Structured Settlement Annuity Payments








Structured settlement cases have increased, and largely due to the maximum settlement awards in many lawsuits. When an individual has been the victim of an injury, directly related to the fault of a large company or corporation, the settlement deemed appropriate by the courts, is usually so large, the settlement is handled through annuity payments.
Annuity payments are divided into increments over a long period of time, sometimes over the lifetime of a claim recipient. The injured or affected parties in a settlement case usually have suffered over a long term rehabilitating process and the structured settlement annuity payments work well in providing timely access to funds needed by the injured party.
Often, in structured settlement cases, the initial annuity payments assist the injured parties to make current restitution with their accumulated medical bills, but as time goes on,the lost wages the injured party incurs, leaves a shortfall in ongoing daily expenses. Having to wait on the scheduled annuity payments becomes stressful and this actually affects the injured persons healing process in a negative manner. Adding stress or insult to injury prolongs the battle of recovery.
Once an injured party has suffered persistent stress and anxiety over their recovery time and financial concerns, they begin to reconsider if their installment payments are their best solution. They realize they do have options available to sell their structured settlement for a lump sum amount. There are companies and a few individuals willing to buy their annuity payments at a discount percentage of the total remaining value.
If a recipient of annuity payments is willing to accept a lesser total amount in a lump sum, in order to collect a final but larger immediate settlement, then the buyer of the note benefits from the entire remaining amount of the structured settlement.
