Mike McCullough is a settlement consultant with The McCullough Group, an affiliate of Sage Settlement Consulting. Mike works closely with plaintiffs’ attorneys throughout the country to help facilitate legal settlements by offering solutions that benefit all parties involved in the litigation process. His extensive experience enables him to design individualized settlement plans to preserve government benefits while providing for the current and future needs of each claimant.

For over 15 years, Mike’s expertise has been successfully utilized in all types of litigation, from small claims to some of the largest and most complex claims in the industry. He is one of only a handful of structured settlement brokers in the nation to be designated as a Court-Appointed Structured Settlement Broker for the BP Deepwater Horizon Settlement.

Mike has also worked closely with state legislators to pass laws in Louisiana offering increased protection to minors involved in litigation. In 2008, Mike’s advocacy to protect minors spurred Representative Joe Lopinto to amend House Bill 133 of the Louisiana Code of Civil Procedure to provide clearer guidance for judges and more protection for minor claimants. Mike remains a zealous advocate for minors in Louisiana and is currently working with other senators and representatives on future legislation.

Prior to entering the settlement industry, Mike founded GRM Financial, a consulting firm that provided financial management for highly successful individuals and businesses.
