North America Common Law
Asset protection structured founders, Nevada, USA
Nevada is one of the strongest US states for asset protection: charging order is the exclusive remedy for LLC interests under NRS 86, single member LLC protections are preserved (unlike Florida or Colorado case law), and Nevada series LLCs are recognised. Combined with private trust company friendly statutes, Nevada is a credible base for asset protection and family office structures.
