Comprehensive Approach
We assist in each of the Plan, Create, and Protect phases so you stay clear on the next step.
Personal Asset Protection
We assist in securing your family's future, so their dreams are supported by the wealth you've earned. That's why you earned it.
- It's not just you at risk but also your loved ones, and your exposure is larger than you may think.
- Secure the dreams and futures of those you care about most.
- Ensure your legacy supports your family and their goals, not the government’s general fund.
- Shield your wealth from creditors and legal challenges to your name.
- Rather than rely on a Will, it is better before death to transfer your assets to a trust for which you are executive trustee, because a probate judge cannot touch trust assets once any look-back period has passed.
- Important: If you recently purchased or paid off an asset like a car, truck, boat, RV, your home, or a rental home, then now is a most vulnerable time and an ideal time to move your asset out of your name and protect it with a trust.
Robert says: "I have stepped up to be a responsible representative for my family's estate. I decided to make a move to protect our family farm by transferring it into a trust so the medical system won't get it in the end. I prefer to do administrative actions without involving a lawyer and these gentlemen made the process simple for me! Now, as long as my father can remain independent a few more years and surpass the look-back period for Medicaid, we will have an estate that can stay in our family for generations to come!"
Business Asset Protection
We assist in securing the assets of your business and also ensuring control continues seamlessly if something happens to you.
- Both your name and your business name are in play, so your exposure is bigger.
- Not just your family rely on you, but customers, suppliers, and sub-contractors may rely heavily on you also.
- Avoid judicial involvement in your business in cases of judgments or if you die.
- Move your LLC or corporation from your name to being owned by a trust for which you are Executive Trustee.
- Establish a successor co-trustee to maintain seamless control if something happens to you.
- Secure the revenue your business brings to your family by letting a trust for which you are executive trustee actually own the business.
Multi-Owner
Business Asset Protection
We assist with special strategies when multiple owners are involved.
- Multiple owners mean your entire ownership team is exposed.
- More owners mean more chances of litigation and more scenarios where one or more owner could die.
- Protect your business if something happens to you or any of your team, so your remaining team avoids costly legal delays before they can make business decisions or buy or sell assets at a critical time.
- Prevent significant portions of your business from falling under government or unwanted control if one of your partners dies and their estate is legally constrained during the probate process.
- Protect your multi-member LLC or multi-owner corporation.
- Ensure all controlling members or shareholders manage their stakes through trusts for which they are executive trustee.
Multi-Business Asset Protection
We assist when you need to protect a whole array of revenue streams.
- Broader exposure arises when you own, plan to own, or should own multiple businesses.
- Each line of business may be affected not only by actions on the owner's name(s) but also by activities in the other lines of business.
- Example: A breadwinner with separate retail and wholesale lines of business could benefit from setting up distinct ownership structures.
- Example: An entrepreneur running a construction company and a real estate investment firm already likely has created distinct companies.
- For optimum protection, we recommend setting up multiple trusts which in turn own holding-company LLCs, which in turn combine to own various LLCs and/or corporations which each handle one of your lines of business.
- Capital may be raised if desired by offering up to 49% total ownership of any held company to outside investors.
