Asset Protection

Asset protection planning means arranging your affairs before a problem arises, so that a single lawsuit or business setback does not put everything at risk. We use well-established tools: separating operating businesses from real estate and other valuable assets, forming and maintaining LLCs properly, coordinating insurance, using retirement accounts, and creating trusts for family members. Effective planning has to be done in advance and in good faith. It cannot be used to avoid existing creditors, and our plans are designed to hold up if they are ever challenged.
