Fiduciary Trust International recently issued the following announcement.

Fiduciary Trust Company International, a global wealth manager and wholly-owned subsidiary of Franklin Templeton, announces that Anna Soliman has joined its Los Angeles office as trust counsel.

“Anna possesses trust and estate administration and wealth planning expertise which will help support our growing Southern California client base,” said Lawrence A. Sternkopf, president and chief operating officer of Fiduciary Trust Company International. “We look forward to working with her to continue the development of holistic wealth plans for our clients and their families.”

Ms. Soliman was most recently an associate in the tax and wealth department at Venable LLP in Los Angeles, where her responsibilities included crafting and preparing complex estate plans and business succession plans for high-net-worth individuals. She also assisted clients in matters ranging from trust administration and probate to Internal Revenue Service (IRS) audits.

Prior to Venable LLP, Ms. Soliman was an associate in the private client services department at Proskauer Rose LLP in Los Angeles, where she drafted estate plans and documents for complex wealth transfer transactions on behalf of ultra-high-net-worth individuals. Earlier in her career, Ms. Soliman worked for the IRS as an estate tax attorney and served as deputy district attorney in the Sacramento County District Attorney’s Office.

“Fiduciary Trust has a well-deserved reputation in our industry, and in this region, as a client-focused advisor and partner,” said Stephen J. Dutka, Fiduciary Trust International Company’s regional managing director for Southern California. “We continue to add experienced and respected professionals like Anna to our Los Angeles office to help more clients in Southern California manage and transfer their wealth, and implement legacies, in accordance with their wishes.”

Ms. Soliman received her master of laws (LLM) from Chapman University School of Law. She also earned her juris doctor from the University of California Davis School of Law and graduated cum laude from the University of California at Irvine with a bachelor of arts in philosophy.
