Hi this is the business guy with asset protection, planners and lawyers, limited, would you like to set up an llc and make sure your name isn't all over it for people who want to sniff around to sue you? If you already have one or more llc's, maybe it's too late.
Once your name is on the company it's game over even if you change the manager, your name still appears in the history of the company and people can tie you to it say, you have eight different llc's all with your own name.
Each one owns a different rental property.
Somebody sees you have eight llc's.
And the next thing they do is say hot dog.
We've got somebody with deep pockets let's, go after him or her we're talking about how to keep your llc's anonymous.
So nobody knows you own them.
But you I've been in the asset protection from lawsuits field since 1991 and bring you my personal experience.
Our company started in 1906.
We have attorneys on staff and have employees nationwide.
And if you're watching this on youtube, please click the like button below and enter your comments.
And you can also click the subscribe button.
So that when more videos come out like this you'll be up to date, right away, here's an example of where owning your llc's, privately could save you a ton of money and a bunch of headaches.
I have a friend of mine.
He lived in new jersey at the time.
He had a building violation on one building the next thing.
You know, the inspector is looking in the public records to see what other companies.
He owns, then all of a sudden that inspector is slapping all kinds of violations and fines on all the rest of his properties.
What we really want is a chinese firewall between you and your companies that is we want to be sure that when we set up an llc, it doesn't have your name all over it say, you already set up an llc, and you look in the public records, and the whole world can see you're a manager in some states.
They can see you're a member attorneys looking for people with deep pockets know, it's you who's conducting, the business say you have several llc's that get somebody's attention.
They call an attorney that attorney needs to put food on his or her family's table.
He, or she stays up until one in the morning, writing legal papers with your name all over it.
Now, why would they do that? What do all these companies mean to a third party? It means that you as the owner has deep pockets.
So when you lay a foundation that secures your wealth, one of the first important elements is to ensure that the casual observer, doesn't know that you have all of these assets, it's on a need to know basis, not a put on a show basis.
So that is the mistake.
So many business people make when they set up limited liability companies.
And that is because they're professionals, who may know their own businesses, but simply don't know what they're doing from a legal and asset protection perspective.
They simply don't know where they're vulnerable and where the risks are that lead them wide open to financial plunder.
So what do we do? How do we create an llc where their information is private and it's remarkable? How simple it really is to set up a legal tool, where your name will never show up that way some hungry contingent fee attorney will never track your scent.
So what do we do for clients? We either set up a wyoming, llc or much much better a nevis llc, that's nevis, which is an island in the caribbean.
We've set up more llc's there than anybody in the world, much better privacy and protection from lawsuits than any u.s llc.
We can also do this in nevada and delaware as well, but nevis has much better benefits at a very reasonable cost.
For example, before somebody sues you in nevis to try to get assets from inside the llc and nevis.
They'd have to post a bond, but bond could be a hundred thousand dollars.
Two hundred thousand dollars.
Whatever the court decides no u.s company has this tremendous barrier to suing you for your assets, though nevis, llc assets are protected right away after two years, the courts will refuse to even hear a challenge, your creditor puts forth to try to get the assets you moved inside the company, even if your creditor wins, they can't force you to turn over your llc assets.
And that charging order they got against you vanishes after three years, and it can't be renewed in the us that's up to 20 years and since we're talking about llc privacy, we also have nominee managers who have no true control, but people contract our services to put our nominee managers in the public record.
So nobody knows you on the companies, nevis, wyoming, nevada and delaware impose, no income taxes on llcs that do business outside their borders.
So it's, just the federal tax, a one-person llc offers charging order protection.
So that when somebody sues you there are provisions in the law where nobody can take the company away from you or the assets inside now, they're not as strong as the international asset protection trusts that we establish.
In that case, we put the llc inside of the offshore trust.
But the offshore llc in nevis is one of the strongest forms of asset protection short of an offshore, trust, nevis, wyoming, nevada and delaware all allow us to set up your company with a nominee manager, which keeps your name private.
Now, with u.s companies, a new law says, you have to report your ownership to fincin, and they will know that you're tied to your company.
So your nevis company owns all of your other companies, and nobody will know that you have multiple llc's and that's, how we keep your privacy and hold the legal hyenas at bay.
So how does it work here's? How first call us and have us set up a nevis llc ask us to add the nominee manager.
So our guy over here, serves as your nominee llc manager.
We have an agreement where you're in the driver's seat.
And the nominee has no control of the company once we set up your nevis llc that nevis llc can act as manager of all of your other llc's in any other state.
So you have your california, llc, new york, llc, florida, texas, illinois, georgia, llc or wherever.
And they all point back to your private nevis llc.
Now we set up all of the rest of your llc's in the u.s with member managed llc's in many states.
You must list the members that member is your nevis llc in almost all states.
You also need to list a manager.
The manager of all of your llc's is also your nevis llc.
So some potential litigant or creditor snoops around.
They search for your name in the state's database, and they find nothing with your name on it associated with any llc in any state.
Nobody knows you're part of the companies.
So let's say they are looking at the company right here.
This llc has a property in it and just like a client who called us recently.
Their tenant said, there was mold on the property.
She said, she and her son were not feeling very well.
They got a hold of an attorney who wants to know, who's behind it.
Well, too bad for them it's, not going to be you because you called us and had to set up a private nevis llc without your name all over it.
So even if they try to find your name in nevis, the nevis government says, sorry, we don't reveal owners here for civil legal cases, too bad.
So you're, the one who has 100 control, but your opponent won't find that in the public records.
So what we've done for you is, we've created the perfect structure where your nevis llc that is one nevis llc can provide nearly unlimited privacy for every other llc that you own there's, no income taxes on nevis llc's that operate outside of nevis and nevis llc is tax neutral.
So it does not increase or decrease your us taxes.
It all flows right back to you.
So you keep all of your tax deductions and everything remains in place.
And it starts by getting us on the phone.
You can ask all your questions or filling out a free consultation form at assetprotectionplanners.com.
And having us set up a nevis llc.
Then you can have a structure as many us llc's as you want under that nevis llc umbrella so that's, how you own all of your llc's, privately, please click like subscribe and share this video with others.
Thanks for watching.
This is the business guy foreign.
