FAQs About Asset Protection
Here’s what families want to know:
Is asset protection only for wealthy families?
Not at all. In Tucson, we work with many middle-income families who want to protect their home, retirement, or small business. Asset protection is about being proactive, not privileged. It’s about securing what you’ve earned so your future—and your family’s—isn’t at risk.
Can this help with future nursing home or medical costs?
Yes, when done early. Asset protection planning can help preserve your assets while preparing for the possibility of long-term care or Medicaid eligibility. In Arizona, certain strategies can legally reduce your exposure to high care costs. We’ll help you understand what’s possible and what timeline is realistic.
Is asset protection legal in Arizona?
Absolutely. We use ethical, well-established legal tools—like LLCs, trusts, and exemptions—to protect your assets in full compliance with Arizona law. It’s not about avoiding responsibility. It’s about making informed, smart choices to preserve your legacy.
Can I protect my family home?
In many cases, yes. Arizona offers a homestead exemption, and we can also explore trust-based solutions or titling strategies. We’ll review your property and financial situation to design the best plan for you.
Do you work with small business owners in Tucson?
Yes! We regularly help business owners create legal separation between their business and personal finances. Whether you’re just starting or looking to update your structure, we can help make sure your business supports your life—not the other way around.
