About Us

Ronald K. Law, MD

Biography

 

Dr. Ron K. Law is the founder of the Family Building Institute. Working with financial institutions to maximize the power of family as a speaker and facilitator, Dr. Law believes that family wealth is 50% financial and 50% non-material. To enable the development of both types of wealth, he has identified an important stage of life that lies between parenting and grand parenting. In his post-parenting program, coined Family Building®, Dr. Law proposes that this phase of life offers the perfect opportunity for a series of “Meaningful Conversations” to take place between the generations. His compelling program offers a way to preserve the unique identity and power of any family.

 

Ronald K. Law, M.D., attended the University of Pennsylvania where he earned his Bachelor of Arts (1971) and Doctor of Medicine (1975). Ron has practiced interventional and consultative cardiology in Denver since 1980. He is the President of Cardiovascular Associates, PC, a large metro Denver cardiovascular practice.

 

Aside from his medical practice, Ron and his three brothers, Dennis, Chris and Jeremy (also medical doctors), own and manage a consumer products business that has a positive effect on the environment. Diogen and Holiday Creations offer LED lighting products to mass merchants in the US and Canada. According to a Canadian utility company, the impact of the number of products sold by the companies in Canada is equivalent to taking 200,000 cars off the road.

 

The Law brothers also own and operate a real estate investment and development company in Denver, Colorado. Global Pacific Properties Inc. owns and manages properties in downtown Denver, North Denver, Cherry Creek, Denver Tech Center, Highlands and Inverness Office Park.

 

Dr. Law and his brothers are producers of Warriors of Virtue, a $35M action adventure shot in three countries (US, Canada and China) and released to 2300 screens by MGM in the US and 13 countries in 1997. After initial release, Warriors of Virtue sold 1.2M copies in video format and is still on the Blockbuster® top 100 kids’ movies. In addition, Dr. Law and his writing partner, Jan Juknievich (hydrologist, engineer, human encyclopedia), have written four screenplays and one stage play.

 

Ron and his wife, Susan, reside in a Denver suburb. They have three grown children: Michael, Kristen and David. Ron, Susan, their parents and siblings utilize his Family Building® Meaningful Conversations to strengthen their relationships with their children and to assure that family wealth (material and non-material) is transitioned and secured through present and future generations. Ron’s passion is to share his insights and experience about the Family Building® phenomenon with others.
