Achieving significant wealth rewards you with the ability to provide for future generations and support the causes closest to your heart. But frequently changing tax laws and evolving family dynamics can present significant challenges to wealth transfer planning.

As you shift your focus from acquiring to transferring wealth, chances are you’ll grapple with questions including:

How do I balance the need to provide for future generations with my desire for philanthropy?

What is the best way to structure my estate to reflect my wishes in a tax-efficient manner?

Do my beneficiaries have sufficient financial knowledge to manage their future wealth?

 

How we work with you

We strive to build multigenerational relationships with the families we advise. In doing so, we've gained valuable insight into estate issues and concerns that wealthy families encounter. By building a personal relationship with you, we can address your family's current needs and anticipate those of future generations.

DISCOVERY
Before we get down to crunching numbers, we want to get to know your “family story.” We will ask a lot of questions about what you’re really thinking, feeling, worried about; Together we’ll figure out where you are now.

PLANNING
Based on what we discuss in the discovery phase, we will assess your families’ situation, gauge where you are now relative to your life goals and priorities, and consider what gaps exist.

STRATEGIES
A benefit of holistic planning is that it provides a comprehensive view of all areas of your financial life. During this phase, we will recommend specific strategies to help match each of your goals. This is where we implement your customized plan.

MONITORING
Just when you make plans, life happens - and events large and small can change everything. The monitoring stage incorporates tracking systems to keep your plan on target. We can help you plan for the unexpected, anticipate change and adjust your plans over time, as necessary. We are committed to walking beside you through the many transitions life can bring.
