Texas Asset Protection Attorneys

Your wealth took a lifetime to build — let’s make sure it’s protected. At Guerra Days Law Group, we design custom legal strategies to help Texans secure their homes, businesses, real estate, and savings from lawsuits, creditors, and unexpected life events. Whether you’re a real estate investor, business owner, or family preparing for generational wealth transfer, we can help you implement proactive solutions that keep your assets safe — and your future in your hands.

What Is Asset Protection?

Asset protection is a legal planning process designed to safeguard your personal and business wealth from liability, creditors, divorce, probate disputes, and other financial risks. It involves using legal tools like trusts, business entities, contracts, and exemptions to create barriers between your assets and potential claimants. The goal is to lawfully organize your property in ways that discourage lawsuits, limit exposure, and, if necessary, hold up in court.

Many people mistakenly believe asset protection is only for the ultra-wealthy. In reality, it’s essential for anyone who owns real estate, operates a business, or is exposed to professional liability. And in Texas, where certain legal tools like the homestead exemption and Series LLCs are especially powerful, there’s no excuse not to protect yourself.

Why You Shouldn’t Wait

Asset protection is most effective when done before a threat arises. Once you’re sued or served with a demand letter, your options become severely limited due to fraudulent transfer laws. That’s why we encourage proactive planning during key life events, such as:

  • Purchasing a second home or investment property
  • Starting or expanding a business
  • Entering a high-liability profession
  • Preparing for marriage or divorce
  • Receiving an inheritance
  • Planning your estate or succession

Our team offers strategic consultations to help you understand where you’re vulnerable and how we can help reduce your legal and financial exposure — legally and ethically.

Who We Help

Our asset protection clients come from all walks of life. We regularly work with:

  • Real estate investors managing rental portfolios or flipping properties
  • Business owners with employees, contractors, or client exposure
  • Doctors, lawyers, and licensed professionals vulnerable to malpractice claims
  • High-net-worth families planning for multi-generational wealth transfers
  • Individuals facing divorce, probate litigation, or aging parents with assets

Texas-Specific Asset Protection Tools

Texas law provides unique advantages when it comes to protecting your assets. At Guerra Days Law Group, we leverage these local laws and combine them with best practices in business and estate planning, including:

  • Texas Homestead Exemption: Protects your primary residence up to unlimited value, subject to acreage limits
  • Texas Series LLC: Allows real estate investors and business owners to isolate risk within sub-entities
  • Irrevocable Trusts: Shield inheritances, real property, or business equity from future creditors
  • Family Limited Partnerships (FLPs): Used for asset control, gifting, and estate planning with tax benefits
  • Custom Operating Agreements: Prevent business disputes and reduce personal exposure
  • Insurance Layering: Integrating commercial or umbrella insurance with legal barriers

We never take a one-size-fits-all approach. Your plan will be built around your exact goals, risks, and future plans — all fully compliant with Texas and federal law.

Asset Protection vs. Estate Planning

Many clients assume their estate plan is enough to protect their assets. But estate planning is about what happens after you die. Asset protection is about shielding your wealth while you’re alive. The best legal plans combine both disciplines to preserve wealth during your lifetime and make sure it passes smoothly to your heirs.

Real-Life Risks We Help Clients Avoid

You don’t need to do anything wrong to be sued or dragged into a legal dispute. We help clients avoid real threats such as:

  • Slip-and-fall or injury claims from tenants or customers
  • Business partner disputes or lawsuits from former employees
  • Divorce battles over commingled or shared assets
  • Creditors coming after inheritance or jointly owned property
  • Probate fights among family members
  • Lawsuits from failed business ventures or personal guarantees

Our Process: Legal Planning That Works

Every asset protection plan begins with a strategic consultation. From there, we:

  1. Analyze your assets, liabilities, and exposure risks
  2. Recommend a legal structure using proven tools and Texas law
  3. Draft and implement the necessary business entities, trusts, or documents
  4. Coordinate with your accountant or financial advisor, if needed
  5. Provide ongoing legal support as your situation evolves
