How I Sold My Structured Settlement
A structured settlement sale can be an extremely helpful life decision. I used to work in the construction business. I was a very hard, reliable worker with good prospects to advance further in my future career. I always held my end of the contract, but unfortunately, my employer didn’t. They hadn’t inspected the elevator at the work site, and the cable gave out. I fell two stories, badly injuring my back. I took the company to court and was awarded what I thought was a good settlement: a schedule of structured payments, with the settlement to be paid out over 10 years. Meanwhile, my wife had our third child and so we had to move to a bigger house. That’s when I decided to take a structured settlement payout, cause I had to come up with money for the house.
