Structured Settlements
Many people have been compensated for injuries sustained in an accident Until 1982, such compensation was usually accomplished by payment in a lump sum. A change in Federal law that year created what are now known as structured settlements, an alternative to lump-sum payments where the injured party receives monthly or annual payments over a period of time.
A structured settlement can offers several advantages over a one-time, lump sum payout. With a structured settlement, the security of long-term income is guaranteed. If the victim is confined to a wheel chair or needs constant bed rest and nursing attention, a structured settlement can make certain that sufficient funds will be in hand to pay for the care. This allows the patient and/or their family to concentrate on health care without having to be overly concerned with the machinations of investing a lump-sum payment.
Structured Settlements allow income to be spread over time, which is safer than a lump sum payment. Studies have shown that some 30% of those who receive lump-sum payments as compensation for accident or injury spend the money within two months, and some 90% have spent the money within five years.
A lump-sum payout must be invested and administered. Unless the victim or their family has experience investing large amounts of money, they will have to hire a financial advisor to handle the sum. Any returns on the invested money are taxable, and there is always the risk of handing the investment to the wrong person and having the money simply disappear due to theft or mismanagement.
A structured settlement can prevent this. The income from a structured settlement is tax-free, both at the Federal and state levels. Because the money is handed out in smaller increments, there is less need for a financial advisor. And with no financial advisor, there is less of a chance of theft or loss of the funds, which would leave the victim without financial aid or income.
Structured settlements are often ideal under the following circumstances:
Guardianship cases where the victim dies and leaves minor children. A structured settlement can insure that funds are available for food, housing and education for the surviving family members.
Workers compensation cases where the injured party is unable to work for a protracted length of time. A structure will allow steady income to insure that the victim and their family will continue to have steady income.
Disabilities of a temporary or permanent nature that require extensive health care or recovery time.
The party that pays in an accident or injury case can benefit from payments over time, as they can set up an annuity to pay the funds over time. The funds are invested with the payments coming out of the proceeds. It’s “hands off” for the paying party, and they typically pay out a smaller amount of money in present dollars than if they paid in a lump sum.
There are many things to consider if you are in a position to receive a large amount of compensation for injury or accident. One of the options may involve payments over time. Before you act, you should learn as much as you can about structures in order to determine if such an agreement is right for you. As always, should you find yourself in such a situation, you should consult with a financial advisor and/or a competent attorney. The last thing you want to do is deal with a crisis without adequate help.

Peritoneal Mesothelioma (Abdominal Mesothelioma)
Malignant peritoneal mesotheliomais an extremely rare condition. Only 100 to 500 cases are diagnosed in the US each year, making up less than 30% of all mesothelioma cases.
Peritoneal mesothelioma is a cancer affecting the abdominal lining, or peritoneum (paira-tin-e-um), which is why is is sometimes referred to as abdominal mesothelioma. This membrane supports and covers the organs of the abdomen.
The peritoneum is made of two parts, the visceral and parietal peritoneum. The visceral peritoneum covers the internal organs and makes up most of the outer layer of the intestinal tract. Covering the abdominal cavity is the parietal peritoneum.
Cells in these linings secrete a fluid which allows organs to move against one another. For instance, as the intestines move food through the body. The cells of the mesothelium are designed to create fluid, but the cancer causes them to overproduce, creating a build up of excess fluid in the abdominal cavity.
Because pleural mesothelioma is more common and often spreads to the peritoneal cavity, it is important to determine if pleural mesothelioma is the primary cancer.

Wisconsin's lemon law
If the motor vehicle you buy or lease turns out to be a "lemon," the manufacturer has to replace it free or refund the price (minus a reasonable amount for mileage).
What is a "lemon"?
A new vehicle - no more than a year old and still under warranty - is a "lemon" if
It has a serious defect the dealer can't fix in four tries, or
It has one or many defects that prevent you from using it for 30 days or more (the 30 days need not be consecutive)
What is a defect?
A defect covered by the Lemon Law must seriously affect the use, value or safety of your vehicle and must be covered by the warranty. An irritating rattle may not be "serious" enough to make your car a lemon. Stalling probably is.
What vehicles are covered?
The law covers any new car, truck, motorcycle or motor home you buy or lease, even if you register the vehicle in another state. It also covers a demonstrator or executive vehicle.
How long are you covered?
The lemon law includes no deadline for filing a lemon law suit; a court would decide if your case were too old.
Is your vehicle a lemon?
Your vehicle is a lemon if all of the following statements are true:
You bought or leased a new vehicle.
The vehicle is a car, truck, motorcycle or motor home.
The vehicle developed a defect or defects during its first year and before the warranty expired.
The defect seriously harms the vehicle's use, value or safety.
One of the following happened during the vehicle's first year and before the warranty expired:
The dealer failed four times to fix the same defect; OR
The vehicle was out of service for 30 days or more due to defects
