Asset Protection Planning
Jay has been one of the best-known asset protection planners for the last 20 years -- and one of the fiercest critics of improper asset protection planning. In 2004, Jay and Chris Riser published Asset Protection: Concepts & Strategies for Protecting Your Wealth, which has since been the all-time best selling book on the subject, and which has since been translated into Chinese for sale in Asia.
