In this video podcast featuring Joe Jamail, one of the legendary trial lawyers of the past century, the Legal Broadcast Network joins with NSSTA to capture the thoughts and concepts of Joe Jamail on the importance of structured settlements. Structured settlements are used in personal injury cases to help plan and protect the financial assets and awards of settlement recipients and court award winners. Often lawyers feel their responsibility to their client ends upon obtaining a settlement or verdict, but for the client the battle has just begun to determine the best way to handle their money. A structured settlement, in the opinion of Joe Jamail, is the single best means of taking care of the financial needs of an injured client and protecting them from financial hucksters, con men and factoring firms that would want to cash in this money. Joe Jamail is Texas Trial Lawyer personified and his advocacy of structured settlements is remarkable. If you are a trial lawyer, a judge, a claims professional, law student or settlement professional you need to view and share this video.
