Warning: Recently, phony structured settlement blogs and other forms of websites have been illegally and unethically using our corporate and domain names to attract internet traffic to their websites for profit. These illicit individuals have "pay per click" advertising revenue sharing arrangements with companies such as Google and Yahoo, etc. and they are using our high profile and sterling reputation to attract people to other websites for the so-called "buyers" of structured settlement payments.

Not only does The Halpern Group condemn this marketing practice but also, more importantly, we are publicly opposed to the entire concept of plaintiffs selling their payments. We have seen many examples of this practice wherein the plaintiff only receives 25% to 40% of fair market value when they sell their periodic payments. A properly designed plan for the management of the plaintiff's recovery would eliminate the need to liquidate the fixed periodic payments (in case of an emergency) while making it impossible for the plaintiff to imprudently squander their recovery.

No Halpern Group Structured Settlement would be vulnerable to this type of attack by vultures who prey upon the human weaknesses of already injured people.

Corporate Information

The premier innovator in the field of plaintiff-side Structured Settlements, the Halpern Group is dedicated to using its expertise and experience to balance the scales of justice. It does so by providing plaintiff's counsel with the requisite professional business perspective, negotiation support, strategic assistance and settlement consulting services. These are the same services that are routinely provided to defense counsel by the liability carrier or corporate risk-management personnel. In so doing, The Halpern Group aims to ally its efforts to those of the plaintiff's bar, in ensuring just redress for injury under the American civil justice system.

For over twenty years Richard Halpern and the Halpern Group have followed the above tenets, and have successfully worked with attorneys and the clients throughout the United States

Who We Are

In this day and age, and as lines blur regarding structured settlements: structured settlement brokers with traditional allegiances to the defense side are now, in ever increasing numbers, purporting to be plaintiff's consultants. 

How can you tell where their true interests lie and avoid having a conflict of interest possibly hurt your client?  By understanding how a plaintiff-only structured settlement consultant works for you.

The Halpern Group are truly plaintiffs-only structured settlement consultants.  This  is evidenced by the fact that we have absolutely no ties to the insurance industry*:

  • We do not work for the liability carriers;
     
  • We do not represent the structured settlement annuity carriers;  
     
  • We do not support either of the above who notoriously support tort reform.
     

Any structured settlement consultant or broker who cannot make the same claim is a conflict of interest waiting to happen.

*To assure you that your client's best interest is our ONLY concern, the Halpern Group will  provide you with a sworn affidavit stating that we have no ties to the Insurance Industry.  


Will any other Structured Settlement consultant/broker do the same?
