If the Defense Has Their Own Broker, How Will My Broker Be Paid?
Usually, the brokers work out an agreement to share the commission in some fair proportion. Only one commission is ever earned per case (no double-charges).
Formerly a subject of some disagreement (and hostility), the structured settlement industry has matured and most career practitioners observe cooperative commission sharing protocols (as in real estate transactions).
For clarity, it is probably a good idea to inquire as to your own brokers' standard and practices in this regard. |
