William Skyrm, CBC Settlement Funding, LLC CEO and Co-founder, commented, “We are thrilled by the show of support from our investors.

ABOUT STRUCTURED SETTLEMENTS

Structured settlements are commonly used in the settlement of personal injury lawsuits to spread payouts over 10, 20 or 30 years. The secondary market for structured settlement annuity transfers is a highly regulated market place offering clients liquidity options for otherwise inflexible assets. In 2002, Congress passed IRC 5891 affirming the tax benefits of structured settlements but requiring compliance with all applicable state or federal laws. Today, 48 states have enacted structured settlement protection acts requiring court review and approval of each structured settlement transfer.
