Q&A with Lindsey

What’s the difference between a viatical settlement and a life settlement?

Viatical settlements are financial solutions meant for terminally ill candidates of any age with a life expectancy of less than five years. Life settlements are for those who are not terminally ill — they simply no longer have a need or want for life insurance coverage.

What legal documents are usually included in a well-rounded estate plan?

Most basic estate plans include a will, power of attorney, advance directive and trust. 

How much is a promissory note worth?

A promissory note’s worth varies depending on the present value, expected payments and how much you intend to sell. The buyer can purchase the entire note or make a partial note purchase.
