Lawsuit Protection
There are several trust types that protect assets from lawsuits. Property encumbered in a trust for estate planning purposes is protected from personal lawsuits against a trust beneficiary.
Judgment Protection
The strongest laws to protect your assets come in the form of self-settled trust acts. Special asset protection trusts are specifically created to protect one’s assets from future liability where an individual can both settle and benefit from the trust assets.
These tools are very specialized and available in Domestic and Offshore jurisdictions. We are experts at establishing these protective vehicles and legal instruments to for your personal asset protection.
Asset Protection Trust
One of the best ways to protect yourself from lawsuits is by setting up an asset protection trust. Unfortunately, domestic trusts do not have good track records. Offshore trusts, on the other hand, have some of the best asset protection case law history. A Cook Islands trust as well as a Nevis trust have two of the best track records.
IRA Protection
IRAs are often exempt or partially exempt from lawsuits. However, their protection is limited. Plus there is little to no IRA protection from divorce unless you use the proper legal tools. In IRA Lawsuit Protection By State, you will read how to protect your IRA from divorce or lawsuits.
