Large-firm advisors focused on multi-generational wealth transfer in New York

The right financial advisor for you depends on how you weigh location, expertise, experience, the clients they typically serve, and how they work with you.

When you're planning to pass wealth across multiple generations, you need an advisor who understands the long-term family dynamics and tax implications involved. Without this focus, it's easy to overlook how decisions today affect your heirs decades from now. Large-firm advisors often have access to extensive resources and specialized teams that can support complex wealth transfer strategies.

  • Family governance insight. Ask how they help families create structures that balance control and flexibility across generations.
  • Tax strategy depth. Confirm they consider estate, gift, and generation-skipping transfer taxes in their planning.
  • Legacy alignment. Look for advisors who integrate your family's values and goals into wealth transfer decisions.
  • Coordination with specialists. Check how they collaborate with estate attorneys and tax professionals to execute comprehensive plans.

Here are top matches to get you started. Review each profile to compare experience, credentials, and approach.
