Consult A Lawyer

It is wise to consult a lawyer in relation to the sale of your settlement before signing a contract. A lawyer can help ensure that your rights are protected, and that you will not be subject to consequences for events outside of your control, for example if the company which purchases your settlement is later unable to collect payments from the insurance company which issued the annuities in your settlement package. A lawyer will be able to tell you if the terms of the purchase agreement are reasonable, and may also be able to advise you as to whether the offer made for your settlement is adequate.
