This is a question you need to ask of the issuing party, not strangers on a BDSM forum. At the very least you need to report the check stolen to both the police and the issuer if you ever want a chance of having it redrawn. ~stef

To answer the first question, generally yes. But what kind of settlement are we talking about? To answer the second question, I'm afraid I don't know what you mean by paying the liens and still keeping part of the settlement. Are you comfortable giving us more details?

Generally, companies will replace a stolen check, so long as it has not been cashed. The sooner you contact them the better your chances. If it gets cashed, you're probably screwed. Liens are claims against property. The nature of the liens (and the property attached) will determine whether or not you a legally required to use this insurance settlement to satisfy the underlying debts. If there is a claim against the insurance settlement itself, more than likely you will be required to satisfy that claim before you spend the settlement money in any other fashion.

Tryinswitch, if for some reason you're having trouble deciding whether to listen to me or listen to him, listen to him. His answer is definitely better and more complete than mine.

To the OP: this is a very good answer, but I have one comment. If a bank cashes a check for someone other than the payee, the bank can be held liable. If it comes to that, you're gonna need a lawyer. In any case, contact the company right away about your stolen check. quote: ORIGINAL: celticlord2112 Generally, companies will replace a stolen check, so long as it has not been cashed.

If your settlement is $10,000 and there are $10,000 in liens, unless you can negotiate a reduced payment-in-full, you will get nothing. And if you somehow keep the money for yourself and don't pay the liens, well, it won't be worth the legal trouble you'll be getting yourself into. Did you have a lawyer for all of this? Or did you negotiate yourself? Either way, how is it that you don't know that you have to satisfy the liens before you get anything for yourself? Cali
