You do not need a lawyer to complete a life settlement, although some sellers choose to consult one for peace of mind. The process is straightforward, and licensed brokers or marketplaces handle the administrative steps, paperwork, and coordination with buyers.
A lawyer can be helpful if the policy is owned inside a trust, if multiple family members are involved, or if there are estate-planning concerns.
Most sellers complete the transaction without legal representation, but the option is always available for those who want individual guidance or document review.
