Do not wait. Due to the busy professional and personal lives of most clients, it is not easy to find several hours to sit down with a qualified attorney to put together an asset protection plan. If, after reading this section of the book, you believe you need help with an asset protection plan, have your assistant, agent, or trusted family member chalk off an hour on your calendar so you can focus, and call someone who can help you get the ball rolling with your asset protection plan.

Keep an open mind. The best asset protection plan for any client completely removes all the assets from the name of the client. The worst asset protection plan has all assets held individually by the client. A good asset protection plan is somewhere in between, and you need to work with your asset protection attorney to find a happy medium between the two.

Do not wait. Really. This is short list but “do not wait” is so vitally important that I put it in here twice. If, when reading this book, you know you need help, don’t wait. Implementing a plan after you know of a potential lawsuit will do you little good to protect against that impending claim. Hindsight is 20-20; and you do not want to look in the mirror after procrastinating for months only to say to yourself, “I told you so.” There is little consolation for knowing you should have done something, and because you didn’t, it put millions of dollars-worth of your family assets at risk.
