Matthew C. Mullhofer is an Estate Planning Lawyer in Orange County, California who Specializes in Asset Protection

    MARINA DEL REY, CA, April 14, 2010 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Protecting assets is important to those who have worked so hard to attain the things they own. The time to protect assets however is not once trouble has come knocking but rather while there is no trouble on the horizon. Once you become embroiled in legal and personal battles it will be too late. Furthermore, once assets have been seized there is nothing anyone can do to prevent the taking of your property.

At the Law Offices of Matthew C. Mullhofer, we help families prepare their estate plans to protect their children's inheritance from court and probate fees and will contests. We accomplish this by the preparation of living trusts, wills, and durable powers of attorney. We then focus on making sure the family assets (i.e: home, investment property, stocks and bank accounts) are re-titled under the family trust.

When it comes to court battles and judgments against them, many people often make the mistake of believing that it won't happen to them. To an unprepared individual or business such a judgment can be ruinous to both the personal and professional lives of those whom have received such a judgment. When lawsuits come your way, especially those of a frivolous nature, a judgment can come swiftly and unexpectedly and federal and state laws prevent assets from being transferred after a judgment has been passed.
