10 Reasons I Can Give You Better Asset Protection

PDF Print E-mail

I can give you better asset protection by using a SPATrust TM.  These are the top ten reasons my SPA Trust TM gives you better asset protection: 

1.  Better Statutory Foundation.  The SPA Trust TM is supported by state and federal statutes throughout the country (as shown below).

2.  Better Case Law to Support It.
  The SPA Trust TM is proven by an overwhelming number of court cases throughout the country (as shown below).

3.  Better Confidentiality
The SPA Trust TM removes assets from your personal ownership and from any disclosure of your personal assets.  It is a private document and it cannot be discovered through any public records.    

4.   Better Scope of Use.
  If implemented correctly, the SPA Trust TM can protect any type of asset, in any location, from any type of liability including lawsuits, bankruptcy, tax liens, divorce, or government actions.

5.   Better Flexibility.
  The terms, conditions, and beneficiaries of the SPA Trust TM can be changed, and the assets can be returned to you without any cost or tax effect, at any time.

6.   Less Hassle.
  The SPA Trust TM can be set up within a few days and it requires no appraisals, no gift taxes, no extra tax returns, and no ongoing maintenance.

7.   No Tax Problems.
  You can transfer any asset into or out of the SPA Trust TM without any tax consequences.  The SPA Trust TM will have no affect on your income taxes.  I will coordinate with your CPA to be sure they understand and agree with the tax treatment.

8.  Better Price
.  The SPA Trust TM comes at a better price and with lower ongoing fees than comparable plans.

9.  Better Ethical Foundation
The SPA Trust TM must be done in advance of a problem for the purpose of providing security for your family in the event of currently unforeseen liabilities.  We do not facilitate fraud of any kind.         

10. Better Craftsmanship and Support. 
I am an adjunct law school professor who teaches law students how to draft better trusts.  I have designed asset protection trusts for hundreds of clients and I have seen many of them tested in court.  Because the concept of the SPA Trust TM is the best in the industry, I am often hired by distinguished law firms throughout the country to serve as co-counsel in preparing SPA Trusts TM for their clients.  I will customize your documents to your particular situation, and I will be available to provide ongoing support over many years.
