What I Do
Three disciplines.
One integrated practice.
Christopher operates across three disciplines, connecting estate law, insurance strategy, and legacy planning into a unified approach that serves the whole person, not just one piece of the puzzle.
The legal architecture that protects what you've built. Christopher's estate planning practice, operated through Gipe Law, provides the foundational legal framework for high-net-worth individuals and families.
- Revocable & irrevocable trust design and administration
- Comprehensive wills and testamentary planning
- Advanced healthcare directives and powers of attorney
- Entity structuring for asset protection
- Business succession planning
- Charitable giving strategies and family foundations
Estate planning isn't just a legal exercise. It's the first conversation about what you want your wealth to mean. Every document should serve the bigger picture.
Insurance is too often treated as a standalone product. Christopher's brokerage treats it as a strategic layer, built from the start to work alongside your estate plan and long-term objectives.
- Life insurance analysis and placement
- Wealth transfer and estate liquidity strategies
- Insurance-funded buy-sell agreements
- Premium financing solutions
- Policy review and optimization
- Multi-generational insurance planning
The right insurance strategy doesn't just protect against risk. It actively enables the kind of legacy you're building. It has to fit the architecture, not just fill a gap.
Legacy & Financial Planning
Where It All Comes Together
This is where it all comes together. Legacy planning is the strategic layer that connects legal structure, insurance strategy, and financial reality into a coherent, intentional whole.
- Holistic legacy design and family governance
- Cross-generational wealth transition strategies
- Integration of legal, insurance, and financial plans
- Values-driven planning and legacy conversations
- Family meeting facilitation and legacy conversations
- Ongoing advisory and plan evolution
Wealth is a reflection of the life you've built and the values you hold. A legacy plan should honor both. Not just divide assets, but carry forward intention.
