It's our job to listen, to understand the complexities of your situation,  discover what's important to you, and evaluate your situation objectively.  After doing that, we'll build a plan tailored to achieve your goals and considering your values.  There are many planning topics we can help you address, including some of life's more difficult situations such as:  life after grief or unexpected changes; dealing with healthcare catastrophes, sorting out complex estate situations,  keeping more of your money (away from the IRS),  protecting yourself and loved ones,  and managing market risks to name a few.    VIEW FINANCIAL PLANNING OPTIONS

From broad, personal questions to very refined financial inquiries - I invite you to ask me anything at a flat hourly rate. This one to two-hour meeting will review your most pressing questions one by one. The result? We'll provide you with as much financial guidance as possible to lead you in the right direction.    SET AN APPOINTMENT
