Dina has considerable experience in the development of wealth management structures for residents and nonresidents of the United States.

Dina is a frequent speaker at international tax and estate planning seminars around the world, including New York, Miami, Los Angeles, London, Switzerland, and Bermuda. She also has written or co-written several articles on international estate planning topics that appeared in periodicals such as The New York Law Journal, Trusts & Estates magazine, the STEP USA Journal; and Estate Planning magazine.
