Asset attorney in state of residence or state of OOS properties? Make a Difference?
I have a primary residence in CA and 5 investment properties OOS and I have insurance (and an umbrella policy on properties under my name directly) on all property. I'm wanting to connect with an asset protection specialist to ensure that I have legal entities etc. setup correctly and I'm covering all my bases. My question is, as a resident of CA does it make a difference if I'm using an attorney/asset protection specialist in my home state or in the state where I own rentals?
Not sure if it makes a difference, looking for first hand thoughts here. Thanks in advance.
