Services

The full advisory practice, in one relationship.

Six service verticals that share a common thread: independent advice, transparent fees, and a single advisor who knows your situation in detail.

01 — Core Practice

Wealth Strategy & Investment Advisory

An investment program is more than a portfolio. It begins with what the money is for — and works backward into asset allocation, account structure, and the quiet discipline of staying the course.

Recommendations are tailored to time horizon, liquidity needs, and tax situation. Implementation uses low-cost institutional vehicles where appropriate, and active management only where it earns its keep.

  • Goal-based asset allocation modeled to your real cash flows
  • Tax-aware account location and rebalancing
  • Manager and fund due diligence, refreshed annually
  • Quarterly written review with plain-English commentary
  • Concentrated stock and equity-comp coordination
  • Asset Allocation
  • Rebalancing
  • Tax-Loss Harvesting
  • Manager Selection
  • Concentrated Positions
02 — Decumulation

Retirement Planning

Accumulating is the easy half. Drawing down — across taxable, tax-deferred, and Roth accounts, while managing Social Security, Medicare, and required minimum distributions — is where outcomes are quietly made or unmade.

The plan models real spending, real inflation, and real longevity, with stress tests for the scenarios that matter: an early bear market, a long-term care event, the loss of a spouse.

  • Withdrawal sequencing across account types
  • Social Security claiming-strategy analysis
  • Roth conversion modeling — year by year
  • Healthcare and Medicare-bridge planning
  • Sustainable spending stress-tested against history
03 — Tax Strategy

Tax Planning & Coordination

Tax outcomes are decided long before April. Planning runs alongside investment and retirement decisions year-round, in coordination with your CPA — not as an afterthought.

Engagements include a written tax projection, multi-year scenario modeling, and a clear schedule of action items so nothing slips between advisors.

  • Multi-year tax projections and bracket management
  • Loss harvesting and gain budgeting
  • Charitable giving — DAFs, QCDs, and bunching strategies
  • Equity compensation timing — RSUs, ISOs, NSOs, ESPP
  • Direct coordination with your CPA
04 — Legacy

Estate & Legacy Planning

An estate plan is more than a will. It's a coordinated set of decisions about ownership, beneficiary designations, gifting, and trust structures — most of which sit outside your attorney's drafting work.

We work alongside your estate counsel to ensure the financial side of the plan actually reflects what the documents say, including titling, beneficiary updates, and funding of trusts.

  • Beneficiary and titling audit across every account
  • Trust funding coordination with counsel
  • Annual gifting and lifetime exemption modeling
  • Charitable structures — CRTs, CLTs, donor-advised funds
  • Family meeting facilitation when desired
05 — Owner Advisory

Business & Executive Advisory

For owners and executives, personal and business finance can't be cleanly separated. Compensation design, retirement plan strategy, and exit readiness deserve the same rigor as the operating side of the business.

Engagements are tailored to where the company sits — pre-revenue, scaling, or preparing for a transaction.

  • Owner compensation and retirement plan design
  • Cash-flow and liquidity planning across personal and business
  • Pre-transaction readiness and net-proceeds modeling
  • Succession planning, including family transitions
  • Executive compensation review — equity, deferred, perks
06 — Protection

Risk & Insurance Review

Insurance is most valuable where it's least exciting. Independent review focuses on the catastrophic risks — disability, premature death with dependents, long-term care, and excess liability — and how your existing coverage actually responds.

We don't sell policies. We review the ones you have, identify gaps and overlaps, and refer to specialists where appropriate.

  • Life, disability, and umbrella adequacy review
  • Long-term-care strategy options
  • Property and liability coverage audit
  • Policy replacement analysis when worthwhile
  • Specialist referrals — fee-only or commission, transparently
How We Engage

Three ways to work together.

Engagement structure is matched to your situation. Most clients begin with a project, then transition to ongoing advisory.

Discovery Call

A complimentary 45-minute conversation to understand your situation and decide whether a deeper engagement makes sense.

No charge · No commitment

Project Engagement

A defined-scope review and written plan. Useful for a one-time decision: a retirement transition, a sale, an inheritance.

Flat fee · Defined deliverables

Ongoing Advisory

A continuing relationship with quarterly review, year-round tax coordination, and a single advisor for as long as it serves you.

Annual retainer or AUM-based
