Structured Settlements

Turn a settlement into a schedule of payments that supports long-term stability, budgeting, and milestone planning.

What it means

A structured settlement is a way to receive funds as scheduled payments, often used to match long-term needs. The structure can help with budgeting, stability, and reducing the risk of spending a lump sum too quickly.

Common reasons to structure

  • Predictable income for living costs
  • Planning around education or care needs
  • Long-term stability for a family
  • Aligning payments with major milestones

Key choices

  • Payment timing (monthly, annual, lump sum)
  • Duration (how many years)
  • Indexing / inflation features (plan-dependent)
  • Beneficiary and estate considerations
