Frequently Asked Questions
Your assets are personal. Your concerns are real. We get that you want straight answers without the legal jargon, and that's exactly what you'll find here. If something's still unclear after reading, just reach out. We're here to talk things through.
We're talking about strategic moves to shield your wealth from creditors, lawsuits, and unexpected financial hits. Think of it as legal armor for your business, investments, and personal property. We map out everything—from business structure optimization to trust strategies to insurance gaps. It's not about hiding money (that's illegal). It's about smart positioning so your hard work stays protected.
We don't do one-size-fits-all pricing. A solo consultant's plan costs differently than a manufacturing company with 47 employees and multiple properties. Most clients invest between €2,400 and €8,900 for comprehensive planning. We charge flat fees for clarity—no surprise bills halfway through. Some folks just need a single strategy reviewed; others want the full deep-dive. Tell us your situation, and we'll quote honestly.
Start to finish? Usually 6 to 12 weeks. Here's the breakdown: initial consultation and documentation gathering (2-3 weeks), analysis and strategy development (3-4 weeks), implementation and paperwork (2-3 weeks), then follow-up and adjustments. Some straightforward cases wrap up faster. Complex multi-state or international situations take longer. We'll give you a realistic timeline upfront, not vague promises.
No legitimate professional will guarantee that. What we do is implement proven strategies that dramatically reduce vulnerability. Proper structuring, the right business entity, trust arrangements—these create serious legal barriers. We've helped 183 clients fortify their positions substantially. But guarantees? That's when you know someone's selling snake oil. We're honest about what works and what doesn't.
We're based in Dornbirn and work throughout Austria and the EU region. International asset protection? Yes, but with complexity. We handle cross-border situations, but often collaborate with local specialists in other countries to ensure compliance. If you've got assets scattered across multiple jurisdictions, that's exactly the kind of challenge we tackle. Just know it requires more planning and coordination.
Simple. Call +43 2 0754 8350 or email [email protected]. We'll schedule a 30-minute initial chat—free, no pressure. Bring details about your business structure, properties you own, current liabilities, and any upcoming concerns. Have your last 2 years of tax returns handy. Nothing scary. Just enough so we understand what we're protecting and why.
Bank transfers work best for us (and give you clean documentation). We'll invoice you with a payment schedule aligned to project milestones. Retainer arrangements for ongoing advisory work are also available. We're flexible within reason, but we don't do payment plans stretching beyond 6 months. Half upfront, half at completion is our standard approach—fair for both sides.
Depends on your situation. For many clients, the initial plan holds solid for 3-5 years. But life changes. You expand the business, acquire property, get married, have kids, sell something big. Those moments demand a review. We offer annual check-ins and ad-hoc updates as needed. Some folks appreciate knowing they can call with questions. Others set it and forget it. You decide what makes sense.
