We are not tax attorneys and therefore cannot advise on tax issues. In the past, we have
consulted with a New York tax lawyer who advised us that he is of the view that the settlement
amount should be treated as damages received on account of “personal physical injury” and
therefore not to be subject to federal income tax. However, the law on this issue is unclear, which
means we cannot say with certainty whether the Internal Revenue Service will agree that the
settlement amount is not taxable. We encourage you to discuss any tax issues with your tax
accountant or tax attorney. You are also welcome to contact the Law Office of Asher Harris
concerning the taxability of your settlement. If you want to engage with Mr. Harris directly, please
contact him at [Redacted]. You will be solely responsible for the costs of any
consultation with him.
