What is a good settlement amount from an insurance company for a wrongful death in a car accident?
Q. My aunt was killed in a car accident by a drunk driver and now the insurance company is going to offer a settlement.
Asked by agentsjk - Sat Jul 14 22:04:14 2007 - - 3 Answers - 0 Comments

A. First, so sorry for your loss. I am 100% sure the company will offer the policy limits. If this is a small amount, then her spouse or children or closest relative can put her policy on notice for underinsured motorists. Hopefully she had good limits (at least $300,000 or $500,000). If she had a personal umbrella policy with uninsured motorists coverage, the heirs can possibly go after that too. I sure would. Her insurance company will then go after the drunk driver personally to compensate them for any amounts they paid out (because they won't pay until his limits are exhausted, so he would pay the additional out of pocket if he has any assets and/or a decent job). Hate to say this but the younger & healthier she was, the more the… [cont.]

What are the qualifications for a good life settlement candidate?
Q. My father is 82 and I think a senior life settlement may be a viable option for him, but I'm not sure. What are the qualifications for a good life settlement candidate?
Asked by Tara G - Wed Aug 5 17:19:20 2009 - - 2 Answers - 0 Comments

A. A life settlement can be beneficial for many seniors, and it very well may be a great opportunity for your father. However, every situation is unique and a life settlement should be carefully considered relative to your father s and family s situation. In general, the ideal candidate for a senior life settlement is someone who is 70 years or older, is the owner of the policy, and has had the policy for a minimum of two years, so its very likely your father will be able to sell his policy. I strongly recommend you discuss the available options with a life settlement broker who can further evaluate if a life settlement is a good option for your father based on his own financial situation.

Asked by Russ M - Fri Sep 7 00:39:41 2007 - - 4 Answers - 5 Comments

A. Most of the debt repair/consolation/settle ment companies want their fees up front and leave you credit trashed. Check nfcc.org for listings legit non-profit credit counseling services. They can help you set up a budget and work out clearing up your debt. You can tackle your debt yourself by putting every extra penny on the highest interest rate debt, while making minimum payments on the rest. When the highest is paid, move to the next, till they are all paid off. It will take 2 or 3 years but if you work at it, you'll be out of debt with a good payment history.

I just paid off a settlement offer on a credit card. How does that affect my credit report?
Q. I realize that a settlement is less desirable than payment in full, but I also know it's better than leaving the account unresolved. But what will the actual impact be on my credit? The settlement was for about 10% of the account which had been in collections for almost 9 years.
Asked by Justin H - Thu Nov 20 13:55:24 2008 - - 5 Answers - 0 Comments

A. It will immediately help a little bit since your total debt to credit ratio will improve. However, the missed payments and failure to keep your account current for 9 years will remain on your credit report for quite a while. Essentially, think about it like this. If I am going to lend you money, I'd be a little happy that you don't have collections outstanding because there aren't people who could file a judgement against you. But I'd be cautious since your payment record was less than good.

A. Most claims for minors have to be court approved. In my state - any claim where the minor gets over 2500 has to be approved by the court. There will be court papers outlining the settlement. The settlements vary. Some courts require a guardian be appointed and specify that the money be held in a specific account. The money can only be released with the permission of the courts. Some minors claims are settled as a structured settlement - (in essence an annuity). If the claim is under 2500 then the parents are paid as parents and guardians of the minor and sign a release stating that they will hold the money in trust for the minor. If the case required court approval - have the mother or who ever was named guardian -contact the clerk of… [cont.]

A. "The Maya civilization shares many features with other Mesoamerican civilizations due to the high degree of interaction and cultural diffusion that characterized the region. Advances such as writing, epigraphy, and the calendar did not originate with the Maya; however, their civilization fully developed them. Maya influence can be detected as far as central Mexico, more than 1000 km (625 miles) from the Maya area.

What are the rules governing settlement awards to minor children in Massachusetts?
Q. My son was injured in a bus accident in Massachusetts. We have reached a settlement with the bus company, which I know as to be approved by the court. We would like to use the money to pay his school tuition (he attends parochial elementary school). Is something like this possible or does the money have to be held in trust until he turns 18? We've heard conflicting info. We wouldn't even mind having the bus company pay the school directly if that would work.
Asked by Kate G - Wed Apr 22 20:13:03 2009 - - 2 Answers - 0 Comments

A. There is no rule as such. If the settlement includes payment of costs for future care, a trust is often the best way to make sure the money is there. If the settlement is for lost earning capacity and the amount is large, again, it is better to put it into a trust, from which it can be available over his lifetime. Otherwise, as his parents, it is up to you to spend the money for his benefit as you see fit. The bus company may not want to pay the school directly.

Will debt settlement ruin my chances at getting a new job?
Q. I am going to go through a debt settlement with my significant other as an alternative to bankruptcy. We're both young, and planning on advancing in our careers. Would a debt settlement work against our odds of landing the perfect job, even if we are the most qualified??
Asked by SMCL - Wed Mar 26 16:22:24 2008 - - 4 Answers - 1 Comments

A. Possibly, but less so than a bankruptcy would. Many companies now check credit records. Various HR studies have shown that on average, people that maintain their credit the best also tend to be the best employees (for various reasons- they have less drama at home, they are more organized, they can manage resources better, or whatever). So if it negatively impacts your credit, it may keep you from getting a job, at least until it washes off your record in about 7 years time. But like I said, I'd far rather have debt settlement on there than a bankruptcy.

A. If you want to stay fairly liquid, consider laddering some CDs or US Treasuries. Search for "CD laddering" to find information on how this is done. Essentially, you just buy several smaller CDs with varying terms (can be at different banks, to spread risk and get best rates). Maybe buy a 3 month, 6 month, one year, three year, and five year. As the first one matures, if you don't need the cash just buy another 5 year. In three months, the 6 month you bought matures. If you still don't need the cash, reinvest it for 5 years. Ultimately, you will end up with a bunch of 5 year CDs, each earning the best interest at the time they were purchased, and having one mature every three months.

A. the fair settlement is that the person who gets the house takes over the mortgage and finishes paying on it while the other person is given something else that is of equal value to their equity in the house. if neither of you can afford to keep the house after divorce then you need to talk to a real estate lawyer about a short sell on the house and then the two of you negotiate a lower payment with the bank on what is left on the house and split the debt between the two of you.
