We believe that a desire to address the needs of your family is at the heart of why people have financial goals. As a family-oriented practice, we strive to be the only financial advisors you and subsequent generations may need. A common thread among clients is the need to preserve the capital they’ve accumulated to pursue their future lifestyle in the way they envisioned; assist with the needs of the next generation; and help support their chosen philanthropic efforts.
Jeff, Susan and Troy work cohesively together to offer a meaningful presence when it’s most needed. Their professional capabilities, emotional support and thoughtful strategies are available to help you navigate key milestones that can occur in your life, business or career, including:

- Receiving an inheritance, or taking control of a substantial 401(k) or IRA
- Financing an education or second home
- A decision to retire, change career or other life transistion.
- The need to establish a retirement plan for your business

Our team approach can help reduce anxiety, while offering you a clear focus for the future.
