Protecting Your Legacy
The trust and estate attorneys of Avelino Nitkewicz LLP believe that estate planning needs to do more than plan for the efficient distribution of your assets to your beneficiaries. It also needs to protect those assets while you are alive. We represent professionals such as doctors, dentists and lawyers, as well as executives and business owners in Summit, New Providence, Madison and other communities in north-central New Jersey, New York City and all of its surrounding suburbs.
Predators and Creditors
Without good planning, family and corporate assets are vulnerable to creditors, lawsuits and divorce. Our lawyers will carefully work with you to develop a customized individual asset protection plan based upon your personal and professional exposure. We not only protect your professional and personal assets today; we help you recognize how to keep protecting yourself as you grow more successful.
Asset protection is a process that is used to insulate your assets from future creditors and lawsuits. Asset protection encompasses several different goals:
- Protect existing assets from creditors
- Ensure the orderly distribution of your estate upon death
- Minimize estate taxes
- Protect an inheritance so it cannot be lost in a lawsuit or a divorce proceeding
- Create legacy wealth through the use of instruments such as dynasty trusts, IRA trusts and irrevocable life insurance trusts
