Life doesn't always go according to plan. So what happens when someone's financial needs change after a structured settlement is already in place?

In this episode of Ringler Radio, Host Matt Ross sits down with Ruben Soliz, Business Development Relationship Manager at USAA. We tackle commutation—a lesser-known but potentially valuable feature that can add flexibility to a structured settlement. We'll break down what commutation really means, how it works, and why understanding this option can make a meaningful difference when planning for the future.

Whether you're an attorney, claims professional, or settlement planner, this conversation sheds light on an important consideration that could change the way you think about structured settlement planning.
