this thread.
