Structured Settlements

 A Structured Settlement   is a stream of periodic payments that an injured party in a litgated or negotiated dispute may take instead of or along with a lump-sum payment to settle the claim.

 

 

Structured Settlements can plan an important role in the claimant's overall settlement planning.  Structures are very flexible in their initial design and enjoy special tax treatment under sections 104(a)(2) and 130 of the Internal Revenue Code.  ALL payments under structured settlement annuities are received INCOME TAX FREE.
