Safeguard Your Wealth. Secure Your Future.

Protecting your assets is about more than simply accumulating wealth; it’s about preserving your financial security, your family’s future, and your peace of mind. At The Pacella Law Group, we help Southern California families, business owners, and high-net-worth individuals develop comprehensive asset protection strategies that anticipate risks and safeguard what matters most.

From litigation and creditor claims to unexpected financial setbacks, a proactive approach can prevent years of economic stress. Our team can work closely with you to design strategies that are both legal and practical, tailored to your unique goals.

Our Asset Protection Services in Los Angeles & Ventura Counties

At The Pacella Law Group, we approach asset protection with a strategic and holistic perspective. Our team evaluates your financial situation, anticipates potential risks, and develops a plan that strikes a balance between security, flexibility, and legal compliance.

Our asset protection services include:

  • Customized planning strategies – We design individualized plans that align with your goals, family structure, and financial profile.
  • Trusts and legal structures – While California does not allow traditional domestic Asset Protection Trusts, we can implement irrevocable trusts and other estate planning tools to help safeguard assets and coordinate them with your broader estate plan to protect property from creditors, lawsuits, and other risks.
  • Out-of-state asset protection options – For clients seeking enhanced protection, we guide the creation of out-of-state Asset Protection Trusts in states like Nevada, Delaware, or Alaska in compliance with both California and the trust-state laws.
  • Business and investment protection – Shield personal and business assets through strategic entity formation, including LLCs and Family Limited Partnerships, contractual protections, and liability management.
  • Retirement and estate planning coordination – Integrate your asset protection strategies with your estate plan, preserving your wealth for future generations.
  • Structured settlement strategies – For clients receiving structured settlements, we provide legal guidance to maximize protection. 
  • Insurance and risk management guidance – We can recommend liability coverage, umbrella policies, and other risk mitigation strategies to complement legal protections.
  • Ongoing guidance and updates – Laws change, and your financial situation evolves. We work with you over time to keep your plan effective and compliant.

By combining litigation-strength experience with a highly personalized approach, we can protect your wealth from foreseeable risks while maintaining flexibility for your future. Whether coordinating trusts, LLCs, partnerships, or out-of-state strategies, our team provides clear, practical guidance every step of the way.
