- What happens if I outlive my money?
- What strategies are available to preserve and protect my assets?
- Are there ways to leave an inheritance to my children without losing the ability to control my finances?

After taking the time to get to know you, your greatest concerns, personal goal and the hope for your children and loves ones, we will tailor a comprehensive plan to meet these unique needs and concerns.
When done properly, estate planning requires that a highly trained individual lead you through one or more in-depth meetings to uncover your hopes, fears, and expectations for yourself and for those who are most important to you. This process almost always requires the preparation of several sophisticated legal documents, but those documents themselves are not ‘estate planning.’ Planning is a process, represented by a complete strategy that is properly documented and maintained by a professional who has taken the time to get to know you, and who is committed to continuing to serve you.
