THE SIGNATURE PROCESS

The Signature Financial Planning process, fine-tuned over the past 30 years, includes best practices and the most effective strategies for long-term financial success.

As an employee-owned firm, we understand how business gets done. We work with business owners to help enhance the value of their companies for generations to come. We can evaluate and assess employee benefit and retirement plans, key person insurance, business succession planning and other components of your business plan. We also work with other professional advisors to ensure that all aspects of a client’s business are being addressed and create an integrated approach with their legal, tax and financial team members for the benefit of the firm.

We help our individual clients envision and quantify their personal goals for lifelong financial security and then construct a customized approach to achieve them. Our financial planning services include cash management, debt management, education funding, investment management, insurance coverage, estate planning and tax management. We strive to keep clients well informed throughout the year with time sensitive emails, quarterly newsletters, and in-person annual client review meetings. We also understand that life can throw curve balls, so we offer additional meetings as needed every day the market is open via e-mail, phone, or video conferencing.
