How do I protect my assets against lawsuits and nursing homes? In general, if you own your assets, they are available to those who sue you or to a nursing facility providing care to you. One of the only asset-protection devices left to you is to create an Irrevocable Trust and transfer some or all of your assets into it during your lifetime. This strategy should be thoroughly discussed with your estate planning attorney.
