Bilzin Sumberg Expands Tax & Private Wealth Group as Florida Experiences a Surge of Inbound Business and Wealth Migration
Miami, FL – Buoyed by an influx of business and wealth migration into Florida, law firm Bilzin Sumberg is growing its Tax & Private Wealth Group with the addition of one attorney who counsels domestic and international companies, as well as high net worth families and individuals. Shawn Wolf arrives as a Partner. This addition bolsters the firm’s expertise in the areas of sophisticated tax and estate planning, trust creation and administration, international regulatory compliance, and corporate structures and taxation.
Additionally, Bilzin Sumberg Partner Jennifer J. Wioncek will assume the role of Tax & Private Wealth Group Leader, overseeing the team alongside Practice Chair Richard Goldstein.
The expansion of Bilzin Sumberg’s Tax & Private Wealth Group comes as nearly 1,000 new residents migrate to Florida each day, drawn to the promise of tax and cost savings, a high potential for business growth, and improved quality of life offerings. Bilzin Sumberg has excelled over the years at anticipating economic cycles and seizing opportunity within the key sectors that drive Florida, with the firm’s tax and estate professionals often called upon to counsel business leaders from across the state and beyond.
“Bilzin Sumberg has long been home to a market-leading team of tax and estate planning professionals, and we’re deepening our focus on tax and estate planning with an eye toward Florida’s future,” says Bilzin Sumberg Managing Partner Albert E. Dotson, Jr. “Companies, families and individuals from across the U.S. and abroad are looking to Florida as an increasingly desirable place to call home, invest capital, and grow a business, and all indications are that this inbound migration trend will continue so long as our state sustains its business-friendly policies.”
Shawn Wolf, who was a shareholder at Packman Neuwahl Rosenberg, joins Bilzin Sumberg as a partner focused on international and domestic tax strategies, as well as estate planning and corporate matters. He specializes in matters involving the application of U.S. Federal income tax rules to taxpayers conducting business abroad, as well as foreign nationals investing in the U.S. Shawn also assists clients in forming and operating domestic and offshore businesses, including corporations, partnerships and limited liability companies.
