Plaintiff attorneys know better than anyone that achieving a settlement is only part of the journey. For injury victims with disabilities or long-term medical needs, securing a financial recovery is just the beginning, and collaborating with a settlement planner can determine whether that settlement truly supports the plaintiff for life, and can help avoid exposing the attorney to unnecessary risk. That is where Paramount Settlement Advisors steps in.
Paramount’s team includes three Chartered Special Needs Consultants (ChSNC®)—a highly specialized designation in the settlement planning world. The ChSNC® designation is recognized as one of the most advanced designations in the field, as it reflects mastery in special-needs planning, government benefit preservation, and long-term protection strategies for vulnerable plaintiffs and their families. It signals not only advanced expertise in identifying when to utilize special needs trusts, government benefits, ABLE accounts, and long-term financial planning, but also a commitment to compassionate, ethical guidance.
For plaintiff attorneys, partnering with Paramount means that your clients receive guidance that blends legal fluency, financial strategy, empathy, and decades of hands-on experience.
That is why more attorneys are choosing to collaborate with Paramount Settlement Advisors, home to three highly credentialed Chartered Special Needs Consultants (ChSNC®).
Below, we break down why this expertise—and Paramount’s unique, planning forward approach—has become a must for plaintiff firms who want to deliver a higher standard of care.
- Protecting Public Benefits Is Critical And Complex
Injury victims with disabilities often depend on Medicaid, SSI, SSDI, Medicare, or waiver programs. A poorly structured settlement—or misinformed guidance—can immediately terminate essential benefits.
Paramount’s Chartered Special Needs Consultants® consultants integrate:
- Special Needs Trust strategies
- Pooled trust coordination
- ABLE account planning
- Income and asset-limit analysis
- MSA and Medicare compliance
This ensures that plaintiffs keep what matters most: access to care, housing, therapies, and support.
- Paramount Brings a Compassionate, Plaintiff-Centered Approach
Injury victims and their families arriving at settlement are often overwhelmed. Paramount’s consultants excel at translating complex decisions into clear, relatable guidance. However, it is critical to start the planning process well in advance of settlement. We take time to understand:
- A family’s emotional needs
- Long-term care concerns
- The plaintiff goals and fears
- Their day-to-day challenges
We do our best to make your clients feel heard, supported, and respected—which reflects positively on you and your firm.
- Experienced Advisors for Catastrophic and High-Needs Cases
Paramount’s team has extensive experience with:
- Traumatic brain injuries
- Birth injuries
- Medical malpractice cases

- Developmental disabilities
- Wrongful death with disabled dependents
These real-world insights allows us to anticipate issues and craft plaintiff-specific settlement plans that truly last.
