Asset Protection

A thoughtful and proactive asset protection plan, whether as a standalone or more commonly as an adjunct to your estate or business planning, is critical to safeguarding your life’s work and savings from creditors, baseless lawsuits, and former (or soon to be former) spouses.

Business owners, professionals such as doctors, dentists, lawyers and accountants, and property owners in particular should be aware of the risks associated with conducting their business, practicing in their respective fields, and taking responsibility for others.

Assets can be at risk due to a number of vulnerabilities, including:

Divorce
Personal liability of corporate officers and directors
Lawsuits by former business partners
Lawsuits filed by employees or service providers
Personal injury suffered on your premises
Personal injury resulting from a motor vehicle accident
Liability as guarantor for the debts of another
Liability arising from misconduct
