The McKellar Structured Settlement™

The McKellar Structured Settlement™ is a process overseen by many McKellar professionals, each providing the same superior attention to detail every step of the way.

This process includes:

The extensive experience of our structure consultants provides you with the very best technical advice and service. Our team includes lawyers, casualty professionals and accounting professionals, all with many years of experience in the industry. We are available any time, to provide comprehensive structure advice in your home or office, or at mediations and settlement meetings - all without any charge to you.

Our involvement often begins long before a claim has settled. From the time we are first contacted, until the day we close our file, every step in the process receives the same attention to detail.

The specialists in our Brokerage Department run and verify hundreds of structure quotations each day, to ensure that we deliver on our promise to obtain the highest income, or lowest cost, for every structured settlement.

To assist casualty insurers with OSFI reporting, our Brokerage Specialists provide periodic structure activity reports and annual year-end valuations of their structure obligations.

Our commitment to centralized quality assurance is a key to our success. Our Quality Assurance Specialists verify the accuracy of our work for every aspect of a file, from the initial illustrations to the final structure contract.

Documents relating to structured settlements are very different from those used in cases involving lump-sum settlements.

McKellar is the only structure firm in Canada with a full-time Legal Department. We ensure that your settlement documents and structure contract conform with Canada Revenue Agency requirements for tax-free payments.

This legal review protects the injured person, the lawyers, and the company funding the settlement as well.

Our Post-Funding process ensures that each file moves smoothly from structure funding through to the delivery of our Final Report.

This process includes:

  • Preparation and delivery of structured settlement application
  • Preparation and circulation of Assignment & Assumption Agreement (if necessary)
  • Arranging direct deposit of structure payments
  • Final review of the issued structure contract
  • Preparation of final report, providing appropriate documentation for each party
  • Issuance of our Corporate Guarantee

Since 1979, McKellar has issued an unconditional Guarantee with every completed structured settlement. This Guarantee is our promise to you that the structured settlement is tax free and prepared in compliance with Canada Revenue Agency requirements.

We are the only structured settlement company that has a dedicated Client Services/Estates Department, staffed by two full-time representatives. These specialists are your liaisons with the life insurance companies – available to answer questions and assist with any structure-related inquiries.

This commitment to ongoing client service lasts for as long as each structure does, and all without any charge to you.
