Built for the Way PI Firms Earn
Running a personal injury firm means living with uneven cash flow. Your revenue arrives in unpredictable settlements while case costs go out the door every month, and that gap makes financial clarity and steady financial planning hard to come by. A law firm fractional CFO from Cathcap gives you a clear read on your numbers, so you can fund the next case, support sustainable growth, and make confident business decisions without waiting on the next big check.
Expert Financial Leadership
Fractional CFO Services for PI Firms
Personal injury firms run on timing, and so should your finances. As a fractional CFO firm, Cathcap pairs you with a CFO-led team that reads your numbers, steadies the gaps between case costs and settlements, and turns financial management into something you can actually plan around. It’s senior-level guidance shaped to how contingency work pays, supporting the strategic planning that helps you fund growth and move on opportunities with confidence.
What we do

Cash Flow and Case Costs
Fund your caseload without second-guessing the bank balance. We build a cash flow forecast around your case-cost advances and settlement timing, so you always know what you can spend and when.

Frequently Asked Questions
Yes, and that is exactly where this work earns its keep. Case-cost advances can drain your cash long before a settlement arrives, so we build a cash flow forecast around your open cases and expected resolutions. You get a clear view of what you can safely spend on new files, staff, and marketing, instead of guessing against the bank balance.
That is one of the most common questions we help personal injury firm owners answer. We model the numbers behind a new hire or a heavier caseload, factoring in case costs, expected fees, and timing, so the financial decision rests on real projections rather than a gut call. The goal is sustainable growth you can actually fund.
Bookkeeping tells you what already happened; a fractional CFO helps you decide what to do next. Your accounting team and finance department keep the records clean and compliant, and we add the strategic layer on top, reading what the numbers mean and guiding decisions on cash, hiring, and growth. We work alongside your existing team, not in place of it.
Lumpy, unpredictable income is the defining financial challenge of personal injury work. We smooth it into something you can plan against, forecasting cash flow across your case pipeline and setting aside reserves so a slow stretch between settlements does not stall the firm. That steadier footing supports the long-term sustainability of the practice, so a quiet quarter is a plan, not a panic.
