Welcome to Settlement Benefits Association

We are a dedicated team of professionals who specialize in maximizing the value of your policy.  We have substantial working relationships with the top licensed funding groups, and we are prepared to help you find the best options for your life insurance policy. 

As a professional Life Settlement broker, we take our fiduciary responsibility seriously by offering every client individualized attention. Our goal is to secure the maximum value on your Life Settlement.  Our data driven process creates immense competition amongst buyers and benefits you.  We stand by our commitment to privacy, giving you the security you need to make these essential decisions.

Why Sell Your Life Insurance Policy? 

Settlement Benefits Association primarily works with life insurance policy owners with a face value of $100,000 or greater. Some of the most common reasons people come to us for assistance include:

Changing life circumstances

Perhaps you simply do not need or want the life insurance policy you took out years ago. In this case, you can exchange premium costs for a lump sum of cash you can use right now.  It might be time to appraise your policy and consider your options.  Retirement, divorce, the death of a spouse, even the sale of a business can create new needs.

Expensive life insurance premiums 

As you get older, many life insurance products get more expensive.  Additionally, many carriers have recently raised their cost of insurance formulas, making policies cost more.  Many policy have underperformed initial projections.  When the premiums become unaffordable or just unattractive, selling a life insurance policy could be a better outcome.

Medical bills

Changing health circumstances can have tremendous financial implications and create financial toxicity.  Even with careful planning, a high-cost treatment or accident can throw anyone’s finances off schedule. Sometimes trading in your life insurance for a settlement is the best way to pay medical bills or medical debt. 

Retirement funding

Saving for retirement can be a challenge. Most people do not know how much they need until they retire. A Life Settlement can solve dwindling funds, allowing you to do more of what you want.

Whatever your reason, Settlement Benefits Association will work with you to get a cash settlement delivered in as little as 2-6 weeks. Learn more about whether you are eligible for a Life Settlement or Viatical Settlement and how you can prepare for the next stage in your life with new funds.  We even offer instant valuations with our Visual Valuator.

Praise from a Marketing GA in Weston, FL

“You guys are the true settlement gurus.”

“Your policy of letting me set my own commission has been perfectly suited for my agency. …

“Your policy of letting me set my own commission has been perfectly suited for my agency. It allows me to accomplish both of my goals simultaneously; meeting my clients needs and increasing my own income. Our last two deals are perfectly inverse examples. As you know, I didn’t take a large commission on the Hill Life Settlement, but I won big time by putting him into a new policy and a single premium annuity. Then again, the Lombardi case was the other end of the spectrum, since he was using the proceeds for something outside my office, I was able to take the commission I needed, and once again everybody was happy. Thanks again for making my life easier.”
