Today, I have the pleasure of speaking with Kevin Quinn, founder and president of Legacy Counsellors, an estate and business planning law firm serving successful individuals and families throughout New England. Kevin is a former Fellow of the Esperti-Peterson Institute and a member of the WealthCounsel, LLC, and a former member of the National Council on Planned Giving and the Connecticut Planned Giving Group.

He is a co-founder of the Wealth Legacy Development Project, an organization dedicated to helping non-profit organizations develop planned giving programs. Kevin is the founder and an instructor of the Wealth Strategies Institute, a professional education institute that provides continuing education to certified public accountants, certified financial planners, attorneys, development officers, and insurance professionals.

Kevin focuses his practice and work with families on the goal of "maximizing the utility of everyone in the family". He talks about the meaning of this objective and how he approaches it in practice with UHNW families.

Kevin describes the outcome of his work with families often being that they together identify underutilized resources and capital within the family and redeploy those in a timely, effective, and collectively fulfilling ways. He describes how this happens, where this pent-up energy is usually hidden within families, and how they can unlock it.

Kevin created an intergenerational family wealth program, which he named "My Family My Wealth" that helps families structure a process to collectively talk about and share their abundance. He walks us through this program and highlights how it creates value for enterprise families.

Another practical resource Kevin has formulated and recommends to families is the "Top 5 Ways to Use Your Family Wealth to Help Your Family Flourish". He shares with our audience this framework and its components, and highlights how families can benefit from it.

Enjoy this informative conversation with a successful practitioner in the UHNW family wealth space.
