Protecting Family Wealth – it's all fine…until it's not

A panel discussion exploring the interplay between UHNW wealth and asset protection strategies and issues that arise when a dispute unfolds.  Many UHNW individuals and families structure their wealth across a number of jurisdictions with a focus on tax efficient structures and family convenience without considering the unintended consequences if a dispute arises.  When and if family or businesses circumstances change and a dispute arises, the best laid plans to preserve assets can unravel quickly in a dispute and can make litigation inevitable and enforcement problematic. The panel will explore nuances and some lessons learned in dealing with global structures, family and trust arrangements and assets in a number of different jurisdictions.
