Structured Settlements
When you were first awarded a structured settlement, it was deemed to be in your best interest. Most likely it was in your best interest at the time. Time changes things and your needs may be different now.
You can receive cash for your settlement when
you are over the age of 18 and
the settlement is not your only means of support
the settlement was not specified to pay for current medical needs
your attorney concurs that selling your settlement will not have an adverse effect on your livelihood (may or may not be required)
Worker's compensation with or without an annuity also may be funded, subject to some state restrictions.
If someone tells you that you cannot sell your settlement, here is clarification. You cannot sell the annuity that was purchased by the entity (often an insurance company) to provide the payments to you. The settlement awarded you the "right to receive payments". It is your "right to receive payments" that you can sell.
