June 05, 2005: I have practiced estate planning, with an emphasis on asset protection planning, for many years. This book?s explanation of various asset protection techniques, many of which I have used in my own practice, is both lucid and thorough. Not only will experienced practitioners find the book to be an invaluable source, but beginners too will discover a text that is highly readable and easy to understand. I am confident saying that Asset Protection spans ?the universe? of such techniques, with both analysis of the fundamental ?building blocks? of the area and coverage of more advanced methodologies. Apart from its useful content, I also found the format of Asset Protection to be particularly straightforward, starting with its discussion of the basic concepts of asset protection and its goals, as well as ethical considerations, proceeding to cover many trusts currently being employed in sophisticated estate planning, and ending with a thorough discussion of entities that should play a part in many sophisticated estate plans. In sum, for beginner and practitioner alike, this book is a ?must read?!!

September 20, 2004: There is so much mis information about this area of law floating around. These guys practice in this area and are first rate. This should be recommended reading for anyone in the financial services industry. Very on point and well done. Tim White
