Legal Funding You Can Trust

Oasis was founded in 2003 by attorneys who saw a specific need among several of their clients. These clients were burdened with increasing medical bills and living expenses, but their cases weren’t settling fast enough to make payments. The attorneys launched Oasis to provide a way for plaintiffs to receive pre-settlement funding and make life livable until their case closed.

Our founders established a philosophy and values that guide our business every day.
  • Help people in difficult circumstances regain some control and prevent disaster.
  • Be responsible and transparent so customers can make informed choices.
  • Ensure a dignified customer experience by engaging them with respect and understanding.
Oasis Values

Milestones

In 2022, Oasis Financial changed its parent company name to Libra Solutions to better reflect a growing offering of products and service to help consumers, attorneys and healthcare providers weather the storm of slow moving legal processes. Oasis Financial remains the name of our pre-settlement funding business.

We are founding partners of ARC, the Alliance for Responsible Consumer Lending, and APA, Americans for Patient Access.

We’re proud of our A+ rating from the Better Business Bureau, and our four-star rating from Trustpilot. We’ve been a lifeline for more than 250,000 individuals and families, providing relief during difficult times.
