METHODS FOR MANAGING DIFFICULT BENEFICIARIES

LAUREN WOLVEN

  Sponsored by CliftonLarsonAllen and Catholic Foundation

 

Addiction and mental health issues present significant risks to family wellbeing and wealth preservation, and recent research suggests higher incidence of these issues within affluent communities. These beneficiaries oftentimes disrupt and modify the family dynamic, sometimes even in ways that are not readily apparent.  This presentation will address techniques for working with beneficiaries who face mental health or substance abuse challenges, autism spectrum and other executive functioning disorders.    Lauren Wolven is a partner in the Trusts & Estates Group of Levenfeld Pearlstein, LLC in Chicago. She concentrates her practice on estate planning, tax and succession for privately held businesses, charitable planning and fiduciary risk management.  A Fellow of the American College of Trust and Estate Counsel, and Illinois State Chair for ACTEC, Lauren is a frequent lecturer and author on a variety of estate planning and trust administration topics.  She has co-authored two BNA portfolios, "Estate Planning for Unmarried Adults" and "Managing Litigation Risks of Fiduciaries". Lauren is a graduate of Indiana University and earned her J.D. from University of Illinois College of Law.
