"Over and over again courts have said that there is nothing sinister in so arranging one's affairs as to keep taxes as low as possible."


           - Federal Judge Learned Hand, Helvering vs. Gregory, 69 F.2nd 809, (1935)

 

 

What is Asset Protection?

 

Asset protection is planning to protect your property from legal problems and taxes during your life and after your death.   Asset protection generally refers to strategies employed (e.g., trusts) to protect your wealth from creditors and predators.  It’s also a set of legal mechanisms and strategies designed to help you exercise control over your business, your personal property, and your legacy from beyond the grave.

Isn’t Asset Protection Just for the Wealthy?   

No!  An accident, an illness, a divorce, a wayward child, a death, a lawsuit, or even a mistake in a government computer can wipe out everything you have.   The real tragedy, however, is that it doesn’t have to be this way!
