Mark Shiller has been helping families manage the personal, financial, and legal aspects of intergenerational transfers of wealth throughout his 30-year career as an estate and business succession planning attorney. In that time, he has collaborated with some of the most creative and engaging minds in the field - and he includes many of his wonderful clients in that list. Maintaining a posture of openness and intellectual curiosity in both his personal and professional life has allowed for deeper and more successful engagements with families pursuing positive outcomes with wealth transfers – even when the odds might seem stacked against them. His professional success in these matters and his knack for explaining complex topics and connecting them to real world solutions has made Mark a sought-after speaker as well as time as a member of the National Trust School faculty of the American Bankers Association and as an adjunct professor at the University of Wisconsin Law School. He’s become known as someone who gets to the heart of the matter and addresses the tough stuff with compassion, empathy and optimism. Audiences and those who bring Mark in to speak also appreciate the humor he brings to every speech, workshop and interaction with him – no doubt enhanced in part due to his continuing, over 20-year “side hustle” as a professional improv comedian with the national comedy troupe, Fish Sticks Comedy.Mark lives just outside of Milwaukee, Wisconsin with his wife in their home that also used to house their four adult children.Read more about this authorRead less about this author
