Law Firm Services
Our Young Client Division focuses exclusively on the needs of guardianships and trusts for incapacitated children. In most cases, our Young Client Division provides a better alternative to structured annuity settlements for everyone involved-clients, guardians, and their attorneys.
Preservation of principal
As part of a structured settlement, young clients and their families receive a fixed return of assets every month, eventually exhausting their principal. With Fogel Capital Management investing your clients assets, this doesn’t have to happen. Conserving and growing a young client’s principal is at the heart of our investment objectives. Because we have the flexibility to manage investments for maximum returns, depletion of capital is kept to a minimum.
