So your case is settled. What happens next? Well, the insurance company is going to send the settlement check to our office, and that check is going to be deposited into our trust account. It’s going to remain in the trust account while we, your attorneys, begin to reach out to any party that may have an interest in your settlement funds. That means we’re going to reach out to any doctors to whom you may owe money and see if we can negotiate a reduction in the amount of money that you have to pay them back. We’re also going to investigate any claim from your health insurance company that they are entitled to reimbursement. We’re gonna look into their IRS Form 5500 filings to determine whether or not they are the type of plan that is entitled to be reimbursed out of your settlement. Once those boxes have been checked and we have confirmed who is entitled to receive any money out of your settlement and how much that money is. We will then issue those checks out of our trust account and then issue our payment out of the trust account. And then the remaining balance goes to you.
