What are the benefits of a Structured Settlement to the claimant/plaintiff?
Structured settlements provide guaranteed streams of income to the claimant/plaintiff that are completely tax-free. The claimant/plaintiff avoids the risk of mismanagement of their funds which can result in financial loss and hardship. This security and stability enables the claimant/plaintiff to have peace of mind, knowing that their payments will be received on the scheduled dates, and further allows them to tailor the annuity to meet their specific life needs in the future. With the use of a lifetime annuity, a claimant/plaintiff can ensure that he/she will never outlive the stream of income as the payments will continue until the time of death.
