So, you live in New York and you want to sell your New York structured settlement? New York law requires the sale to be in your “best interest” and “fair and reasonable.” But who determines this? The judge. In New York, like almost every other state, the sale of a structured settlement requires advance court approval. Without it, your sale will not be considered valid. So before your sale can be final, you will have to bring the proposed transfer before a New York judge for approval. Getting that approval in requires you working with an experienced New York Structured Settlement Buyer.
What needs to happen for my proposed sale to be approved?
A court in New York will have to make sure that your proposed sale meets certain requirements as set out by New York law. For example, the buyer of structured settlement payments in New York that you are working with must have sent you a disclosure notice and you must have been afforded an opportunity to seek the advice of an independent professional. Other than these requirements, which are pretty easy to meet, the harder part is convincing the court that your proposed transfer is in your best interest and that it is fair and reasonable.
What kind of sale is in my “best interest”?
The court will look at your financial situation and whether there is a need for the lump sum amount you will receive from the sale. The court will heavily consider what you intend to spend the money on. Generally, if you have serious expenses and don’t have money saved up and need the lump sum to fund these expenses, then the court will consider the sale to be in your best interest. The following are some acceptable reasons to sell your New York structured payments:
