Synopsis

For the first time, two of the nation’s foremost asset protection planners pool their collective knowledge to bring you Asset Protection ...in financially unsafe times.

The result of over 3 years of extensive research, Asset Protection ...in financially unsafe times is the most comprehensive, up-to-date book on asset protection available. With over 440 references, it thoroughly examines asset protection fundamentals as well as the most cutting-edge strategies. The authors dispel much of the hype and misinformation surrounding asset protection, with in-depth analysis of relevant case law, statute law, and other authoritative source material in easy-to-understand language.

Many of these strategies are not found in any other book, and are only used by a few of the nation s best planners, including:

• Non-qualified personal residence trusts (NQPRTs)
• Equity stripping via both debt-based and obligation-based liens
• UFTA Section 8(a) defense strategies
• Disregarded Entity Multi-Member LLCs (DEMMLLCs)
• Synthetic Roth IRAs (SynRoths)
• Billing and Collections Companies (BICOCOs) for protecting accounts receivable (A/R) (a superior alternative to A/R financing arrangements)
• Offshore self-directed IRAs
• Ultimate LLCs (ULLCs)
• Series LLCs
• Defective Beneficiary-Taxed Trusts (DBETTs)

Do you see these strategies being discussed in other books? That’s because other books are not at the cutting edge of asset protection planning.

This book is at the cutting edge of Asset Protection!

In addition to the foregoing, this book explores more conventional asset protection tools and theory, such as:

• Fraudulent transfer law
• Corporations
• LLCs
• Exemption planning, including bankruptcy exemptions
• Co-ownership strategies and pitfalls (tenants by the entirety, community property ownership, tenants in common, etc.)
• Limited Partnerships for asset protection and estate planning
• Trusts for asset protection and estate planning
• Offshore LLCs, trusts, and other offshore planning tools
• Foreign Insurance and global investing

Finally, this book discusses asset protection as a holistic, wealth preservation discipline, as well as the application of asset protection to specific circumstances, which include:

• A thorough overview of estate and gift taxes
• A description of both simple and advanced estate planning strategies, and how those strategies are integrated into a comprehensive asset protection and estate plan
• Pre-bankruptcy planning
• Pre-divorce/pre-marital planning
• Reinforcing one s wealth against market meltdowns
• Asset protection and the IRS
