Written by the company
For over 30 years, JG Wentworth has served thousands of customers who want to achieve financial freedom. Recognized as USA Today’s Most Trusted Brand (2026) and a USA Today Top Workplace (2024–2026), we’re proud to deliver solutions people can rely on. Whether you owe money or are owed money, we can help you meet your financial goals.
If you’re owed money
You may know about our structured settlement program from our famous, operatic jingle—but did you know that in addition to buying structured settlement payment streams in exchange for lump sums, we also purchase annuity payments, lottery prizes, and casino winnings?
At JG Wentworth, we believe that you should be able to access the money owed to you now, not later, and we have a solution for anyone who wants to receive their payments upfront. If you have a payment stream, we’ll purchase some or all of your future payments for the best price, guaranteed. In return, you’ll receive a lump sum payment when you need it—instead of getting it on someone else’s schedule. We make the process as simple and stress-free as possible for our customers, offering excellent customer service and answering all your questions as we go.
If you owe money
If you’re feeling overwhelmed by your debt, we can help. JG Wentworth’s debt relief program allows customers to lower their debt while repaying it fast, with many of our customers graduating from the program in just 2-4 years.
Here’s how it works: when you call us, you’ll speak with one of our certified debt specialists so we can get an idea of what you owe, what type of debt you have, and what your options are. Together, we create a personalized program to repay your debt and help you set aside money each month into a dedicated savings account. Meanwhile, we negotiate with your creditors on your behalf to lessen the total amount of debt you owe, staying connected with you each time we successfully negotiate a lower amount. We treat our debt relief program like a partnership, offering support to all current and graduated clients.
A name you can trust
At JG Wentworth, we value transparency and remain committed to giving each of our customers a great experience. As a USA Today Most Trusted Brand (2026) and Top Workplace (2024–2026), we continue to put our customers first. Money matters can feel overwhelming, but we’re here to help you understand your options and achieve your financial goals.

If I could give 0 stars, that is what I would give. The possibility for debt relief was great at first. But my credit score quickly tanked due to not paying the creditors. One didn’t settle with them and it went to court. Then they doubled my payment and refused to work with me on finding a better solution for my payments. I couldn’t get anyone to call me back. Or send me an email. Nothing. Just the auto reply that they would get back to me soon. My situation is worse than it was before I got with JG Wentworth. They basically told me I was stuck and there’s nothing I can do. Don’t go with these people. Look at any other solution. They’re the worst. They don’t want to help you. They just want your money. At any cost to you. It’s not worth it. Customer service is horrible.
I was not told creditors will be reporting late payments until the debt is paid off
Waivers or something should be given in emergency situations. As a white man, some services and privileges, are not offered. It is discrimination, and oppression. Do it our way, or live on the streets. I hope kindness makes a come back.
Overall, the experience was very straightforward and easy to follow. The representative that I dealt with, Erica, seemed very knowledgeable and was pleasant to speak with. She answered all of my questions and concerns and was patient with me as I read through every document before signing. The reason for the 4-star rating, instead of a 5-star, is the negative impact that this will most likely have on my credit score. I was instructed to stop making the payments to my creditors while JGW are negotiating. While I understand the reasoning behind this, I'm not comfortable with that. I have worked hard to ensure that my payment history has been 100% on time. Now there will be missing payments for multiple accounts for possibly 3 months. It's a shame that I won't be able to retain that 100% on-time payment history.
Great customer service ! Freddie was extremely knowledgeable and made me feel comfortable through out the entire process. 10/10 recommend.
Neal was calm, simple, and to the point. He made it very easy to understand the information and was able to answer all my questions. Super happy with my progress we made to day!
Very knowledgeable and helpful with the entire process.
