Assura Trust

Assura Trust is a specialized trust organization, headquartered in Austin, Texas, created exclusively to serve individuals, families, and organizations involved in the resolution of injury claims.

Assura Trust Company is a Trust Service Office of Midwest Trust Company, an independent, state chartered trust company headquartered in Overland Park, Kansas, with more than $13 billion in assets under management and a seasoned team of trust officers.

We help clients move from litigation into a more stable future by aligning settlement funds with long term needs through integrated solutions that may include settlement trusts, structured settlements, investment management accounts, and our Growth Structured Settlement program.

These offerings support modern settlement and fee planning, giving clients the flexibility to use their own financial advisor to manage market based investments within the trust structure where appropriate.

As part of Prospera Market Strategies and backed by Centurion Investment Holdings, Assura Trust operates within a broader institutional platform that administers approximately $1.6 billion for more than 800 attorneys and law firms nationwide, introducing institutional scale, robust governance, and disciplined investment management, using top asset managers, to the highly personal work we perform on behalf of injured individuals and their families.
