Estates of Artists and Collectors
Artist estates pose unique and often complex issues. My estate planning practice provides me with experience to help artists plan for their legacy, intellectual property, and heirs. Likewise, fine art collectors need specific tax and intellectual property planning focused on the particular aspects of fine art assets. In my estate planning practice I take pride in utilizing knowledge that assists both artists and collectors to craft plans tailored to their specific needs.
