WHO WE ARE The Society of Settlement Planners (SSP) is the professional trade organization for those who engage in settlement planning. The SSP is focused on building the profession of settlement planning through regular collaboration of its members and annual conferences. SSP members include settlement planners, structured settlement specialists, attorneys, product providers, and other professionals. Settlement planning focuses on helping injury victims meet their needs and goals after they receive a legal settlement. SSP members work with the injured party to create a comprehensive and integrated settlement plan. OUR MISSION The Society of Settlement Planners has a simple vision: to provide professional, comprehensive settlement advice to all recipients of legal settlements. The mission statement of the SSP states that SSP members are “devoted to advising legal professionals and their clients in the negotiation, design and funding of legal settlements, addressing the diverse needs of injury victims and their families while maintaining available public and private assistance programs and promoting the proper application of, and safeguards for, the tax and financial remedies afforded recipients of tort recoveries.”
