What Is Asset Protection?

Asset protection is a way to keep your assets safe from lawsuits or creditors.

It involves legally arranging your assets so they are hard for others to claim.

This is things like money, property, and investments.

Our Mableton asset protection lawyers will:

set up trusts
use legal entities like LLCs for businesses
set up insurance for extra protection

The idea is to protect your stuff while following the law.

It’s often planned before any legal issues happen.

Asset protection strategies vary based on individual needs and local laws.
