John Bunge

Expert guidance on a complex family trust matter

My family engaged John Bunge at Holland & Knight to help restructure a multi-generational trust that had become outdated and administratively cumbersome. From our initial consultation in his Nashville office, it was clear we were working with a true specialist. John’s deep knowledge of Tennessee trust law, honed over his 12 years of practice, was immediately evident. He patiently explained the nuances of decanting the old trust and establishing new, more flexible vehicles for my siblings and our children. His recognition by Best Lawyers in Trusts and Estates was well-deserved; his strategic approach was both meticulous and practical, ensuring our goals for asset protection and smooth succession were met. The entire process was handled with professionalism and a genuine personal touch. The only slight drawback was that during particularly busy periods, response times to non-urgent emails could stretch to a couple of days, but his associate was always available as a backup. Overall, John provided exceptional value and peace of mind on a sensitive family matter.
