“HIDING HIGH-NET-WORTH ASSETS, WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW,” is a new program and it is the first of its kind. I say this because it highlights how almost anything can be hidden and secretly transferred. I will present this new program with Leila A. Amineddoleh. Leila is a leader in the field of art and cultural heritage law and you can read about her here. Additionally, Leila has published two posts at the Asset Search Blog “Hiding Art Assets, Anonymity & The Panama Papers” and “Recovering Art Assets & Cultural Heritage Property”.
We will present this program on June 12, 2025 at 11:15 am at The Times Square EDITION, 701 7th Avenue in New York City as part of American Conference Institute’s Inaugural Summit On High-Net-Worth Contentious Disputes. Furthermore, “HIDING HIGH-NET-WORTH ASSETS, WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW” is one hour long and its agenda is reproduced below.
HIDING HIGH-NET-WORTH ASSETS, WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW
- Fred L. Abrams / Attorney at Law / The Law Offices of Fred L. Abrams (USA)

Art assets & cultural heritage property, bankruptcy estate assets, bribe payments / corruption proceeds, assets belonging to ultra-high-net worth divorcing spouses, monies held by terrorist financiers and almost anything else can conceivably be secretly transferred. This can be done by using common concealment methods to “wash” the assets in a laundering circuit. Just a few of the common concealment methods include using: multiple jurisdictions, trusts, shell companies, intermediaries (a.k.a “nominees”), portable valuable commodities like diamonds and offshore bank accounts.
By studying these kinds of methods, “HIDING HIGH-NET-WORTH ASSETS, WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW” reveals how individuals and corporations may conceal assets from creditors, domestic tax authorities, law enforcement officials, bankruptcy trustees, court-appointed receivers and others. During “HIDING HIGH-NET-WORTH ASSETS, WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW” Fred L. Abrams discusses the common asset concealment methods and uses a sanitized case from his legal files to show how money laundering circuits work. To highlight the fact that almost anything can be secretly transferred and hidden, Leila A. Amineddoleh talks about the ways determined criminals and others try to hide art assets & cultural heritage property.
