We have two separate service arrangements. 

The first method is an advisory arrangement, where we charge one transparent fee, which includes the management of all your investment accounts held with us, ongoing retirement, and your vision financial planning. We also offer many other benefits and guidance regarding other financial aspects of your life that we do not directly manage. Have questions about your 401(k)? We have advice on that. For questions about estate planning, we can offer clarity.

The second method is a flat dollar structure, where we help with various Planning or Investment Consulting service areas. Our Planning services include Financial, Tax, Insurance, Education, Retirement, Estate, and Business Planning. Our Investment Consulting services include creating an investment profile, a portfolio holdings review, asset allocation review, investment strategy recommendations, security, and investment manager research of asset classes and sub-class analysis, sector, style, and historic performance review. 

There are investment products with additional fees, such as 529 College savings plans & Life Insurance Products, which will be evaluated when determining the right solution for you.
