“Personal injury victims and their family members can control their financial destiny, TAX FREE!”

A structured settlement is an opportunity available only with a personal injury claim to cover present and future needs. The structure is purchased by the defendant for the injured party through EPS Settlements Group. Currently, the claimant pays no federal, state, or local income taxes on structured settlement payments when designed in compliance with Section 104(a)(2) of the Internal Revenue Code. (Also see Revenue Ruling 79-220).

Structures guarantee, in writing, a good secure rate of return as well as wise money management.

Structures eliminate management fees which are typically required to successfully invest and manage money over long periods of time.

Structured settlements are paid from an annuity established with high quality life companies with proven long-term performance. This means the life company invests carefully to meet their future obligations. These large life companies are all rated by A/A+/A++ “Superior” by A. M. Best Company and other rating organizations.

A structured settlement creates a safe, economically effective investment that protects your financial security and provides more benefits over time. Tax free payments along with the management free, predictable stream of income makes the structure an excellent alternative to the cash only settlement.

Structured settlements offer payment method flexibility. Payments can be scheduled monthly, quarterly, semi-annually, annually, or lump sums at specified dates for a certain period of time or for even a lifetime.

Structured settlements meet specific needs of injured people by replacing lost income, making house payments, funding college education, supplementing retirement and paying continuing medical care.
