Tax Planning

A key component of any successful retirement plan is the strategic positioning of your assets. When you choose to partner with us, we’ll determine which assets are going to be taxed now, which will be taxed later and which will be taxed never*. Once we’ve identified these allocations, we can help you find ways to move forward in building and maintaining your wealth in a way that minimizes your tax burden. Our team will work together to uncover opportunities and present you with solutions based on your individual and family needs while helping you keep more of your money.

* Based on current tax laws

Business Planning
As an entrepreneur or business owner, we appreciate that you embrace the experiences and responsibilities that come with owning your own business. More importantly, we understand that business owners face unique circumstances and challenges when it comes to planning for the future. We’ll work with you to maximize the financial and tax benefits available for you, your family and your business. We can also help you take a look at the big picture and ensure that both your personal and business financial affairs are aligned, ensuring that you’re on the road to achieving your goals.

Legacy Planning
Like many clients, you may not only want to prepare for retirement, but also create a plan to ensure your loved ones are protected long after you pass. If you’re looking to leave a legacy to your children, grandchildren or a charity of choice, we can help make it happen. After completing a comprehensive needs analysis to determine your goals and values, we’ll present strategies that make sense for your unique situation. Then, we’ll develop a plan that takes into account current estate planning and gifting laws to maximize your legacy – while minimizing the tax burden you leave those who matter most.
