Nevada requires a consumer litigation funding company to file a surety bond payable to the State, satisfactory to the Commissioner of Financial Institutions, under NRS 604C.540 — capped at $50,000. Ours is $500 flat, filed through NMLS, and the price you see is the checkout price. The application includes a credit consent, but it authorizes a soft pull only — a soft inquiry that never affects your score. No hard inquiry ever runs on this bond.
















Here's the entire process for the NMLS bond that goes with your license filing:
Business, ownership, and contact details, plus an effective date. The credit consent authorizes a soft pull only.
Bonds like this are among the thousands of bond types that issue right after purchase. At most, 1–2 business days.
Your executed bond and power of attorney arrive by email, ready to upload to your NMLS consumer litigation funding company record. Wet-ink original mailed on request.
Nevada regulates consumer litigation funding — advances against the expected proceeds of a pending legal claim — under NRS Chapter 604C, administered by the Commissioner of Financial Institutions. Before licensing, NRS 604C.540 requires the applicant to file a surety bond payable to the State of Nevada and satisfactory to the Commissioner, in an amount up to $50,000, with a term running concurrent with the license.
It's a three-party arrangement: the company (the principal), the surety carrier, and the State of Nevada (the obligee), protecting the consumers the company funds. The bond secures the company's faithful conformity to Chapter 604C — the consumer protections that govern how a litigation funding contract can be written and enforced.
It is not insurance for the company — if the surety pays a valid claim, the company repays the surety. Nevada law keeps the surety on the hook for 30 days after the license terminates or the licensee dissolves, so the bond has to stay in force for the life of the license and beyond.
These are the actual issuing fields — including the credit consent this application requires, which authorizes a soft pull only.
