Do You Have The Right Insurance Portfolio?

Insurance Is Often Sold, But Rarely Bought.

Insurance portfolio planning, from a fee-only advisor, helps you answer real questions, like:

  • I have an annuity or cash value life insurance and am concerned it might not be right for me – what questions should I be asking?
  • Will my spouse or children have financial trouble if I unexpectedly pass away?
  • Which type of life insurance is best for me?
  • Would the loss of my income due to a disability cause financial hardship? Do I need disability insurance?
  • Are my employer-sponsored insurance benefits adequate for my personal needs?
  • How would a long term care event financially affect my spouse and heirs?

We’ll evaluate your entire insurance portfolio, including both individual and employer plans, to make sure you and your family are covered – with the right type and amount of insurance.

Know Exactly What You Pay Your Financial Advisor—And Why.

When determining your insurance needs and selecting plans, it’s important that you receive objective advice that’s truly in your best interest.

Unlike other advisors who mask their fees with seemingly marginal percentages, or make commission from the sale of products, we operate from a core belief: our primary focus is to enhance your wealth, not ours.

That’s true fiduciary responsibility.
