When you first meet with us, it will happen on your terms. From the time to the location, our goal is to help you feel comfortable. At our initial meeting, we will gather information by asking questions, reviewing your financial documents and helping you identify your goals.
At our next meeting, we will present to you a uniquely designed financial plan. This plan will include recommendations for the investment of assets, budgetary considerations and retirement projections that could affect you. We will take as much time as necessary to ensure you understand your plan as well as our suggestions and strategy. We encourage you to be an integral part of this process, asking any questions or making suggestions as you see fit.We never rush this process as it is the cornerstone of your future.
Investing involves risk including the potential loss of principal. No investment strategy can guarantee a profit or protect against loss in periods of declining values nor is past performance a guarantee of future results.
