Looking to protect your life's work from being lost to a lawsuit?
Here’s how the team at Skabelund Law can help.
Asset Protection
Building wealth takes hard work, strategic planning, and risk. The Skabelund firm works with clients on custom-designed plans to reduce liability and exposure and provide security to your family’s financial legacy.
Your Peace of Mind is Our Passion
At Skabelund, we work with a range of unique clients on custom-designed plans to reduce liability and exposure and provide security to their family’s financial legacy.
Real estate investors
Real estate investors take significant risks to build wealth, and with risk comes exposure to liability. Our custom strategies for real estate investors mitigate risk, protect assets, and offer peace of mind.
Business Owners
What happens to your business or shares in it after you retire raises complicated questions. Long-range estate planning answers those questions in advance. We also work with clients who are still active in their enterprises and can assist with potential mergers and acquisitions.
Take the Next Step in Preserving your Legacy
A lot of things go into asset protection and estate planning, but for us it’s all about one thing: legacy. The desire to see what one has built preserved and passed down to future generations. It’s about family, and our goal is to help you grow, preserve, and protect that family legacy. Here are some of our clients’ most common questions:
How do I choose an asset protection lawyer?
The best place to start is by asking what kind of work and what kind of clients the asset protection lawyer has worked with before. At Skabelund, we believe we have something compelling to offer clients because of our track record working with high net-worth clients, including those with portfolios of $100 million. When we talk about the need to think outside the box and be strategic, we’re doing so from the posture of having done it before, many times over.
How do I protect my house?
The most straightforward way to protect one’s residence from creditors is to put the property in an Irrevocable Trust. Once five years have passed, the family home has protection. Whether the straightforward plan is the best plan will depend on the specific situation of each client.
Why Do I Need A Custom Tailored Plan?
Each person and each business is unique, with goals, plans, and concerns unlike anyone else’s. A cookie-cutter template will only include the basics that are common to everyone. That almost certainly means client-specific issues get ignored—omissions that can be expensive if the right (or wrong) circumstances develop.

"Christina and her assistant Kristi were amazing!"
Christina and her assistant Kristi were amazing! It took me a long time to get my husband in to get our affairs in order…even he admitted it was a fairly easy process and he’s glad we did it. I feel so much better knowing our wishes are now written down for our family and things will be taken care of in the event something should ever happen to us.
