"If you are receiving payments from a structured settlement, you have the right to turn those future annuity payments into cash now." claimed Real Wealth Daily
Ha Ha! It's not that easy
FALSE REALITY Abracadabra, just "like magic" you too can turn those future annuity payments into pennies on the dollar now?
Wikipedia defines a right as the legal or moral entitlement to do or refrain from doing something or to obtain or refrain from obtaining an action, thing or recognition in civil society.
The right you have with a structured settlement, is the right to receive the future periodic payments that were established in the settlement documents when you settled your case.
Generally that would include a settlement agreement and a qualified assignment. If you were a minor when the structured settlement was established a Court Order would've also applied.
That right to receive future periodic payments is one that you can factor or transfer IF a Court approves the transfer of payment right as being in your best interest as well as the best interest of any applicable dependents.
One of the rights that we actually do have in the United States is in the Bill of Rights, the 1st Amendment right to free speech and evidently I regularly enjoy exercising it!
