Quick Answer
Quick Answer: Can You Sell Your Structured Settlements in Baltimore?
Yes. Baltimore residents can sell some or all of their future structured settlement payments for a lump sum of cash. A Maryland judge reviews every sale under Md. Code, Cts. & Jud. Proc. § 5-1101 et seq., transfers typically complete in about 60 days, and quotes are free with no obligation.
Why Sell Your Structured Settlement in Baltimore?
Medical debt, a roof that cannot wait, a business that needs working capital, or credit cards charging far more than any annuity earns: these are the situations that bring Baltimore payment holders to us. A structured settlement was designed around the life you had when the case ended, and Maryland law recognizes that circumstances change, which is why it created a formal path to sell.
That path runs through Md. Code, Cts. & Jud. Proc. § 5-1101, Maryland's Structured Settlement Protection Act. A circuit court judge must review your transfer and find it in your best interest before any money moves. Because Baltimore City is independent of Baltimore County, city residents file in the Circuit Court for Baltimore City, not the county court.
Plan on roughly 60 days from contract to cash. Maryland builds in 20 days advance notice to all interested parties, requires independent professional advice before your hearing, and insists that the discount rate, net advance amount, and all fees appear in writing before a judge will consider the petition.
Your quote here is prepared with the discount rate stated in writing, and the transaction is funded and completed by our partner Genex Capital once the court approves. See how the process works step by step.
Simple, Transparent Process
Your written quote spells out exactly which payments you are selling, the purchase price, and the discount rate. No surprises at any step, and you owe nothing if the court does not approve.

Where Your Transfer Is Filed in Baltimore
Baltimore transfers are heard by the Circuit Court for Baltimore City at the Clarence M. Mitchell, Jr. Courthouse, 100 N Calvert St, Baltimore, MD 21202. Because the city is legally separate from Baltimore County, city residents file here rather than in the county's circuit court. A judge examines the petition under Md. Code, Cts. & Jud. Proc. § 5-1101 and must conclude the sale is in your best interest before signing an order. All interested parties receive 20 days advance notice, and independent professional advice is required before the hearing. Expect the hearing itself to be short, usually a handful of direct questions about your reasons and your understanding of the terms.

Selling Structured Settlements in Baltimore - FAQ
What are the steps to sell a structured settlement in Baltimore?
Four steps. First, get a free quote with the discount rate disclosed in writing. Second, sign your documents by DocuSign or with a notary, both at no charge. Third, the partner legal team files the petition with the Circuit Court for Baltimore City and handles the hearing logistics. Fourth, funding is released about 3 business days after the judge approves.
How long does court approval take in Maryland?
Most Maryland transfers finish in about 60 days from start to funding. The statute requires 20 days advance notice to every interested party before a hearing can occur, and you must complete an independent professional advice session as well, so even a clean file has a built-in floor on how fast it can move.
Where will my hearing be held in Baltimore?
At the Clarence M. Mitchell, Jr. Courthouse, 100 N Calvert St, in downtown Baltimore. City residents appear before a Circuit Court for Baltimore City judge, not a Baltimore County judge. Hearings are brief. The judge will confirm your identity, your reasons for selling, and that you received the required disclosures and advice.
Do I need my own lawyer to sell payments in Maryland?
You are not required to hire one. The partner legal team prepares and files the court petition as part of the transaction. Maryland does require you to receive independent professional advice before the hearing, which puts a professional in your corner at no obligation to the buyer, and you are always free to bring your own attorney too.
