Testimonials

Joanna is absolutely in the upper echelon for structured settlements, and it is hard to find someone else who puts as much effort and compassion into the process as she does. She takes the time to listen to our clients, understand their needs, and explain complicated plans in a way that makes sense and provides a sense of comfort to people at a time of great vulnerability. Most recently, she had to redo the work of another person who worked with our client before we were involved. She approached the situation with professionalism and thoughtfulness, and truly changed the way the family would be able to manage their young child’s needs for a long time into the future. I am grateful every time she is involved in one of our cases.

"I have had the opportunity to work with settlement planners on “both sides of the aisle” for over 20 years as a attorney first representing defendants in medical malpractice cases and now plaintiffs. Even though there are other competent people out there, Joanna is by far the best. She takes the time to personally meet with our clients before mediation to explain the process, structured annuities, and how, for example, a client’s medical expenses will be handled going forward. She provides individually tailored proposals and has guided clients with referrals to resources that can help them get the medical services they need with settlement proceeds. While she is certainly incredibly knowledgeable, the thing that sets her apart is the care and effort she puts into meeting each client’s needs. She puts people at ease when she is helping plan for their future. Joanna is an invaluable asset that I am happy to have as part of our team approach to significant cases."

“I chose to work with Joanna Wynes on all of my structured settlements based on her dedication, loyalty, and knowledge that benefits both the client and the attorney. She is an amazing settlement planner and has skills that very few possess. She is patient, responsive, creative and works hard to protect my client’s settlements and set them up for future success. I without a doubt highly recommend her.”

"Joanna is absolutely the best to work with when it comes to settlement consulting. She cares deeply about our clients and will spend as much time as needed with them. Joanna is the only person our office will use and that will never change. There is no one better."

- Josh Schmerling | Zirkin and Schmerling

"I have created and implemented many structured settlements for both minor and adult clients with Joanna over the years. She is creative, practical, and compassionate. The settlement process can be difficult due to its finality, but Joanna’s has always been able to build rapport with clients so they can feel satisfied with the result and comfortable that they are making good decisions for their, and their family's, future."

- Benjamin Salsbury | Salsbury Sullivan

“I have had the opportunity to work with Joanna Wynes on a couple of different occasions, but when a life-long friend of mine needed help with multiple liens on their minor son’s personal injury case, there was no question who I needed to call. Because it was a minor child who was injured, Joanna set up a structured settlement and a trust that allows for the parents to ensure the money in this case will go to future medical care and to benefit the minor for the rest of his life. Thank you for everything.”

- Matt Trollinger | Trollinger Law

“Joanna Wynes is an extremely compassionate and gifted settlement planner and is truly life-changing for my clients, who love working with her. She is also amazingly responsive and patient. I cannot recommend Joanna highly enough for any settlement planning needs. She is truly a pleasure to work with and is incredible at what she does.”

- Cara O’Brien | O’Brien Law

"I recently represented a family where a mother of three young children was killed in a tragic vehicular crash. When I reached out to Joanna, she prepared preliminary structure figures based on estimated recoveries. More importantly, when the matter was mediated, Joanna was at our mediation and was able to provide thoughtful and carefully tailored structures to address both the short term and long term needs of this family. After a settlement was reached, Joanna and Sage worked promptly with the insurers to lock in the rates for several structures, and attended to the details so the family could begin move forward. I highly recommend Joanna and her team for any structured settlement needs you may have."
