Working Together
Our Approach
There is nothing more important to us than understanding what is important to you. Our established process begins by discovering your current financial situation and identifies your needs and wants – both now and in the future. This gives us the foundation to build personalized strategies and the specific actions needed to move you closer to your goals.
We believe in using professionally managed investments to build your portfolio that balances your need, ability and willingness to take risk. We don’t want you to take more risk than you need, but some risk is often necessary to build your wealth over time. We also take a long-term approach to investing because volatility is greater over short time periods. Part of our role is to help clients stick to their long-term plan even during market volatility – because it’s the path we’ve planned together.
Even with a long-term plan, we continually monitor your investments and changes that come up as life progresses. We partner with you and your family throughout your life, revisiting your goals, risk tolerance, and the strategies in place, to keep you on track toward your goals.
Comprehensive Planning
Once we implement your personalized strategies, we continually monitor and adjust as life changes – whether that’s a new job, inheritance, change in marital status, selling a business or surprise early retirement. We know that there’s more to your financial life than just investments – so we provide comprehensive wealth management, helping you with:
- Retirement Income Planning
- Tax-Minimization Strategies
- Estate Planning Considerations
- Evaluating Insurance Needs
- Charitable Giving Plans
- Saving for College Education
