Brown explains the sound foundation for properly structuring effective strategies for asset protection and estate planning, discusses which clients should strongly consider creating such a plan, addresses the concerns clients raise in setting up such a plan, explains how the plan can work almost seamlessly in the client's day-to-day activities, and covers the types of assets most conducive to this type of planning.  Topics also include: a "walk-through" on how to structure a recommended asset protection and estate planning approach, recent case law opinions that provide a blueprint of what works and does not work in today's planning, and how the client can maintain control and benefits from the "entrusted" assets without any significant detriment to the effectiveness of the planning.
