When should someone consider a Structured Settlement?
|
Structured settlements can be ideally suited for cases involving the following
situations:
* Temporarily or permanently disabled plaintiffs or claimants
* Guardianship cases, including minors or incompetents
* Wrongful death cases where the surviving spouse and/or children need monthly
or annual income
* Severe injury, especially with long-term needs for medical care, living
expenses and support of family
While there are many reasons a claimant would want a structure, one of the primary reasons
is that the growth of a claimant’s settlement is considered recovery of personal
injury damages, thus excluding these payments from gross income resulting in no
taxes paid. Since the rate of return of a structure on an after-tax basis is
close to the historical rate of stocks, one gets the investment value of the
highest earning investment over the last eighty years without the risk of other
investments. Plus, the claimant can pre-determine the outcome for the long term.
No other investment can make this guarantee. |
