Abacus Life Settlements Reviews 

Recently I spoke with a representative of Abacus Life Settlements. I found the rep to be very honest, knowledgeable and helpful. She took the time to explain my many options, and really helped me out! All in all, an excellent experience.

Extremely satisfied with the help I received from Courtney.

My absolute frustration has driven me to write this review for those of you who are considering selling your life insurance policy, especially those with a terminal illness, when time is so precious. BEWARE! This is my unfortunate experience with Abacus Life Settlements.

At first, communications went well with our representative Jackson, but when he suddenly left the company, my husband and I were led on an endless, multi-month journey with plenty of empty promises. At first we weren’t even informed that our representative had left the company! We had to find out on our own and it was only after weeks of several phone calls did we learn they he was no longer there. When we asked for a new representative (as we were literally in the middle of negotiating and trying to conclude an offer), we were told someone would contact us back, but they didn’t, even though we called many times. It was very disconcerting to be completely neglected and have no follow up. Matthew (one of the managing partners) had been involved in our discussions but he was very difficult to get a hold of and didn’t return our calls either. A dedicated representative was never reassigned. After weeks, which turned into months, Matthew finally reached back and promised to talk the next day and work out similar numbers to what we were offered before, but once again, he did not, despite our attempts to contact him. Weeks went by with great frustration and my husband expressed his dissatisfaction in a review. Following this, I spoke with Matthew by phone and he talked me into believing him when he said that he would make it right. Well he didn’t. His idea of working it out was making a verbal offer significantly lower than before, which then turned into an even lower number in writing. The idea of working in good faith is exactly that, so if you’re looking for good faith, don’t expect it from Abacus. Instead of taking responsibility and setting things right, they are only interested in pushing a narrative that tries to shift the blame for their own inadequacies. I also have concerns that they have discussed our particulars with other companies. Are they trying to punish for a bad review?

My advice to Abacus Life Settlements when dealing with the terminally ill patient and family is this: A viatical settlement offer should be handled with the greatest of care, and the greatest attention, not with neglect and false narratives. Have some respect for us, those whose misfortunes you make a living from! If you offer to make things right after messing us around for many months, causing us emotional and financial loss, you should do exactly that, not pretend that you will, and then drag us through the mud, once again. It’s absolutely disgraceful! Shame on you!!

Abacus and Matthew Ganovsky just left the same response as the first response. ???
WHAT IS WRONG WITH THIS COMPANY, ABACUS Life?
They left a form letter response, twice. So typical, for Matthew Ganovsky to respond in such a cold calculated fashion creating a delusional narrative to protect themselves from the truth. Stay away, from Abacus and Matthew Ganovsky especially if you are dealing with cancer and you want a fair deal, not a greed driven response with stress attached to it. If you are a cancer person, and you don't want to be stressed out heed this warning, stay away from Abacus and Matthew Ganovsky.
This is for Abacus, if you want to respond to my one star review regarding your company why don't you come up with something that that's a little more honest instead of creating a narrative that only suits you. TELL THE TRUTH. I also have dates, copies of texts, copies of emails and voicemails that never got responded to. Matthew Ganovsky should take responsibility for his unequaled horrible response towards a cancer patient. If you're not going to tell the truth please don't respond. Every time you respond with your own fake narrative it's just frustrating to deal with you, an individual that places a fake narrative above truth. This shows a very disqualifying character in regards to Abacus Life and Matthew Ganovsky.

Shawn Patrunak made my experience with Abacus life settlements stellar.. very thorough and personable wish there were more people in this world that conducts business the way he does.

Its a good way to read and learn. Myles is fantastic.
Overall my experience is fantastic.

Worked with Jackson Tylman at Abacus. Sold parents $500,000 policy with 3 brothers as beneficiaries. Abacus initial offer was more compelling vs. other life settlement companies.

Appreciated the quick closing for upfront cash and simple RDB with my 3 brothers still on policy to be paid upon death of parents.

Overall -- very good experience with Abacus

I highly recommend this company they no nonsense no bs and keep there word. I happen to get Jackson Tylman he’s a great guy who was all class and professional. They closed the transaction in fast time. I would use them again no doubt especially Jackson piloting the transaction.

Myles was excellent and very efficient at getting the deal done. I appreciate his work and definitely will recommend him to anybody looking for insurance settlement options. Made the process as simple as possible. Thank you Myles!

Myles was outstanding on follow up on documents and working me through it !! He listened and was a always there with follow up phone calls.

Myles was as professional, responsible and as clear a communicator as anyone I have seen. He was a pleasure to work with and his competence got us to the outcome with a minimum amount of wasted time. Your process is detailed and thorough. It can be laborious and frustrating. Myles helped avoid any of those negative reactions because of his professionalism.

Shawn Petrunak was a pleasure to work with. He kept me well informed by calling me to let me know what was happening on a very regular basis. He also figured out ways to get things accomplished whenever we hit a snag in the process.

Myles G. has been very professional, intelligent, diligent, and most informative. He has been an extreme pleasure to work with and I look forward to working with him in the future. He is an excellent role model for all Abacus employees to emulate. Hopefully, he is well-compensated by his firm, as he is most deserving.

Garett Lipnicky was a pleasure to work with on my life settlement. He’s informative and knowledgeable and was so patient with all my calls and questions. He always made me feel comfortable and I Ioved the way he always addressed me by my first name! I had spoken with 4 other companies and Abacus was definitely the company to give me quicker results. I absolutely would refer anyone to Garett and Abacus! I feel like I made a new friend! Robin R.

I have worked with many life settlement companies, Myles is very hard working . Nothing slipped through the cracks or was delayed unnecessarily. Abacus was a great company to work with and I will use them again.

I have worked with many life settlement companies and Myles has been by far the most supportive and hard working. Nothing slipped through the cracks or was delayed unnecessarily. Abacus was a great company to work with and I will use them again.

Myles was tremendous. We had done some exploration about the process when we found Abacus and Myles. We treated well and fairly, I handled the paperwork and admin from our side and could reach Myles at any time for questions and clarification. He delivered exactly what he said he would, when he said he would. I'm planning on dropping in to say hi when I next visit Orlando. Pam R

my experience with abacus life settlements was great. After being turned down by other companies, Garett Lipnicky picked up my case with a can do attitude. He was determined to complete the case and yesterday I received my settlement.
Thanks to Abacus Life Settlements for Garetts knowledge and hard work!

Hunter Holland provided outstanding service and was really reassuring by keeping me updated on the status of my settlement. He even called me back after hours when I had a question. I was very demanding expecting perfection and he came thru swimmingly. He has a pleasant demeanor. Please ensure he gets the recognition he deserves. I will recommend abacus because of him!!! Well done Hunter!

I am a former business executive with a doctorate degree --so I was very skeptical about this entire concept. I am so pleased to say that this is an unique service that Abacus offers. I must give my highest regards and customer satisfaction rating to the excellent orientation/ service/support/guidance/honesty that JACKSON TYLMAN --Account Manager provided. He is supported the very impactful and make it happen -- CELESTE. This is a process with lots of steps that require our attention. Frankly, if Jackson was not as good as he is -- we would have been lost. We got a very fair settlement -- my expectations needed to be lowered to be realistic-- which I appreciated Jackson's patience and candor. In reality --this settlement will have long term impact to my wife and I during retirement (if we are careful) Bravo Thank you Jackson and others who supported him over the last few months. Brett K.
