Your future starts here
Our approach to working with clients starts with financial planning. Specifically, you can expect to experience the following approach when working with us:
Getting to know you
Are we the right advisor for you? And are you the right client for us? Our initial conversations will focus on who you are as a person and what you are trying to accomplish. We look for people who are open and honest about their situation. Who truly want help changing the path they are on or want to make sure they are doing everything they can do to accomplish their goals. We will talk about what obstacles you fear might be standing in your way and keeping you up at night.
Creating your plan
We take full advantage of Will being a CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER to develop a financial plan with tangible recommendations for helping achieve what’s most important to you and your family. We focus first on immediate goals but always keep longer-term objectives in mind. Your plan will give you an idea of where you stand compared to what you hope to achieve someday.
Investing your assets
Your plan includes a customized asset allocation for each of the goals you prioritized. Our due diligence in this area is exhaustive as we seek managers capable of providing superior returns without what we believe to be excessive risk. As your life and goals change, we will adjust your allocation appropriately.
Developing strategies beyond your financial plan
Investments are only one aspect of your plan. Depending on the needs it uncovers, we may work with attorneys, accountants and other professionals in such disciplines as trusts, lending and insurance to address such issues as planning your estate, restructuring debt and protecting your family from unforeseen circumstances.
