Insurance Settlements & Checks
Insurer settlement processes can be confusing. We ensure settlements are fair and checks are properly structured to cover medical liens and future needs.
Insurance settlement processes involve complex negotiations between multiple parties including insurance companies, medical providers, and legal representatives. Understanding the process is crucial for fair compensation.
Insurance companies often attempt to minimize payouts. We review settlement offers, negotiate structured settlements when appropriate, and ensure medical liens and subrogation are handled correctly.
Settlement oversight
- • Settlement structures can vary from lump sum to structured payments.
- • Medical liens can often be reduced by 15-30% through negotiation.
- • Settlement processing typically takes 3-6 months for distribution.
- • Personal injury settlements are generally not taxable income.
We advise on settlement taxes, lien negotiations, and whether a lump-sum or structured option best serves your long-term needs.
