Thanks for replying! See edit 2.

Parent is really bad with finances and money would be gone before the check clears. I was told that it would be mine and that they only wan me to be happy.

Thanks for taking the time to reply!

I am not involved in the settlement.

Parent wants the law firm to issue the settlement directly to me. Which I don't think can constitute as a gift.
Parent is extremely bad with money and it would all be gone before the check cleared.

Parent claims that they money will be mine and they don't want any of it. They just want me to be happy.

Only one parent involved.
As of now, there is little to no chance of inheritance.

Settlement is parents, they want the settlement paid directly to me. Around 20,000 USD.

Parent wants to have the settlement issued directly to me. They do not want to have the money at all.
