Katten is a full-service law firm with nearly 700 attorneys in locations across the United States and in London and Shanghai. We strive to be a firm of first choice for clients seeking sophisticated, high-value legal services nationally and globally. While Katten offers an extensive range of legal services across numerous industries, our core areas of practice include corporate, financial services, litigation, real estate, commercial finance, intellectual property and trusts and estates.
We provide strategic and creative solutions, but offer pragmatic advice
that keeps your objectives top-of-mind. And we forge collegial
and collaborative partnerships with our clients to help them succeed.
Â
Our philosophy remains centered around the same principles that guided
the firm’s founding: A desire to be nimble, strategic, creative and
client-centric. Most importantly, a desire to be different.
In my widely respected practice, I, national chair of the firm's Private Wealth practice, bring a variety of important services under one roof for high-net-worth individuals. I offer integrated planning, administration and litigation counseling for individuals, their estates and their businesses, all of it designed to preserve wealth over generations. My advice stretches as far as my clients' financial interests – locally, nationally and globally.
I am the rare trusts and estates attorney that does not focus exclusively on either planning, estate administration, or litigation. Instead, I integrate all three. The result, for clients, is deeper insight in each area that may affect them. I perform my planning and administration with a view to minimizing litigation risk; meanwhile, I litigate cases with a view towards discovering planning opportunities.Â
