Maryland does not let a company buy structured settlement payment rights without first registering with the Attorney General, and registration comes with a filing: a $100,000 bond in favour of the State under Cts. & Jud. Proc. § 5-1109, or a matching letter of credit or cash deposit. The bond is $1,000 flat — the price you see is the checkout price — and the credit consent in the application authorizes a soft pull only.
















The bond is the filing that turns an accepted registration into a working one, so most transferees do it the same day. Here is the entire process:
Entity details, your contact person, an effective date, and a term. No financial statements are attached — the credit consent in the form authorizes a soft inquiry only.
This bond is checkout-priced at $1,000 flat, so it issues the moment you pay. Your executed bond and power of attorney generate on the spot.
Send the executed bond to the Office of the Attorney General with your registration or renewal application. Wet-ink original mailed on request.
A structured settlement transferee is the company that buys future settlement payments from an injured person at a discount. Maryland governs those transactions under the Structured Settlement Protection Act, Courts and Judicial Proceedings Article Title 5, Subtitle 11, and layers a registration regime on top of the court approval each individual transfer already needs: under § 5-1107, a person may not file a petition to transfer structured settlement payment rights unless registered with the Attorney General as a transferee, or holding a pending application.
Section 5-1109 is the financial-responsibility half of that registration. On accepting registration the transferee files a bond executed by an authorised surety insurer in the penal sum of $100,000, in favour of the State — or, if it prefers to tie up capital, an irrevocable $100,000 letter of credit or a $100,000 cash deposit with the Office of the Attorney General.
The bond stays in force until the surety is released by the Attorney General or cancels on at least 30 days’ written notice, and a transferee that does not promptly replace a cancelled bond can have its registration denied, suspended, or revoked. It is not insurance for the transferee — if the surety pays, the transferee repays the surety. Registration is renewed with the Office of the Attorney General on the cycle it sets, with a renewal application and fee; we track the term and send renewal notices 60 and 30 days out.
These are the actual issuing fields — entity details, your contact person, an effective date, and a term. The credit consent in the form authorizes a soft inquiry only.
