Fred B. Weber

Fred Weber is of counsel in the Chicago office of Kirkland & Ellis LLP. Fred’s practice primarily focuses on representing individual and professional fiduciaries on post-death administration matters along with helping individuals and families to better prepare for post-death administration well before a death actually occurs.

Prior to returning to private law practice, Fred spent 18 years working as a professional fiduciary, first at the JPMorgan Private Bank and most recently with Northern Trust Wealth Management. As a professional fiduciary, Fred focused primarily on guiding families, beneficiaries and co-fiduciaries through the process of post-death administration of estates and trusts. In addition to his work as a professional fiduciary, he has worked in planned giving and charitable bequest administration for a large public charity.
