Personal

Outside of the office, Jon enjoys adventurous travel worldwide and alpine skiing in the mountains surrounding Salt Lake City. He’s also a PSIA-certified ski instructor.

Jon Alper is a recognized pioneer in Florida asset protection law, specializing in the practical, tested domestic and offshore asset protection structures.

Throughout his fifty-year legal career, Jon has been at the forefront of landmark legal shifts in Florida. He was instrumental in the seminal case of BankFirst v. UBS Paine Webber, Inc., which helped legitimize asset protection planning by attorneys in the state. His expertise centers on maximizing Florida’s constitutional and statutory exemptions to provide clients with strong protection and settlement leverage.

Jon is not engaged in any business other than being a lawyer. He does not sell investments or insurance. He does not sell books and tapes. He does not promote seminars to sell packaged asset protection programs. His primary reward is his clients’ appreciation and satisfaction.
