In this legal funding business owner interview, we sit down with Laura Moore, the founder of Moore Injury Funding, to explore how she turned personal pain into a mission-driven business. From starting with no roadmap to leading a boutique team serving clients across the U.S., Laura shares the heart and grit behind her success.
How an Injury Inspired a Legal Funding Business
Laura Moore didn’t plan to become an entrepreneur. A work-related accident left her injured, overwhelmed, and shocked at how long personal injury lawsuits take to resolve—often 6 to 18 months. With bills piling up and limited options, she saw the need for a company that helps people access funds during legal limbo.
That’s how Moore Injury Funding was born.
Today, Laura’s company offers:
-
Pre-settlement funding
-
Medical procedure financing
-
Legal case funding for law firms
-
Transparent, fast client support
“Money shouldn’t be a barrier to your healing.” – Laura Moore
