CLAIMS ADMINISTRATION

Qualified Settlement Funds
Qualified Settlement Funds (QSF) can be very useful in a personal injury lawsuit. Created under Section 468B of the Internal Revenue Code, this type of fund is a “parking lot” for the immediate receipt of the entire settlement amount. By funding a QSF, constructive receipt issues that could jeopardize the tax-free nature of the settlement are avoided.
Benefits for the Attorney
- Control of funds while negotiating liens, determining distributions and preserving Medicaid and Supplemental Security Income (SSI)
- Eliminates interference from the defendant during the claims administration process
- Lower risk of insolvency or non-payment by the defendant
Benefits for the Plaintiff
- Protection of qualified tax-exempt status of settlement proceeds
- Freedom to make decisions about investments and distribution options without worrying about the defendant
- Maintenance of eligibility for Medicaid benefits in the period of time before a Special Needs Trust is created
