Once an order is made on a settlement ~ can the settlement be done in structured payments without first letting the court know that is the intent?
Is there anything the attorney can do? What if we don't want a structured settlement?
None of this was mentioned in the court ~ the total payouts were listed and signed off and we were told the check would arrive in 3 to 6 weeks. We received 25% ~ I did some math and it looks as though they are going to pay this out over the course of two years.
3rd Party Managed ~ all medical bills paid directly to providers ~ call into the attorney now ~ call to 3rd party ~ they intend to pay out future 182 weeks ~ as WEEKLY payments ~ settlement was offered as lump sum ~ not future ~ but thank you for the reply.
On a side note ~ you can't even sell this type of settlement in the state of NJ.
