Frequently Asked Questions

Hands holding question marks

WHO IS YOUR TYPICAL CLIENT?

My typical client is usually 50 + years old with investable assets of at least $250,000 who wants advice and guidance but is willing to delegate important decisions to a financial professional they trust.

​

WHO WOULD NOT BE THE RIGHT FIT?

My services are not ideal for people who simply want someone to validate all their own decisions.

​

WHAT SERVICES DO YOU PROVIDE

My services are built around a wide-ranging suite of planning specialties: financial, retirement, tax, estate, and business succession and/or exit. Once a plan is crafted, presented, and agreed upon with specific goals included, a unique investment management strategy is designed to pursue those goals.

 

DO YOU PROVIDE TAX ADVICE

No. However, although I don’t not provide tax advice, I do help plan for a tax-efficient investment allocation and transfer of wealth. When a situation requires a more advanced tax or legal strategy, I will engage my extensive network of tax and legal professionals or will integrate your preferred professionals into our relationship.

 

ARE YOU A FIDUCIARY

Yes, and as such, I will put your interests first, always act with prudence in our dealings, I will not mislead you and I will disclose, manage, and do my best to avoid all conflicts of interest, financial and otherwise.

 

​DO I HAVE TO PAY FOR AN INTRODUCTORY MEETING?

No, there is never a charge for an initial consultation.

 

HOW DO YOU GET PAID?

I am compensated primarily by financial planning and investment management fees, all of which will be discussed in detail BEFORE implementation.

 

DO I HAVE TO LIVE IN OHIO TO WORK WITH YOU?

No. I currently work with clients in multiple states. I can also register in your state of full-time residence if I am not currently registered in that state.

​

AM I REQUIRED TO MEET WITH YOU IN PERSON?

No. Although there is value in face-to-face interaction to build trust, in-person meetings are not required. We have all the technology necessary to communicate as effectively in a virtual setting as we would in-person.
