Protecting Your Assets From Creditors in Missouri, Illinois, Kansas, Oklahoma, and Nebraska
You may be thinking that the last thing you should be worried about is getting trust when you are thinking about getting a divorce. But a divorce can have serious financial implications. Your finances will be highly scrutinized as well as liabilities. Your assets, accounts, and even businesses could become vulnerable to creditors and other debt collectors. Not to mention your soon-to-be former spouse could be trying to claim these assets.
By taking proactive measures now, you can at least help ease your mind about creditors attacking you when you are just trying to move on with your life during divorce proceedings. Basically, you do not want to be adding to your bucket of worries when the stakes are so high.
Our seasoned divorce attorneys can review your financial situation and then help determine what legal tools can be utilized to help protect you. This may include a DAPT. What is beneficial about this type of trust is that it can be handled domestically, rather than going to offshore accounts.
