When you say you received settlement, who did you receive the settlement amount from? If you received it from an Insurance Police, then the nominee will receive the entire amount. In some cases, the proportion to be divided and the name of the persons to receive the settlement amount will be mentioned. The details of how you received this settlement are necessary for further legal advice.
