Beverly Greenley's Email & Phone

Beverly Greenley is McCarter's quieter, yet equally cheerful, partner. Like McCarter, Greenley is great at making law understandable. She accomplishes this in a variety of ways, including her artistic talents - she loves to draw cartoons, and is actually quite good! She concentrates her law practice in the following fields: income taxation, estate and gift taxation, generation-skipping taxation, probate and trust administration, and business law, including corporate, partnership and limited liability company law. Previously, she was a partner and member of the estate planning and tax departments at Husch & Eppenberger and a partner in the St. Louis office of Gage and Tucker (now Lathrop and Gage). Earlier, she was a Professor of Law and Chairman of the Tax Department of Stetson University College of Law. She taught courses concerning income taxation of estates, trusts, corporations, partnerships and individuals, as well as estate and gift taxation and estate planning. In addition, Greenley has handled audits and appeals before the Internal Revenue Service and practiced before the U.S. Tax Court. Greenley is co-author of a multi-volume work entitled The Missouri Lawyer's Guide. She has written articles on irrevocable life insurance trusts and co-authored an article on the evaluation of business enterprises. Greenley has been a speaker at numerous educational seminars. Greenley received her Juris Doctorate degree from the University of Missouri, Columbia, and a Master of Laws degree in Taxation from Washington University in St. Louis. She is a member of the St. Louis Estate Planning Council Board and is a biographee in Who's Who in American Law and in Who's Who in America. She is also a member of our office tennis team.
