Structures for Attorneys
Non-Qualified Structured Settlements
“Since the annuity payments will not be taxed until the year in which the payments are received, the tax burden can be spread over a longer period, reducing the overall amount of taxes paid.”
Attorneys can chose to have structured annuity payments made payable directly to their firm. By opting for guaranteed monthly payments, our clients offset ongoing overhead expenses such as office space, payroll, bonuses, or employee healthcare. Structured annuity payments create a stabilizing stream of income for the practice.
Many of our attorney clients defer a portion of their fees until retirement age. Not only does this increase the amount of retirement income, the tax deferral benefits are greater since retirees are often in a lower tax bracket. The payments can be tailored to fill gaps in retirement planning and be set up for a short-term duration or as lifetime income. Structured annuities are a great way to diversify retirement investments without the risk of reductions due to a change in interest rates or market fluctuation.
Attorney fee structures can also plan and pay for larger life events such as children’s college education or paying off a home mortgage. With the flexibility to design the payments – anything from monthly payments for life, lumps sums for large purchases, and also being able to start payments now, or commencing in 20 years – our attorney clients can protect their family’s financial future.
