This Cook Islands Trust webinar is a free educational session hosted by Attorney Blake Harris, going live on April 15, 2025 at 1:00 PM Eastern to walk you through how offshore asset protection actually works — no pitch, no pressure. This is an open, no-cost event. The goal is to give you a clear and honest picture of one of the strongest asset protection structures available to U.S. residents — so you can make an informed decision about whether it is right for your situation.

What You Will Learn

The webinar will cover the 6 key questions that come up most often when people are first evaluating offshore asset protection:
  1. Why the Cook Islands Trust is widely regarded as the strongest offshore asset protection structure available to U.S. residents
  2. How the trust legally shields assets from lawsuits, creditors, and judgments — and why U.S. courts cannot reach them
  3. Who benefits most from this structure, and who may not need it
  4. What the setup process looks like, including timeline, costs, and ongoing compliance
  5. How digital assets such as Bitcoin and Ethereum can be integrated into an offshore plan
  6. Live Q&A with Attorney Blake Harris

Why the Cook Islands

The Cook Islands has built its statutory framework specifically around asset protection. Unlike domestic planning structures, a Cook Islands Trust is governed by foreign law, administered by a foreign trustee, and structured under legislation that does not recognize foreign court orders. Creditors who seek to reach trust assets must initiate new litigation in the Cook Islands itself — under Cook Islands law, with local counsel, and against strict procedural requirements that significantly raise the cost and complexity of any claim. The result is a structure that shifts the battlefield offshore and changes the economics of litigation against you. Many cases resolve not because the trust is invincible, but because pursuing enforcement becomes economically unattractive for a potential plaintiff. The Cook Islands government maintains the legal framework governing these structures through the Cook Islands Ministry of Justice. To learn more about how these structures work before the webinar, see our overview of Cook Islands Trusts and our guide to offshore asset protection.
The Cook Islands remains, in my view, the gold standard for offshore asset protection. This webinar is about giving you the information you need to understand it clearly — before making any decisions.

Who Should Attend

This webinar is designed for high-net-worth individuals, business owners, real estate investors, medical and legal professionals, and anyone evaluating their exposure to litigation risk. This Cook Islands Trust webinar requires no prior knowledge of offshore planning to follow along. The goal is plain-language clarity — not legal jargon. If you have wondered whether a Cook Islands Trust is appropriate for your situation, or if you have existing offshore planning and want a clearer understanding of how your structure works, this is the right session to attend.
