Greg also administers probate estates, prepares gift and estate tax returns, and handles a variety of transactional matters for individuals, family groups, and owners of closely held businesses. 

Interfamily transfer of wealth is often an emotionally charged process. Greg understands the complicated dynamics that exist within families facing important financial decisions. He draws on his negotiating skills and common-sense approach to help clients align their individual interests and create agreement across generations and family groups. When necessary, he helps resolve conflicts and contested estates through formal negotiations, settlements, and litigation.

Much More Than My Work

I like finding common ground and connecting with people. I frequently seek out live music and enjoy vacationing in the Caribbean with my family. I’m an avid Chicago sports fan as well as a decent fantasy football manager.
