Estate Planning
Your legacy transcends money—it also encompasses your values. A plan is an important part of your ongoing financial goals. Trust and Estate Planning is an integral part of our Three-Phase financial planning process, which analyzes all areas of your financial goals. We begin by understanding your personal and financial circumstances, and by helping you identify and select your goals. After we analyze your current course of action, we suggest alternative courses, develop, present, and implement our recommendations, and follow through with ongoing monitoring and updating of your account assets.
