Then when i turned 25 a check for 12000 ,and when i turn 30 a check for 24,000 and when i turn 35 a check for 60,000 I was only 24 i think at this time..to my understanding i had made a deal with them to sell a portion of my checks of the 24000,and the 12,000 dollor checks for 17,900 i thought it wasnt a fair deal but i figured it was better than what i had at the time i was in hard spot then and said f**k it i had no choice at least i would be able to look foward to the last check for 60,000 my oldest son would be graduating that year and i knew he would have collage money for sure ,well transaction was made and a few years go by and i am interted in collecting the last payment since i am so close to recieveing it anyway i am told i have no more checks that i sold them already ,what i said no i did not i swear to god i did not do sucj a thing .But they say they have paper work thats says i did .well someone lied to me then somewhere and i dont know what judge would have ok a deal like that to be done who would sell 94,ooo dollors for 17,900 come on whothat is so obsurde i cant believe it ,someone please tell me this is not possible that there is a way to investagate ,please that would have beeen a total deal with the devil who would let someone do that to a person please tell me if i can find out who the judge was and if this is for real i believe i was tricked and i never saw a jugde i think the contact was kinked bysomeone i did not agree to or was even aware of that kind of deal that was not the deal i thought i was making what can if anything be done. sincerly amanda

If you received a settlement for an accident at age eight you were a minor and not able to legally agree to anything. Somebody had to agree to the Wentworth deal. After you became an adult, did you agree to the Wentworth deal? If so, you would have received paperwork which details the terms. What does that paperwork say? Did you read it BEFORE you signed it? Did you get any counsel before you agreed to it?

I would like to help you but I cannot in all honesty read your report. If you can find a Consumer Attorney who deals with these types of cases call that person. Also research JG Wentworth scams as well.
