Multidisciplinary Legal Support for Your Family

At Stuart Green Law, we put a premium on a multidisciplinary approach to client service. Our understanding for collaboration across disciplines and advisors has proven invaluable to clients in the pursuit of the ongoing success of the family business and personal interests. Our deep experience in tax, law, accounting, finance, and philanthropy means we don’t just provide legal answers, but we provide comprehensive answers and solutions to our clients’ most pressing needs.

While every wealthy family may not be ready for a true “family office,” many are in deep need of a trusted family advisor who is always on call to lead the family through the entire spectrum of complex business issues and personal obstacles. This has led many clients to consider our team to be part of their family as we work with many multi-family offices.

How We Can Help You & Your Family

Wealthy families often have a deep bench of advisors, but they rarely have a leader. That’s where we step in. Our Family Office attorney services can take many forms and may include one-off projects that have to be quarterbacked or on-going guidance and leadership.

Our Family Office clients often have a broad array of investments, businesses, and personal issues surrounding general lifestyle, travel, personal matters for family members, income tax and estate planning strategies, liability protection, entity creation, state and federal securities, and accounting compliance issues, among others. When it is an issue outside of our immediate purview, we identify and coordinate with other professionals in different disciplines to assist. We regularly coordinate issues related to the following areas for clients:
