Vanessa L. Maczko Joins Wiggin and Dana’s Private Client Services Department
Wiggin and Dana is pleased to announce that Vanessa L. Maczko has joined the firm’s Greenwich, Connecticut office as a partner in the Private Client Services Department.
With extensive experience in lifetime planning, Maczko focuses her practice on advising moderate- to high-net-worth individuals and families globally on multigenerational asset transfers, such as closely held business interests, marketable securities, art collections, real estate, tangible personal property and insurance policies.
“Vanessa’s ability to devise creative solutions that allow individuals and families with substantial assets to maximize their wealth for themselves and future generations will infuse unique value into the firm’s relationships with high-net-worth clients,” said Michael T. Clear, chair of Wiggin and Dana’s Private Client Services Department.
The department provides a full spectrum of private client services — in collaboration with clients’ other consultants and advisers — to craft seamless and effective estate planning strategies that address both economic and non-economic concerns.
Maczko joins from Proskauer Rose LLP, where she advised clients on lifetime and testamentary multigenerational transfers. Before that, Vanessa was an associate at Weil, Gotshal and Manges LLP, where she focused her practice on wills and trusts.
Maczko earned her LL.M. from New York University, J.D. from Harvard Law School, and B.A. from the University of Michigan. She is licensed to practice in Connecticut and New York.
