Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
Q: What is Asset Protection Planning and why is it important?
A: Asset Protection Planning is the process of organizing your personal and business assets in a way that minimizes risk from creditors or legal disputes. It’s important because it ensures your wealth is preserved against unexpected claims, protecting your estate for you and your loved ones.
Q: When should I start thinking about Asset Protection Planning?
A: The best time to start is now, before any potential threats arise. Proactive planning can provide security and peace of mind, knowing that your assets are protected from future legal challenges. Once you have a known legal issue, you may still have some options but are much more limited by a law known as the “Fraudulent Transfer Act.” This is why it is important to create an asset protection plan before there are any issues.
Q: How does Asset Protection Planning fit into my overall estate plan?
A: It’s a crucial part of your estate plan that works in concert with other components of your plan such as wills, trusts, and Powers of Attorney. It’s designed to ensure that the wealth you want to pass on remains intact and is distributed according to your wishes.
