JMM partner and Family Office Group founder and chairman, Timothy Lappen, was selected for inclusion in Worth Magazine’s list of “Top 100 Attorneys in the United States” for his decades of distinguished service as the trusted business and personal advisor to individuals of high net worth, their families, their businesses, and their family offices. He also was honored with the peer-judged award of Lawyer of the Year for Closely-Held Companies and Family-Business Law in Los Angeles, the peer-judged award of Lawyer of the Year for Trusts & Estates Law in Los Angeles, and has been the recipient of the peer-judged award of Best Lawyer for Closely-Held and Family-Business Law and/or Trust & Estates Law every year since 2018 (the awards’ inception). JMM partner Gordon Schaller also was named to the Worth list. The prestigious Worth list recognizes lawyers for their outstanding expertise, insight, trustworthiness, and commitment to client needs. Lawyers were selected by both Worth and Best Lawyers after a year of extensive research by each publication’s editorial staff, which reviews hundreds of nominations by readers, financial advisors, family office executives, accountants, consultants, and academics. In addition, Tim Lappen is one of a very few invited speakers who have presented at the Milken Institute Global Conference for an unprecedented eight consecutive years and also has presented at the Institutional Investor Wealth Conference/Lido Consulting Family Office Wealth Conference at innumerable sessions, as well as to groups as disparate as the UCLA Anderson School’s Family Business Conference (for which he was a founding board member), the USC Marshall School (for which he was a board member), the Institute for Private Investors, TIGER 21, and multiple other family office-related events hosted by international financial advisory firms and peer networks such as YPO. Tim also is a frequently invited guest at several financial service firms that ask him to present to their in-house teams.
