Services & Fees
SERVICES
I help families build a FAMILY LEGACY that will endure across multiple generations. Like an architect, I spend the time necessary to truly understand your unique faith, family dynamics and finances in order to draft your custom designed legacy plans. With the plans in place, I then provide ongoing guidance for your team of advisors who will execute your legacy plans. We provide three primary integrated services: Wealth Management, Family Governance & Philanthropic Planning.
-
Integrated Wealth Management lives at the intersection of Financial and Family in the venn diagram above. I serve as the families CFO who oversees the management of their total balance sheet in light of the family legacy plan. We must protect (risk management), grow (investment management), operate (cash & liquidity management) and distribute (tax & estate planning) significant wealth to the next generation in a way that strengthens, not weakens, the family legacy.
-
Integrated Family Governance lives at the intersection of Family and Faith in the venn diagram above. I help the family articulate their families shared vision, values, and purpose and put healthy decision-making systems and processes in place which also help families communicate and collaborate across multiple generations. I help them plan and facilitate productive, enjoyable family meetings so that each generation feels confident, informed, and empowered.
-
Integrated Philanthropic Planning lives at the intersection of Faith and Finances in the venn diagram above. Philanthropy is a very important part of an enduring family legacy. I help families use philanthropy to engage more deeply with causes, organizations, and initiatives they care about and to connect more deeply with each other to pass down their faith values. Giving becomes more meaningful, purposeful, and impactful with a giving strategy that identifies organizations and causes that align with your family’s vision and values.
FEES
I charge a straightforward, transparent retainer fee that is commensurate with the level of service I’m providing each family. I also charge a separate Assets Under Management (AUM) fee for clients who request I directly manage their investment portfolios. The AUM fee is adjusted for the retainer fees being paid. Please contact me regarding specific rates for your specific needs.
