When you accept a structured settlement, you’re adding confidence and certainty to your financial future. Each year, thousands of Americans turn to structured settlements because no other option has so many unique advantages.
Here are a few of the long-term benefits you’ll see with your structured annuity: tax-free income. No trust or management fees. Full payments even if you return to work.
Your right to these benefits stems from a 1983 federal law confirming that all financial compensation received on account of a physical injury is exempt from taxation. Since then, more than half a million people have chosen a structured settlement to guarantee steady future income.
No wonder many disability rights activists call structured settlements the smart choice for settling a case.

If I had to do it over again, I’d absolutely go with the structured settlement.”
