What part of a settlement is taxable depends on what the settlement is for.  In your case the portion of the settlement that was for lost wages would definitely be taxable just as the wages would have been if they had been paid properly.  

 

TurboTax has experts that can help you prepare your tax return.  Here is where to get started with that.

 

If you don't want to use an expert for your whole return then you can ask questions here in community or do your taxes yourself with TurboTax and click on the "Ask an Expert" button while preparing your return in order to get live help.

I am already a Turbo tax client, I am asking which Turbo tax expert is specialized in court settlements that count as income so I can schedule an app.  the question is do you have a list of CPA experts just specializing in this?  I am aware of the link you provided this doesn't give a list to choose from by this expertise and only pulls 3 per zip code 

 

can someone send me link to experts in settlements?

could be online doesn't have to be east coast based

TurboTax doesn't provide a list of experts with their specialties.  Primarily because we don't need to.  Any of the experts that you contact through the link I provided above should be able to help you with your settlement.
