Financial Privacy Using Legal Entities

When I speak at workshops, I’m often approached by audience members who want to know how to use legal entities for more than just the tax planning, business development and lawsuit protection benefits. They also want to use them for privacy protection. In this article, we’ll explore their use solely for that purpose.

A Separate Legal Person

By their nature, wide recognition under the law, and tax treatment, legal entities are excellent vehicles to use in protecting your privacy and holding ownership of assets in a way that provides a lower profile and helps enhance protection of your personal and financial privacy.

As an online article author I often notice people stealing my work and then I see it on the Internet somewhere without any mention or credit for it.

Patent Landscaping

New innovation through research is becoming more and more expensive, mostly in case of pharmaceutical industries. If after investing lots on money and efforts, one cannot commercialize their invention due to unforeseen problems with third party patents, then it is a high loss. Thus to ease the commercialization of new research innovations, most innovative and research-driven companies have started outsourcing patent landscaping studies for their future research plans.

Copyright Is Dead! Long Live Copyright!

Infringement. File sharing. Piracy. Counterfeiting. Plagiarism.

Whatever you call it, the theft of copyrighted material is just about impossible to control in our ever-expanding, ever-increasing digital age. In fact, there is a widely held belief that technology has made copyright impossible to enforce.

Take the entertainment industry, for example:

While all school children are taught the dangers of plagiarism of print materials when they write their first term papers, many of these same kids are some of the greatest offenders who believe that internet file sharing of their favorite music is their due simply for being fans of this or that rock or rap group.

Weep Rather For Yourselves

When I heard the news that my father has been wheelchair stricken I was very disturbed. It did not come as a surprise because from my previous visits, I could see that his legs were becoming more and more deformed from the effects of arthritis. He had to move very slowly in order not to loose his balance.

I knew that even in his old age, my father values the freedom to do activities on his own very much. On the phone, he sounded very frustrated when he related how he was not able to go out to buy food, attend to his banking needs, buy medicines and vitamins or just taking walks outdoors anymore.

The Role Of Trademarks

Once you start conducting business, you are going to start running into the topic of intellectual property and trademarks. Understanding the role of a trademark will help you grasp why they are important.

A trademark is a unique form of intellectual property. Most intellectual property is created to protect the person or business creating it. A patent, for example, is designed to protect the inventor from having other parties use it without consent. Copyright works much the same way. A person who writes a hit song should receive compensation from it and copyright is designed to protect the person in this regard.
