Customer Rating: 

I strongly believe that this is the only book you need to read about the topic. Mark J. Kohler presents a fantastic `introduction' so that he or she can take the next step; finding the right tailore-made structure with a competent lawyer.

No single book on asset protection can possible envision or advise on the readers possible finical situation. However, there are universal traps that can be avoided by all people/institutions interested in asset protection. I enjoyed this book, along with others on asset protection. They will help develop your understanding of the topic. Lastly, consult someone before you take any major steps, preferably some who practices in the field as their profession.

There just isn't enough information in this book to make it. . .well, a book. I learned some valuable things, but ended up skimming the fluff and "finished" reading it in less than an hour. It feels like the author took some information and stretched it to the breaking point. I keep most financial planning books in my library for reference. I'll sell this one.

Mark Kohler has written an excellent introduction to Asset Protection for regular people and small business owners. This book gives a good understanding of when asset protection is necessary, and walks you through the basic methods, starting with the simplest that people can do themselves... and working up to more complex strategies that are needed by a relatively few number of people.

He lays out his multiple barrier approach which puts up sequential lines of defense up against potential creditors, and makes a strong case for using such a system.

He also talks about the values of corporations in protecting personal assets, and I think this is a good intro to my www.corporateveilpro.com step-by-step corporate records system to avoid having your corporate veil pierced.

I recommend Mr. Kohler's book to every small business person I talk with about these corporate formalities...

The author managed to turn a dry subject into an interesting discussion of asset protection. There is a wealth of knowldege in this book that is actually usable and logical. The author uses actual examples of why things work and don't work and offers methods to build up your asset protection defenses. He isn't selling anything (besides the book) so it isn't a sales pitch for his "special" system. As far as Asset protection books, this one is a standout and definitely under priced for the content provided. Very well written.
