Ice Miller's Trusts, Estates & Private Wealth practice group assists clients with navigating the complexities of growing and protecting their wealth. The group draws upon significant experience to provide legal counsel in connection with gift, estate, and cross-generation transfer taxes, complex estate and trust planning, trust and estate administration, charitable giving, business owner transition planning, and wealth preservation.

Ice Miller lawyers work hand-in-hand with our clients’ professional advisors, such as private wealth managers, trust officers, financial planners, investment advisors, family office managers, accountants, insurance agents, business appraisers, and other lawyers to ensure clients’ estate plans are consistent with their goals and coordinated with their financial structure.

"Serving high-net-worth individuals and families requires more than technical expertise, it requires trust, long-term relationships, and an understanding of what matters most to each client," said Joshua L. Christie, Chief Managing Partner at Ice Miller. "Andrew, Gina, and Kristine exemplify that approach every day, and this recognition reflects the confidence our clients place in them and our entire private wealth team."
