The amount you receive in your pre settlement lawsuit loan really depends on three factors:

Who was the party that was at fault in the case. A lot will also depend on the state you live in and the laws regarding accidents. Some states allow you to sue even if you were partially at fault. And it is decided what percentage of the liability is attributed to each side. That will help out underwriters determine how much is the right amount to give you for the pre-settlement lawsuit loan.

Injuries

The other factor that is considered is how badly were you hurt. As an example, someone that requires surgery as a result of their accident, is more likely to recover more money then someone who has soft tissue injuries. Remember, the higher the recovery, the more we can afford to provide a higher loan for a pending lawsuit.

Insurance

We look at how much the policy limits are for the defendant. The higher the limits the higher amount we can provide in pre settlement lawsuit loan. Note that for car accident loans we look at two policies.

The first is obviously for the defendant in your case. The second is your own policy to determine if you have uninsured or underinsured motorist insurance. This can get you a higher recovery hence a higher lawsuit loan amount.
