Offshore Trusts, Global Team, Media Mindset: Blake Harris Is Not Your Typical Lawyer | EP191

July 30, 2025

Blake Harris is the founder of Blake Harris Law, the largest exclusively offshore asset protection law firm in the United States. With a team spread across four continents, Blake has built a niche global practice helping high-net-worth individuals legally protect their assets through Cook Islands trusts and other offshore strategies.

In this episode, Blake breaks down how his firm grew by narrowing focus, embracing content creation, and rejecting the traditional image of a law office. He explains how social media became a tool for trust-building, why he abandoned domestic estate planning, and how he hires team members from unconventional places — including front desks, social DMs, and international job boards.

This isn’t just about trusts. It’s about creating leverage, working remotely before it was trendy, and building a brand clients feel like they already know before the first phone call. You’ll also hear Blake’s thoughts on confidence, criticism, client education, and why offshore asset protection isn’t just for the ultra-wealthy — it’s smart business.
