But it is a fact.Almost nobody I have seen posting on BP about how they are using LLCs for asset protection is actually providing themselves with any meaningful asset protection.  

A mature couple of Indian extraction have applied for one of my units.

If you build a "practice" there's far less sustainable value but you extract value (read: cash) much, much, MUCH easier than if you're building a business.  

You extract $50k cash and use it to buy a rental with it. 2/3 of the new loan will still be personal interest for your residence, and 1/3 will be business interest for the rental. 1/3 of your interest is deductible against the rental, and 2/3 of the interest goes on the personal deductions Schedule A - where it is deductible but still may be useless under the new tax law (if your total deductions are below the new standard deduction which doubled compared to the old law.)Variation.

With QuickBooks, since I'm able to extract information by customer, vendor, or account code, I no longer file invoices and bills by customer or vendor file, I file them by check number.

Let your lawyer guide you.Your lawyer should be able to initiate the process to extract him from the property.

The disadvantages, the advantages, the fabrication and assembly techniques, the recent projects and developments throughout the world and so fourth...I hope we can have meaningful discussions and debates about this topic and everyone fines something of value that comes from this thread. 

I really want to avoid that if possible but at the same time I don't want a lawyer who is just extracting unnecessary fees from me.

You must be willing to put yourself out there, talk with people, meet with them, and do your best to form meaningful relationships.

Give up on the option and walk away to something more meaningful and easier to do.
