Specialties
Comprehensive financial advice means that we analyze and integrate the many areas of our clients’ financial lives including tax, insurance, investment, retirement, and estate planning. Not only do we design and suggest strategies, but we also help implement and monitor them for maximum effect.
Our advisors are credentialed and experienced in financial services and maintain their knowledge with rigorous continuing education. Each advisor has consciously chosen this profession because of the satisfaction gained through building client relationships and achieving positive results.
We feel that a collaborative approach yields the best results. In doing so, we spend time learning about our clients’ views and desires, as well as educating them about the options available. After meeting with a potential client, we design a six-month plan with an all inclusive retainer fee. The retainer fee includes all necessary appointments, phone calls, and emails throughout the term.
