Financial Planning

We combine thorough financial planning with customized investing to help you identify and achieve your most important life goals.

Customized Planning

Our detailed planning process allows us to understand each client's personal and financial situation, objectives, comfort level with risk and time horizon for achieving goals. This understanding allows us to:

  • Create customized investment portfolios
  • Help minimize tax liabilities inside and outside of client portfolios
  • Advise clients on estate planning with the assistance of our expert partners
  • Advise on tax-efficient, impactful philanthropic strategies.
  • Review existing debt and liability structures to determine if better options can be utilized.

Advice that Serves You

The guidance that results from our planning process is based on the sole criteria of helping you meet your goals. Are you focused on retiring comfortably, selling or exiting a business or leaving a lasting legacy?. We build an appropriate, cost-efficient solution.

Seeing the Big Picture

We recognize that no client's financial life is one-dimensional. Using our deep expertise in investing, tax management, risk mitigation and other areas, we coordinate all the elements of your financial life in order to help you reach your bottom-line goals and achieve peace of mind.

Investment Management

Successful investment management starts with disciplined planning. It is the cornerstone of your financial future. We manage your assets as if they were our own. We work to achieve our clients goals in growth and income, with a focus on risk and all of the competing forces that can impact a portfolio over time. Through extensive research, tactical allocation, and focused risk management, our portfolios help clients stick with their plan and achieve their long-term goals.

Retirement Planning

Financing retirement has become increasingly complex and can cause unnecessary anxiety, especially for those who plan to access their retirement assets in the next several years. An array of investment options, combined with fluctuating interest and inflation rates and other variables, make it difficult to determine how much you will need, where you should invest, and to whom to turn for assistance.

The complex tax and legislative environment surrounding retirement planning only compounds the confusion. With qualified plans, such as IRA, pension, profit sharing, and 401(k) plans, the timing and amount of withdrawals are critical in order to avoid additional tax penalties. And if you have accumulated significant qualified plan assets, you may face additional problems.

Estate Planning

Part of living confidently in the present is knowing that your wishes will be carried out in the future. We help to create estate plans that will protect and efficiently transfer your wealth while conveying your wishes for your loved ones and your own care.

Proper estate planning allows you to transfer your wealth according to your wishes while minimizing unnecessary taxes and expenses. Our goal is to ensure you have taken prudent steps to reduce your tax liabilities and to help to create the most effective means to finance any future tax liabilities.

Philanthropic Planning

Philanthropic planning offers a strategic way for you to connect to causes that you and your family feel passionate about. We offer creative solutions to accomplish your philanthropic goals without interrupting your family's financial plan and stability.

Gifting

An important component to any estate plan is gifting, which allows you to reduce the size of your taxable estate by strategically transferring the wealth. Gifting enables you to take advantage of the substantial tax advantages available through lifetime gifts. Thoughtful use of these gifts through the use of planning vehicles such as trusts and life insurance can help maximize the value created for future generations.

We work with all of your professionals to help you with...

  • Wills
  • Trusts and Trust accounts
  • Power of attorney
  • Account beneficiaries
  • Beneficiary accounts
