​​What Is a Structured Settlement in New York?

A structured settlement provides New York plaintiffs with core income stability with safety, security and guarantees from well capitalized New York licensed life insurance companies*, Index Linked, or Treasury Funded Structured Settlement payments. A structured settlement is like getting a paycheck from a"job" that you can never be laid off or fired from.  That's just one reason why New York plaintiffs choose structured settlements for part of their recovery.

How Are Structured Settlements Taxed in New York?

Structured settlement payments are income tax-free, IF the structured settlement payments represent payment of damages from personal physical injury, physical sickness, wrongful death or workers compensation under IRC §104(a)(1) or IRC §104(a)(2), or wrongful imprisonment/ wrongful conviction under IRC §139F.

Structured settlements established for the payment of taxable damages in New York, such as for wrongful termination, discrimination or harassment in employment, or intellectual property, offer tax deferral, which is also a big benefit.

*Have a look at our Structured Settlement Company Museum on Pinterest for some really cool vintage images about the companies that back structured settlements. Companies that have been around a long time for your long term payments. Some of the things you will see in the Structured Settlement Company Museum, are Prudential Insurance Company ads from the 1800s, a picture of the MetLife building being constructed in 1905, ads from different insurance companies that your parents, grandparents, great-grandparents, or even great-great grandparents may have seen when they were younger, trivia like why Prudential stopped using its slogan "get a piece of the Rock", see a copy of the luncheon menu for the New York Life Diamond Jubilee, in 1905 (New York Life Insurance Company was founded in 1845, before the Civil War!).
