Is there any documented evidence of the WTS child abuse settlements?

Not sure what exactly you are looking for but...
Click on the ad which frequently appears in the upper right corner of this website for "Secrets of Pedophilia in an American religion" to order a CD with images of literally thousands of pages taken from child abuse court cases involving JWs.

Go to www.watchtowerdocuments.com and there you will find the information about a CD, "Secrets of Pedophilia in an American Religion, Jehovah's Witnesses in Crisis." The CD cover is featured on the top left-hand side of the home page. The digital CD contains about 5,000 pages of court documents from nine lawsuits secretly settled by Watchtower with sixteen victims in February 2007. All the documents are pdf formatted and bookmarked and can be purchased for the nominal price of $14.95. Also, the CD contains a 100-page commentary discussing the most important documents found among the thousands of pages. However, since the beginning of this year, the entire commentary has been posted on the website free of charge.
In addition, evidence of the settlements was presented by NBC Nightly News on Nov. 21, 2007, and the same date, on the Internet, MSNBC featured a lengthy article on the subject. These can be accessed at www.watchtowerdocuments.com. Scroll down the left-hand column to "Media Coverage" where the links have been placed.
I hope this answers your question.

Weren't the dollar amounts of the settlements sealed from the public?

Yes, the dollar amount was sealed by court order but when I ordered thousands of pages of court documents, one set of court papers from San Diego, CA contained the amount paid to one victim. Of course, this was a mistake and when the court realized their error, I was contacted and asked not to publish the document. There was no prohibition put upon me to not publish the figure, which was $781,250.00. If that figure is multiplied by 16 (for 16 victims), the amount is an even twelve and a half million dollars. After paying attorney's fees and expenses, the victim received $530,000. Since each molestation case seemed to be as egregious as the others, it has been assumed that probably each victim received the same amount. Certainly there is no proof of this, but the amount is in line with the average amount the Catholic Church paid child abuse victims within the past few years.

Honesty
Half a million dollars for having your mind and body raped by the pedophile JW's and their demon cult is not justice.
