Growth Capital · marketing & case acquisition

Acquire More Cases with Less Risk

Fund your marketing and case-acquisition spend with Working Capital, then get repaid as your cases monetize. You scale on less of your own cash, and carry far less of the downside if a case doesn't pan out.

No personal guarantee Repaid as cases monetize

How it works

A docket that funds its own growth.

Deploy capital into marketing and intake, and the cases it generates join your docket as collateral. A bigger docket means more borrowing capacity, which funds the next wave. The engine keeps turning.

builds

Month over month

Each advance generates cases that stack into collateral.

Illustrative. Monthly advances fund marketing; the cases they generate accumulate as active collateral.

Risk & return

Less of your cash in. A better return on what's left.

Financing your growth changes the math two ways: you commit less of your own cash up front, and if a case doesn't pan out, your exposure is smaller. Drag the slider — then flip the switch.

Your win

Grow past your cash ceiling, keep more of your own capital working elsewhere, and carry a smaller downside on the cases that don't pan out — with no personal guarantee.

Aligned, not adversarial

Cartiga shares the risk and a small part of the upside on the cases its capital generates. We only do well when your cases do — so the incentives point the same way: more good cases, well-resolved.

Figures are illustrative and hypothetical, shown on a per-case basis for comparison — not a quote, projection, or guarantee of capital, case volume, return, or results. Financing is subject to underwriting and approval; amounts and terms are sized to your firm's active-case portfolio. This is not legal, tax, or financial advice.

What does it cost?+

A simple, flat rate on what you draw, plus a small share on the cases the capital helps generate. Transparent terms, sized to your firm — the specifics are set in your agreement. (Illustrative figures elsewhere on this page are hypothetical, not a quote.)

How is it repaid?+

A small monthly payment, with the balance repaid as the cases monetize — capped by proceeds, so it follows your cash flow instead of fighting it.

What's the catch — what does Cartiga get?+

We share the risk with you and take a small part of the upside on the cases our capital generates. It's aligned by design: we only do well when your cases do. You keep your cases and your client relationships.

Do I need a personal guarantee or to pledge my house?+

No. The financing is approved on your active docket and is non-recourse against it — not your personal assets.

How much can I get?+

Capital from $50K to $5M, sized to your docket and your marketing plan.

The capital

Growth capital, underwritten on your docket.

One product, built for how contingency firms actually earn: financing for the marketing and intake that grow your caseload, structured around your settlements instead of a bank's calendar.

01 · Funds the growth

Up to 100% of marketing cost

Cartiga finances the spend that builds your caseload, so it doesn't come as upfront cash out of your operating account. Capital from $50K to $5M, sized to your docket.

02 · Repaid on your clock

Pay as cases monetize

A small monthly payment, with the balance repaid as the cases settle, at a simple, flat rate. Repayment follows your cash flow, not a heavy fixed bank schedule.

03 · Built around risk

Non-recourse, no guarantee

Approved on your active cases, not your house, and no personal guarantee. The financing is non-recourse against your docket, so the downside is shared instead of stacked on you.

We'll size growth capital to your docket and your plan, then walk the math together, including the risk.
