PROFESSIONAL PARTNERSHIPS

A Team Approach

We believe that a coordinated effort among our clients’ accounting and legal advisors ensures that plans are professionally orchestrated, integrated and implemented. In the process of working with us, you will soon learn that developing strategic partnerships with other professionals is a key part of our philosophy and we go out of our way to refer qualified clients to our strategic partners when appropriate.

We facilitate this team approach through our LifePrint™ planning process which enables the advisory team to provide input and have access to the client’s comprehensive financial plan and related documents.

An Independent Technical Resource

Our strategic partnerships with other advisors may also involve serving as an independent and confidential resource to address your clients’ financial planning needs. Services can be provided behind the scenes through your firm or via direct client interface – on a case-by-case basis. Simply put, our goal is to add to your credibility – through technical intelligence and comprehensive resources – delivered objectively, promptly and thoroughly.
