For decades, Warner Norcross + Judd attorneys have provided family offices with a full complement of legal services, including tax strategy, estate planning, entity formation and governance, private equity and transaction evaluations, asset protection, risk management, real estate and corporate services and related dispute resolution and litigation.
Our family office clients range from multimillion-dollar organizations with little or no full-time staff to complex and multi-faceted organizations with a large number of employees and billions in net worth. We build relationships with our family office clients so we can understand their priorities and expectations. Sometimes, through legacy planning, we even help them define their missions, visions, goals and values, which create their priorities and expectations. And because we have specialists in so many different areas, we often can find quick answers to complicated questions.
The Private Client and Family Office Group can provide very specific and limited services or serve as a one-stop-shopping alternative for family offices. For many family offices we not only counsel our clients on their day-to-day business decisions and issues, but we also proactively help identify and achieve long-term goals and strategies. We offer to assist with all legal decisions and we are open to providing these and all our other services under alternative or fixed fee arrangements.
