WHAT ARE POTENTIAL THREATS TO YOUR PERSONAL ASSETS?

Protecting your assets requires proactive planning to guard against potential lawsuits, creditors, or unexpected life events. Doctors face risks of malpractice claims, business owners may encounter disputes with partners, and anyone could be sued after an accident. Our Napa Valley asset protection lawyers develop personalized estate plans, ensuring your wealth remains secure for you and your family.

WHAT LEGAL STRATEGIES CAN PROTECT ASSETS?

The right law firm for your estate planning needs will find various legal ways to protect your hard earned assets. While you’re expected to pay for any legitimate debts, we understand that sometimes creditors, former business partners, or disgruntled customers might look for ways to take as much of your money as they can. Some of the legal methods we often use to protect property for clients include:

• Opening different types of trusts, including irrevocable life insurance trusts, charitable trusts, and domestic asset protection trusts, to reduce taxes, avoid probate, and safeguard property for beneficiaries
• Initiating business succession planning for when you’re ready to transfer ownership of your business in the future
• Writing pre-nuptial and post-nuptial agreements to shield assets in case of divorce
• Creating a Limited Liability Company (LLC) to protect business owners from losing personal assets through litigation
• Buying insurance policies for peace of mind that you can afford unexpected expenses without bankrupting your estate after a car accident, personal injury on your property, or long-term illness
• Opening retirement accounts that reduce your taxes as you save for your future, including 401(k) plans and IRA accounts. 

SHOULD YOU CONTACT AN ATTORNEY TO HELP?

Anyone can benefit from looking into an asset protection plan during the estate planning process. As long as you have even one asset to lose in a lawsuit or divorce, it’s worth it to find ways to protect it. Otherwise, the loved ones named in your wills, trusts, or any other estate planning document could lose their inheritance.

Of course, some people are especially at risk of losing property through legal action, making them great candidates for guidance. For example, if you’re a doctor, dentist, or lawyer, you could face lawsuits from injured or dissatisfied patients or clients.

If you own one or more businesses or properties, you could also be targeted with lawsuits threatening to reduce your wealth. Our lawyers will keep your best interests in mind when advising you on your legal rights when estate planning, so contact us to learn how to safeguard your property our services.
