Carlton A. Weiss
About this Special Guest
Carlton Weiss was a private investigator during the 1970s and 1980s when economic conditions in the US were much like today. He based his business around piercing corporate veils and other asset protection strategies. During his years in the business he noticed a common tie between all asset protection strategies prepared by attorneys.
That tie is legislative statutes rather than common-law rights which everybody naturally possesses. He noticed that the mere statutory nature of the protection made it loose and easily penetrated. Mr. Weiss was required to take his knowledge a step further by making it his specialty and formal law study. Before signing on with NACRS he would go on to become a private advisor to some of the most successful collections firms and attorneys in the West, teaching them how to pierce pure trusts and other faulty non-statutory entities.
He is a collector of rare and antiquarian lawbooks, particularly in the area of trust & admiralty law, a hobby he took up during the archive research he did as a private investigator on Express Trusts under the Common Law, which was finally synthesized into Weiss’s Concise Trustee Handbook. He found these trusts in particular are the only ones safe from courts and government, and his systematic approach is proof positive of the fact.
