@blakeharrislaw: Will you lose control of your assets if you set up an asset protection trust? 🤔 Depends how it's built. One popular route is the bridge trust — you're your own trustee, and a foreign trustee is supposed to step in once you get sued. But there's a catch: no guarantee they actually will. They do a fresh background check and new due diligence right when the lawsuit hits… and there are cases where the trustee just refused to step in. 😬 The alternative: a fully offshore Cook Islands trust that owns a foreign LLC, and you serve as manager of the LLC. You've got complete control over the assets. And if a lawsuit comes, the foreign trustee can remove you as manager and take over — no extra KYC, no new due diligence, no additional background check. It's built in from day one. Both give you control. Only the fully offshore structure gives you the guarantee. 🌴🛡️ Learn more 👉 45FAPT.com #assetprotection #offshoretrust #cookislandstrust
