Protection from Sources of Potential Liability

Sources of liability that can diminish the assets in an estate may include:

  • Ownership of real property
  • Divorce
  • Negligence
  • Auto liability
  • Liability from children, agents, or employees
  • Contractual liability
  • As well as a liability as an officer, or director of a business, or professional malpractice

Because of the various ways your financial assets may be impacted, trust and entity planning are important aspects of protecting your assets from potential creditors and preserving your wealth for future beneficiaries.

Our firm helps clients evaluate their need for an asset protection plan, develop a legal strategy to secure assets, and minimize tax and transfer penalties. We also assist individuals in preserving their wealth for the next generation with effective generational transfers, as well as charitable gifting facilitation services.

Business Succession Planning for Wealth Preservation

If you have a business your family has run for generations, you might worry about what will happen to it when you pass. As part of managing your assets and estates, you may want to consider business succession planning as part of that plan.

By deciding early what you want to happen to your business, you have control over the future. You will want to:

  • Select and train your successor
  • Create a timeline if you plan to retire
  • Share your business plans with the successor and key parties at play

The best action to take is often being transparent with all parties who have a hand in your business. It helps protect you, while also preparing them for the next phase.
