Uniqueness

COLLABORATION & EDUCATION

AFHE members provide strategic business guidance with the deep resources needed to address the complex and unique legal challenges of family-held enterprises. Our members have impressive credentials and a history of producing outstanding results.

AFHE IN THE NEWS

Publicity is an effective way to raise awareness of an issue, an event, a campaign or AFHE as an organization. AFHE publicizes and celebrates its members and sponsors achievements through its website, marketing materials, publications, and other communications. Publicity can be used in relation to a specific subject matter, raising awareness of a pressing issue or publicizing the details of our upcoming Annual Conference & Membership Meeting, our Mid-Year Conference, one of our educational webinars, or a number of other AFHE programs and/or events.

AFHE APPRECIATES THEIR SPONSORS

It is the vision of the Board of Directors and the Conference Committee to inform, entertain, educate, and provide a networking forum for our members and sponsors. Our sponsor’s generous contributions annually help make our vision a reality. Sponsorships are the backbone of any organization. It is our sponsor’s support that makes it possible for AFHE to produce exceptional events for our members and sponsors in environments as beautiful and professional as our past venues. AFHE’s success is in large part due to our sponsorship contributions and support.

MULTI-DISCIPLINARY APPROACH

AFHE's membership is located worldwide and serves as a valuable resource to connect public and privately-held family business enterprises, with qualified attorneys and other professionals who have dedicated experience with issues facing family-held businesses. The organizations network and resources are valuable assets. AFHE provides a multi-disciplinary counsel and advice to publicly and privately-held enterprises, their owner-managers and family members.

AFHE serves as a resource for individuals, business entities, trade associations, the business press, and other groups seeking information concerning attorneys with the experience, expertise, and qualifications to address privately-held business issues. AFHE members focus on the establishment, growth, and success of family-held enterprises, the engine behind entrepreneurship.

AFHE provides value to its members through collaboration and access to many legal and non-legal professionals in a variety of practice areas. As a member, AFHE shares information not typically found in textbooks, which enhances the member’s ability to solve their client’s problems through a multi-disciplinary approach.
