Nobody Expects To Be Sued

Just ask the 20 million people involved in lawsuits last year.

Divorce, inheritance, health issues, creditors, employee disputes, theft, changing markets, malpractice suits, sexual harassment claims, natural disasters, and disgruntled business partners—these are just a few issues that can result in devastating lawsuits for unprepared business owners.

The highest level of risk falls on those who think they are immune.

Americans are now more concerned than ever about protecting their assets from creditor claims, taxes, divorce, and other disasters. And rightly so.

The more success you have, especially in business, professional practice, or real estate activities, the more at risk you are as others see your success grow. At Law Mom, we help both individuals and families protect their wealth so that their future and their loved ones are secure, no matter what life brings.

What an Asset Protection Trust Attorney Does to Help

We separate and structure your assets to reduce risk

We help you legally divide personal, business, and investment assets so one issue can’t take everything down.
This may include forming LLCs, family limited partnerships, or other legal entities that keep your assets insulated.

We build trust-based protection for long-term security

We design trusts—such as irrevocable trusts, asset protection trusts, and special-purpose trusts—that shield your wealth from creditors, lawsuits, and future disputes.
These structures place your assets in a protective legal container so they cannot be easily reached.

We protect your home and personal property

Through homestead protections, titling strategies, and exemptions available under Massachusetts law, we help safeguard the place where your family lives and the belongings that bring you security.

We design strategies to protect business owners and professionals

If you own a business or rental properties, we create liability barriers to prevent your work-related risks from touching your personal assets.
This often includes entity restructuring, updating operating agreements, and establishing insurance and trust layers.

We prevent future family conflict

Asset protection planning also reduces the chances of inheritance disputes, creditor issues, or financial mismanagement down the road.
We create clear, legally sound instructions so your loved ones stay protected—and stay united.

We give you a plan that grows with your life

Life changes—marriage, divorce, a new home, business growth, or a new baby.
We review your plan regularly and adjust your protections so you’re always covered.

How Asset Protection Planning vs traditional Estate Plannig

1. Estate Planning Lawyer Protects Your Family After You’re Gone.

Asset Protection Protects You and Your Assets While You’re Still Alive.**

A revocable living trust, will, and other estate planning documents are designed to:

  • Avoid probate
  • Make things easier on your family
  • Control who receives your assets after you pass
  • Plan for incapacity
  • Keep your affairs private

But they do NOT protect your assets from lawsuits, divorce, creditors, or financial threats during your lifetime.

2. Asset Protection Attorney Creates Legal Shields Against Threats While You’re Living

Asset protection planning uses strategies like LLCs and business entities, Irrevocable trusts or asset protection trusts, Homestead protections, and Equity stripping to: 

  • Keep creditors from ever reaching your property
  • Protect rental properties or business risks from touching your personal wealth
  • Guard against lawsuits
  • Separate and secure certain assets in a divorce so they’re not automatically pulled into marital property
  • Protect your home, savings, and business—from being wiped out by unexpected events such as lawsuits, accidents, or medical crises.

FAQs

Common Questions

Can I still do asset protection planning after a lawsuit or claim has arisen?

It’s much harder and often legally restricted. Asset protection works best proactively, before any claim, lawsuit, or financial threat exists. Waiting until after an event can limit your options and may even be a violation of the law.

Will asset protection keep my family from receiving their inheritance?

No. Properly designed asset protection planning ensures that your family still benefits from your wealth. The goal is to protect your assets while you’re alive so your loved ones inherit what you intended, without unnecessary risk or loss.

How does asset protection work with my estate plan?

Asset protection complements your estate plan. While your estate plan ensures your assets are distributed according to your wishes after your death, asset protection ensures those assets are safe and accessible while you’re living.
