Business Solutions
WORKING CLOSELY with your legal and tax advisers, we can help you reach your business and estate planning goals with solutions that will maximize your personal benefits, provide the tools to recruit and retain employees, protect against the loss of key employees, and create ownership succession strategies. These solutions can help build your business and transfer wealth to future generations. Once your customized plan is in place, we continue to support you by conducting annual reviews to ensure that the plan is on track.

your business, including:

Educational Services – We can conduct seminars for your employees on their retirement packages. And as a value-added service, we offer educational seminars on a variety of financial topics.
Key Person Insurance – The loss of a key employee, due to death, disability or serious illness, can create serious problems for a business. We can help you protect against this loss.
Business Succession Planning – Our succession strategies can be catered to your wealth transfer objectives. We can provide life insurance funding for a Buy-Sell Agreement to provide for the orderly disposition of a closely held business if an owner dies, becomes disabled, or sells. For family business owners, we identify alternative strategies to equalize assets among all children — whether they’re active or not in the family business.

At our firm, we specialize in providing you with comprehensive estate and tax planning strategies to help you deal with the unique challenges of being a business owner and high net worth individual. We have aligned ourselves with a variety of specialized professionals, including estate and trust attorneys, CPAs, and business valuation experts to make your business and estate plan a seamless integration.
