Great Questions. I would ask the same things. Answering is not easy because those broad questions get specific answers based on each custom transaction.
"How long does it take to get my lump sum from your company?"
It depends on what product you have. A note,an annuity, a structured settlement, a lottery...
"Is it a long and complicated process?"
I don't mean to be cheeky but long and complicated are relative terms. For us, the process is shorter and simpler than ever. For a customer who needs their money, 2 days and a notary signature could feel long and complicated.
"Does it need to go to court?"
Most every structured settlement transaction will go to court.
The other products may not need or probably will not need a court date.
"Does it cost me any money?"
I can answer this one! Probably not. We try to cover every expense to reduce your financial burden. But sometimes there are expenses incurred by a client seeking a lump sum payout.
"What do I need to know about starting this process?"
Again it varies by product, but it never hurts to have relative documents, and
a plan for the cash.
