| Understanding Structured
Settlements |
|
 |
|
| A structured settlement
is the payment of benefits received for a personal injury
or workers' compensation claim where all or part of the
settlement is paid in the future, according to a specified
schedule. The structured settlement generally includes
monthly payments or lump sum payments, or a combination
of both, designed to meet the needs of the individual claimant.
The structured settlement is set up as an annuity, and
the payments are made by a highly rated insurance company. |
| For most people, the
initial payment plan appeared to make sense and meet their
needs. Unfortunately, life never seems to work out the
way we plan it. A financial emergency, unforseen medical
expenses, or an opportunity to invest can make it necessary
to reconsider the need for future payments. |
| Accessing the
Money
Changes in the law have made it possible to access
your future payments, and exchange them for their
present value today. You are no longer locked into
a periodic payment stream that does not meet your
needs. You have the opportunity to sell all or part
of any remaining payments for a lump sum of cash,
provided the reason for doing so is truly in your
best interest. The law specifically requires that
a sale of structured settlement payments be your
best financial option. Annuity Transfers will not
buy your payments unless it is in your best interest.

The law requires that
a judge approve the transfer of payment rights. The overall
process can take as much as 90 days, though we are ready
to do whatever it takes to reduce the time required to
access your funds. Never accept the word of a funder who
claims that a judge will approve your transaction in 4
or 5 weeks. The law itself pushes the time required out
to at least 2 months. This is actually a good thing since
it is the law that protects you every step of the way.
Annuity Transfers follows the law "to a tee," making
absolutely certain that the judge understands and appreciates
your need for funding now.
