Our managing partner, Tom Greene, has a background that goes beyond traditional legal training, having served as a CEO of a public company and a senior investment banker at Goldman Sachs in New York. This financial expertise allows us to offer practical advice on mergers, acquisitions, and risk management.

Advanced Asset Protection Trusts and Liability Shielding

At Liberty Street Law Group, we believe shielding your life's work from creditor lawsuits is critical. Asset protection must be implemented proactively before visible risks arise. We specialize in preventing liabilities in one business from leaking into your personal assets or other commercial ventures. Our attorneys are experts in forming asset protection trusts and setting up LLCs in highly protective states. For example, we frequently establish Wyoming asset protection trusts through our partner, Pierpont Trust, to take advantage of Wyoming's favorable laws, zero state income tax, and unmatched creditor protection.

We offer experienced estate planning services to help clients create wills, establish trusts, and manage probate matters. Additionally, we specialize in business succession planning, helping business owners draft clear plans for transitioning leadership and ownership to the next generation.
