HOW DOES IT WORK FOR YOU?

Our primary role is to act as a financial advisor to you in developing a financial plan that encompasses your goals and constraints, the economic environment, current tax laws, and realistic investment expectations. We expect to know your finances and advise you on everything from managing a household budget to the most complex business, tax and investment strategies.

The first step is a preliminary meeting to discuss your goals, needs and explain our services. This initial consultation is provided free of charge. At the end of the first meeting, we will advise you as to whether we can provide a service to you or not.

The second step is to provide a proposal under which we can sign a contract and perform a service. This can range from a retirement plan only to a full comprehensive financial plan. Some of our clients prefer to have one segment of the planning completed before they commit to the full plan.
 
 
The third step is to perform analysis and review feasible choices. We will review your options in each area and weigh with you the relative pros and cons of each choice.

The fourth step is to present and review written recommendations on what needs to be accomplished and how to do it. In some cases, you can perform the tasks yourself and in others your attorney, your CPA, or some other advisor will be required.

The fifth step is implementation and follow-up. We will work with you and your advisors to implement your plan and help you track your progress toward long-term financial goals. We continue to assist our clients over time by providing updates to changing goals, needs and economic conditions. Financial planning is an on-going process and we hope to work with you in meeting your goals over the long term.
