Family foundations

We advise entrepreneurs and their families on using a family foundation as a tool for long-term wealth management and for structuring the relationships between the founder, beneficiaries, and the business.

We support clients both at the decision-making stage of establishing a foundation and throughout its ongoing operation. A family foundation enables the planning of asset management rules, the definition of how beneficiaries may use those assets, and the preservation of the integrity of both the business and family wealth over the long term. Its proper design is crucial—taking into account the family situation, the asset structure, and the founder’s objectives. Our role is to translate these considerations into solutions that are legally sound, tax-efficient, and practical to implement.We provide comprehensive legal and tax support at every stage of a family foundation’s lifecycle.
