Gary presents two seminars, "How Asset Protection Plans Fail" and "You May Transfer Assets Freely (But Not Really)" for the New York State Society of CPAs (NYSSCPA) via Live National Webinar
How Asset Protection Plans Fail
This seminar focuses on the practical aspects of the law of asset protection. Through real world examples, attendees learn why relying exclusively on “Asset Protection” may be a mistake. Attendees further discover why the most effective personal asset preservation tools are implemented as part of a comprehensive personal plan that demonstrates intent beyond creditor protection. Finally, the seminar provides simple, yet key insights into the practical considerations that can influence the effectiveness of protective planning.
You May Transfer Assets Freely (But Not Really)
In this seminar, attendees learn why debtors may move assets freely prior to a judgment being entered. Certain late transfers may be unwound and even get debtors (and their advisors) into trouble. Attendees will learn how best to avoid fraudulent transfers and to implement effective planning.
