Family Office

Willkie has redefined what it means to represent family offices by providing high-end, sophisticated legal and business advice across all relevant disciplines. We advise 80+ single- and multi-family offices of all sizes, including those of a number of the world’s wealthiest families. 

We understand that today’s family offices need informed advice in connection with their investments and portfolios, and the full range of related services, in addition to traditional matters such as trusts and estate planning. Our integrated, cross-practice team includes dozens of partners who provide comprehensive solutions across all asset classes.

We draw on Willkie’s extensive history and experience as a preeminent advisor to private entities. We have counseled private fund sponsors for more than 50 years, and we see the opportunity for family offices to be a significant source of capital for private market transactions going forward. We are well-positioned to leverage our vast experience and apply it to the specific needs of family offices to help them grow in this space.
