BUILDING YOUR CASTLE:

A PRACTICAL GUIDE FOR PROTECTING YOUR LEGACY

CHRISTIAN KELSO

Sponsored by Communities Foundation of Texas and Regions Bank

 

Building Your Castle is a practical, step-by-step program for promoting unity and cohesion within the family unit through the implementation of effective family systems and governance.  At the core of this program is the family assembly, which promotes and facilitates a holistic, goal-oriented approach to the management, preservation, and transfer of family wealth.  Building Your Castle bridges the gap between the rigid, cerebral, legal world of estate planning on one hand and the emotional, unpredictable, personal world of family relationships and dynamics on the other.   The program teaches a modular system for developing and implementing successful, periodic family assemblies.  In addition, Building Your Castle also addresses issues such as when to speak with children about family wealth, how to deal with children's spouses, and how to prepare for incapacity of a patriarch or other family member.  Building Your Castle is the number one tool for avoiding costly and heartbreaking litigation the wake of death or incapacity. Christian S. Kelso is a partner at the law firm of Farrow-Gillespie Heath Witter, LLP where he practices in the areas of estate planning, wealth preservation and transfer, probate, tax and transactional corporate law.  His legal practice focuses primarily on finding practical, cost-effective strategies by which families and businesses can avoid costly, and often heartbreaking, disputes in both the courtroom and the living room. Outside of his legal practice, Christian also serves as facilitator and advisor for families wishing to implement family systems and governance.  Christian is a native Dallasite, having attended St. Mark’s School of Texas for twelve years before moving on to the University of Texas at Austin.  Christian came back to Dallas for his J.D. and LL.M. (Taxation), both of which he received at Southern Methodist University.
