Blake Harris Law

What Blake Harris Law does

Blake Harris Law is a Miami Beach-based, founder-owned law firm founded in 2013 that specializes exclusively in offshore asset protection through Cook Islands International Trusts. The firm serves high-net-worth individuals — typically with assets in the $3 million to $20 million+ range — including business owners, real estate investors, and high-liability professionals (physicians, attorneys, developers) seeking to shield wealth from U.S. lawsuits, creditors, divorce proceedings, and bankruptcy claims. Its core offering pairs a Cook Islands Trust with an optional Cook Islands LLC, leveraging the Cook Islands legal system's non-recognition of foreign judgments, a 1-2 year fraudulent-transfer statute of limitations, licensed offshore trustees outside U.S. subpoena reach, and mandatory duress clauses. Blake Harris, the firm's sole named attorney, co-founded Atlas Trust Company in 2023 as the recommended licensed Cook Islands trustee, vertically integrating trustee access into the firm's service stack.

The firm operates on a flat-fee model with no hourly billing, with educational materials referencing setup costs of $15,000-$30,000 and annual monitoring fees of $5,000-$10,000; most structures fund within 30-40 days of signing. Go-to-market is content-driven and consultation-led: a free 30-minute confidential consultation, monthly webinars, an extensive article library, sustained earned media in Forbes, Bloomberg, Fortune, USA Today, Law360, and CLE faculty roles at Cerifi LegalEdge, LexVid, and Rossdale CLE. The firm has published four books between 2020 and 2023 and maintains a social media following described as 'hundreds of thousands.' Headcount is 1-10, and the firm is privately held with no institutional investors.

Operationally, the business is a leveraged professional services practice rather than a scalable legal platform: revenue is generated per engagement with recurring annual monitoring, but throughput is constrained by the founder's personal bandwidth for consultations and trust drafting. The firm's primary risks are founder dependency, jurisdictional/regulatory shifts in the Cook Islands, and reputational exposure inherent in the offshore asset protection industry.

Scale indicators3 records

Expansion highlights5 records

Broad incumbents

• Harneys: International offshore law firm with fiduciary services across BVI, Cayman, Bermuda, and Cyprus. Competes in the offshore trust and corporate services space that underpins Blake Harris's Cook Islands stack, though with broader corporate and litigation practices.
• Trident Trust Company: Global corporate, fiduciary, and trust services group operating across major offshore jurisdictions. Provides trust and corporate services that compete with the trustee layer of Blake Harris's offering, though without the specialized U.S. asset-protection legal advisory focus.
• Maples Group: Global law and fiduciary services group with deep Cayman, BVI, and Irish presence. Provides trust formation, administration, and fiduciary services competing with the Cook Islands / corporate layer of Blake Harris's stack, focused more on institutional and family-office mandates than solo asset protection.
• Ogier: International law firm with significant fiduciary and offshore trust administration practices across BVI, Cayman, Jersey, Guernsey and beyond. A scaled incumbent that competes for HNW offshore structuring mandates, though it serves a broader client base beyond pure asset protection.
• Conyers Trust Company: Bermuda-based fiduciary arm of Conyers Dill & Pearman, providing offshore trust and corporate services. A traditional incumbent in offshore fiduciary markets where Blake Harris competes for the same HNW clientele seeking asset protection through non-U.S. jurisdictions.

Direct peers

• Bjurstrom Roney & Associates: Asset protection and estate planning firm that markets offshore trust formation alongside domestic strategies. Targets overlapping HNW and high-liability professional segments with a multi-jurisdictional approach similar in spirit to Blake Harris's Cook Islands focus.
• Steven M. Kirsch Law & Mediation: Asset protection and estate planning attorney practice serving HNW clients with domestic and offshore structures. Competes in the same high-net-worth asset protection segment, typically evaluated as an alternative for clients comparing offshore counsel.
• Steven J. Oshins & Associates: Prominent Nevada-based asset protection law firm led by Steven Oshins, frequently cited alongside Blake Harris as a top-tier U.S. asset protection attorney. Competes directly for the same HNW and high-liability professional clientele seeking advanced domestic and offshore structures.

Regional players

• Pacific Atlantic Trustees: Cook Islands-based trust company administering international asset protection trusts. Directly competes as a trustee option for clients Blake Harris refers through Atlas, though without an integrated U.S. legal-advisory channel.

Emerging players

• Southpac Trust: Long-standing Cook Islands trust company whose former head of legal (Marcos Almeida) co-founded Atlas Trust Company with Blake Harris. Represents the legacy trustee infrastructure in the Cook Islands that Blake Harris Law now partly bypasses or competes with via the Atlas relationship.
