Asset Protection
Asset protection planning is a process by which one organizes their financial affairs in such a manner as to safeguard assets from the risk of exposure. Pino Law Group is an expert firm in the process of asset protection. Asset protection involves transferring the assets from an unprotected form of ownership to a protected form of ownership. The unprotected form generally applies to property held directly in an individual’s name or even in the name of a Revocable Living Trust. The protected form can be one of many asset protection vehicles such as LLCs, corporations, certain kinds of trusts, limited liability companies, and other such entities. Protecting assets can also be a process of transferring them into exempt assets to the extent permitted by states and federal law.
Pino Law Group is asked regularly by our business and investment clients about asset protection planning and set up. Many times our clients reach out AFTER they are presented with a lawsuit, which is not ideal, as many structures are available to set up prior to a lawsuit. Always keep that in mind as this type of planning is legal and must be done properly. It is not legal if it is done after the fact or in a fraudulent manner.

Estate Plans carry out your personal legacy objectives for the administration and succession of your wealth. Business owners in particular benefit from effective strategies that consider asset ownership, protection and distribution, both during life and upon death.

Estate planning structures
An asset protection and estate plan requires professional structuring. Just forming entities such as Limited Liability Companies, Limited Partnerships, Corporations or Trusts online will not be sufficient to protect your assets. It is important to know how to manage them and how to structure these entities so that they inter-relate in a way that makes sense and works. That is the benefit of The Integrated Structure.

A properly structured asset protection plan will properly segregate assets in such a way as to achieve the maximum in asset protection and in estate planning. It does not make sense to do one without the other. So focus on integrating asset protection planning and estate planning with Pino Law Group. Done properly, it will not only keep your creditors at bay, but also allow you to avoid probate and lower your income and estate taxes.
