Settlement Planning

Individuals who receive legal settlements often have time-sensitive issues that need to be handled efficiently. Whether the settlement proceeds are from a personal injury, wrongful death, workers’ compensation, or non-personal injury case, relevant issues must be properly addressed to prevent unnecessary delays. In fact, many decisions—such as whether to use a structured settlement annuity—must be made prior to finalizing the settlement. A structured settlement, effectively used, can bring about settlements that result in the satisfaction of all parties involved. Planning ahead adds an additional dimension to the process and allows participants to see issues and resolve them.
