ARE YOU PROTECTINGWHAT’S IMPORTANT TO YOU?
If you don’t have such a plan, I urge you to start the process now. I’ve worked with countless business owners who never imagined they would end up in that situation. The unimaginable feels so far away — but that’s exactly why it’s called that. I know you think it’s not going to happen to you. That’s what Franklin, Winehouse, and so many others thought before an unexpected tragedy struck or they were hit with a lawsuit. Don’t wait to create a secure legal plan. It will be far easier and less stressful than dealing with the fallout of a lawsuit on the fly or leaving others to face the reality of running your business without you. At REIBLAW, we understand how important this process is, and we work with clients to develop strategies for shielding their valuables from lawsuits and protecting their business for the future. These safeguards utilize a combination of legal tools and financial plans designed to protect you and your hard-earned assets. While preplanning is always best, there are some ways to protect yourself even after a lawsuit has been filed. Give us a call or send an email to get more information. We’re here to help you protect what’s yours.
You’ve probably heard some horror stories of celebrities who died without a will. Aretha Franklin is a more recent example, and Prince, Amy Winehouse, and Bob Marley all left their siblings or parents squabbling in probate court over millions of dollars and the rights to their estates. Meanwhile, their assets got smaller and smaller as court fees piled up. In some cases, relatives who these stars didn’t talk to or have any relationship with ended up as beneficiaries of what was left — typically still a very large sum of money. So, it begs the question: What would be the fallout right now if something happened to you? Do you have a plan in place that would not only secure the financial future of your family but also ensure your business doesn’t end up with the state or estranged relatives?
