Stuart Kohn Email & Phone Number

In my role as a partner in Levenfeld Pearlstein’s Trusts & Estate group, I concentrate my practice in estate, gift and income tax planning and business succession planning, and have significant experience with complex estate and trust administration matters. I also work with clients to design and implement asset protection strategies.I routinely work with high net-worth individuals and their families to ensure their wishes are met with respect to the passing of their wealth. Throughout that process, I work to implement strategies that maximize the value of assets passing to intended beneficiaries, while minimizing the tax impact on my client to the greatest extent possible. Understanding the financial and tax considerations is a key to my practice, but equally important is the sensitivity to the emotions surrounding these decisions. I recognize that clients find comfort in knowing and understanding their options, and I work to clearly communicate my planning strategy and resulting considerations.I am a member of the esteemed estate planning organization, the American College of Trust and Estate Counsel (ACTEC). I am also a frequent lecturer and am active in a number of legal organizations, and am a Past Chair of the Executive Committee of the Chicago Bar Association’s Trust Law Committee. Additionally, I served as President and am a former member of the Board of Directors of the Greater North Shore Estate & Financial Planning Council.Attorney Advertising Material
