Asset Protection Services

Business Structure Evaluation

Choosing the right business structure is fundamental to asset protection. Our business lawyers conduct a thorough analysis of your current business structure, whether it’s a sole proprietorship, partnership, corporation, or limited liability company (LLC). Based on this assessment, we provide tailored recommendations to strengthen your business’s legal foundation, ensuring your personal assets are shielded from potential business liabilities.

Asset Segregation Strategies

We implement effective asset segregation techniques to safeguard your personal wealth from business-related risks. This involves creating a clear distinction between your personal assets and those owned by your business. By establishing separate accounts and legal entities, we minimize the impact of business debts or legal actions on your personal finances, enhancing your overall asset protection strategy.

Trusts and Estate Planning

Forward Law Firm is well-versed in in crafting personalized trust and estate plans to protect your assets for future generations. Our experienced estate planning attorneys work closely with you to create trusts that secure your assets from estate taxes and creditors. Through strategic estate planning, we ensure that your wealth is preserved and transferred to your heirs according to your wishes, minimizing the potential for external claims.

Legal Compliance and Documentation

Maintaining meticulous legal compliance and documentation is vital for asset protection. We assist you in preparing and organizing essential legal documents, contracts, and agreements. By ensuring that all paperwork is accurate, up-to-date, and in compliance with relevant laws and regulations, we help mitigate the risk of legal disputes and protect your assets from potential challenges.

Insurance Review and Optimization

Insurance is a crucial component of asset protection. Our team conducts a comprehensive review of your existing insurance policies, including liability insurance, business interruption insurance, and professional indemnity insurance. We identify coverage gaps and work closely with reputable insurance partners to optimize your insurance portfolio. By ensuring adequate coverage, we provide an additional layer of protection for your business and personal assets.

Litigation Prevention Strategies

Preventing litigation is a proactive approach to asset protection. We develop customized strategies to minimize the risk of potential lawsuits and disputes. This may involve creating clear contractual agreements, implementing internal policies and procedures, and conducting regular legal audits of your business practices. By addressing potential legal vulnerabilities, we reduce the likelihood of litigation, safeguarding your assets from the financial impact of legal challenges.

Who This is For.

New Business Owners

New business owners are at a huge risk of disputes and litigation, whether from a business ownership dispute, or a gap or oversight in one of their contracts. With limited resources, you have to feel confident in your legal representation that they can get you the best coverage in place as quickly as possible.

Existing Business Owners

If you’ve been operating for awhile, you know legal issues can come out of nowhere, and often when you’re the least prepared. Retaining an experienced commercial litigation attorney can make all the difference when it comes to final numbers with fees and settlements, or judgments.
