Simply put, anybody who lives in our society and owns anything of value can potentially fall victim to a frivolous lawsuit. Whether or not you are a business owner, your accumulated wealth could come under attack. Do you have cash in your bank account? Savings? Stocks, bonds, or mutual funds? Real estate? Jewelry? Automobiles? Any and all of these valuable possessions could become the target of an attack by an unethical collection agency or a frivolous lawsuit, especially if your ownership of them is a matter of public record. That being said, business owners are among the most at risk, particularly those in certain industries, such as real estate. For example, if you are a landlord and own rental properties, chances are very good that you will be sued by one of your tenants or by someone else who just happens to slip and fall on one of your properties sometime in the course of your career. Certain high profile professions, such as doctors, carry a similar risk. This is partly due to the broad public perception of these types of individuals as having bottomless pockets, and partly due to the nature of the transactions that take place within these types of businesses. In reality, though, ANY business that involves contact with the public (and I think this includes all businesses) runs some probability of being the defendant of a lawsuit. In all likelihood you are already aware of this phenomenon, and also of the fact that it is a rising trend. "Well," you may be asking, "if asset protection is so important for my safety, shouldn't I use the services of a professional to establish my strategy?" The answer is coming up in the next installment. Keep watching for more valuable info! http://www.createyourownllc-flp.com/
