Maximize Your Law Firm’s Resources
Rather than burdening your law firm’s already taxed resources, engage your settlement consultant as early as possible. In addition to providing tax-advantaged structured settlement and attorney fee deferral options, your settlement consultant is also the nexus of the entire realm of settlement experts, including:
- Lien resolution specialists to negotiate and resolve outstanding liens;
- Government benefit counselors to preserve needs-based government benefits;
- Elder law attorneys to draft wills and estate plans;
- Medicare Set-Aside experts to provide opinion letters, allocation recommendations, funding options, and professional MSA administration;
- Trust companies that provide first-party special needs trusts, pooled trusts, wealth management, and minors’ trusts; and
- Funding options for non-U.S. citizens
Our team can help you streamline your caseload and resolve settlements more effectively. Learn more about our full portfolio of settlement services here.
