MetLife Structured Settlements

MetLife is a Lincoln, NE and New York-based financial services company that pays claimants according to the terms of their structured settlement annuities. Structured annuities provide future payments on behalf of defendants or their insurers in personal injury, wrongful death, and workers’ compensation cases. Claimants and their lawyers may agree to payments over time to help claimants manage their money or support their needs over a long period of time.

No, structured settlement payments that are based on physical injury, wrongful death, and worker’s compensation are not normally taxable. The tax status of a particular annuity may be found in the annuity contract or confirmed by contacting a team member at MetLife.

Yes, you can sell your MetLife structured settlement payment rights. Selling payments will result in the rights holder receiving less money than that contracted payment amount because of factors like the time value of money, transaction fees, and profit margin.
