  • Insurance
    Risk management is an important part of evaluating your financial stability.  We offer advice and policies to help protect you in the event of a premature death, disability or need for long term care.  If your estate is subject to significant estate taxes (if your estate exceeds $11.4 million per individual or $22.8 million for a couple in 2019), we can show you might be able to pay for that tax liability with insurance and keep the proceeds out of your estate.
  • Getting married
    Have you thought about how to successfully merge your marital finances? There are many different options and financial styles to consider: Are you a spender or a saver? Who pays the bills? Will you have joint or separate checking accounts, or a combination? Does one of you invest more aggressively than the other? We can help you sort out these issues and plan for financial clarity in your marriage.
