This reference shows you the best way to secure yourself, your family, or your clients against fraudulent transfers. It analyzes the common patterns of fraudulent transfers, including intrafamily transactions, estate planning, marital arrangements, and elder law. It also discusses in detail pre-bankruptcy planning, including how to convert nonexempt assets into exempt assets. The author gives special attention to the liability and responsibility of lawyers who may be implicated in fraudulent transfers and explains how to minimize your exposure to liability.
