Congratulations to our colleague, Clay Purdom, on this new role as president of FWS Enterprises, the Smith family’s newly established family office overseeing its investments and philanthropic efforts. We are proud to see Clay take this next step in support of a family whose vision and generosity continue to shape Memphis and honor Fred Smith’s legacy.
Clay will remain of counsel at Martin Tate, and our firm is honored to continue serving the Smith family as FWSe’s primary outside legal counsel.
We are also pleased to welcome Rob Malin, JD, LLM, EPLS to our estate planning group. Rob brings more than 15 years of experience in trust law, estate planning, and wealth management and currently chairs the Tennessee Bar Association’s Estate Planning and Probate Section. His experience will be a tremendous asset as he works alongside Clay to support FWSe and serves clients across our practice.
We are grateful for the Smith family’s continued trust and excited for the work ahead.
