Yes, there are sometimes ways to obtain early withdrawals from certain settlement trust funds. Without a description of what sort of settlement you are talking about (and what the restrictions upon your getting it now it may be), I cannot answer your questions. However, if it is a typical minor settlement in a car accident or other personal injury case, a judge might very well might consider such any request for early distributions for a worthy cause such as advancing your education. Answering this question here does not make me your attorney, but you can reach my office in Racine (262-633-3090 or [email protected]) should you wish to retain me.
