Awesome Attorneys features Phillips Nizer in a firm profile highlighting our history and work in domestic and international trusts and estates.
Awesome Attorneys mentions that, "Phillips Nizer was founded in 1926 by two men whose names carried real weight in their own right: Louis Nizer, considered one of the most outstanding trial lawyers of the twentieth century, and Louis Phillips, who served as Vice President and General Counsel of Paramount Pictures. A century later, the firm’s Trusts and Estates department has built a specific, unusual niche within that broader legacy — international and transnational estate planning — that most full-service New York firms of comparable size do not maintain as a dedicated specialty."
The article highlights Michael W. Galligan and Trusts & Estates Department, and his experience in the areas of domestic and international estates and trusts, U.S. and cross-border estate and income tax planning, private international law, and immigration.
