About JG Wentworth

Written by the company

JG Wentworth Logo

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.


You know our name—now get to know us! Learn more about our services at jgwentworth.com or give us a call at (866) 930-6480.

The program has it's pros and cons

The program has it's pros and cons. If you have no other choice it's worth doing. Keep in mind that you are very much paying for their services. Also read the terms very clearly. While most of the time the banks will negotiate with them it isnt a guarantee. Also your credit score will take a hit. That's just the way it is but if you stay with the program it will climb.

I'm happy the program was there and at the time I am happy I could do it.

There are other options but none of them are guaranteed.

Friendly CSRs

The csr was very friendly and spoke very clearly so she was easy to understand. She explained things and answered my questions. She made the whole process smooth, fast, and stress free. I’m hoping the actual process goes as smoothly as the phone call went.
