International and offshore LLC structuring

I could be off, but there's not a single post on structuring LLC's internationally on BiggerPockets.

The US, a litiguous society, has a pretty decent deal to protect yourself through LLC's, but that's not the case in e.g. Western-European countries. As a consequence, you can't protect yourself, even if the legal system protects individuals better than in the US.

Often, inheritance and liquidation tax will murder your equity, while an LLC eradicates your NOI (different tax structure than personal income-generating assets).

Now, I'm not talking about a mailbox company in Belize with a front representative in Hong Kong or anything illegal like that, but I keep thinking to myself: there has to be a better way.

Who here knows a little about these types of things and where can I get myself educated on the matter?
