Subject: [WSBAPT] Ownership of home In LLC?

I have a client who has a large business, fully insured, however the activity has a potential for substantial liability (environmental, accidents to workers).  It is owned as a sole proprietor by client with his wife.

He and his wife owns some real property including a family home.

It would be difficult to transfer everything in the business into an LLC. because of the nature of the assets.  Same with transferring everything into a Corporation.  Also he may sell the business in a year or so.

He is hoping for some reduction in risk exposure to his  nonbusiness assets.

I have told him that their isn’t  a lot of protection available, however, an LLC might be helpful (create a small barrier) for a business related claim, if for some reason he doesn’t have enough insurance.

Is there a problem if he puts the real property he and she owns in an LLC?  Would it provide any protection to their assets? Other suggestions?
