Success Story

From Estate Chaos to Clarity

A retired business owner in Roanoke had multiple trusts, outdated wills, and assets titled inconsistently across entities.
We coordinated with her CPA and estate attorney to consolidate structures, update beneficiary designations, and add a charitable foundation component.
The result, a simplified, tax-efficient estate plan that protected privacy, ensured charitable giving continuity, and created clarity for heirs.

FAQs

Frequently Asked Questions

Why do I need a financial advisor?

Money decisions are complicated, and small mistakes can cost big. I simplify your options, help you avoid costly errors, and build a clear plan for your future.

What’s the difference between financial planning and investing?

Investing is one part of the picture. Financial planning covers the whole picture—retirement, taxes, insurance, estate planning, and how it all works together.

Do I really need to save for retirement if I have a 401(k)?

Yes. A 401(k) is a great start, but it’s just one tool. I’ll help you maximize it and build a retirement income plan that lasts.

Is now a good time to invest?

Yes—if you invest with a plan. We match your timeline and risk level, then put cash to work in stages so you don’t rely on perfect timing.

What’s a “good” annual return?

A good return is the one that gets you to your goals with risk you can live with. We set expectations by plan, not headlines.

What should I do with an old 401(k)?

You can leave it, roll to your new plan, or roll to an IRA. I compare fees, fund choices, and protections, then execute the rollover for you.

What are my fiduciary responsibilities as a plan sponsor?

As fiduciary, you must act prudently, document decisions, monitor investments, and ensure fees are reasonable. I provide 3(21) or 3(38) fiduciary support, policies, and a documented process to reduce liability.

How do I reduce liability for myself and the company?

Shift investment selection to a 3(38) fiduciary, adopt an IPS, run quarterly reviews, and maintain a fiduciary file. My role is to build and maintain that defense file for you.

How do we integrate financial wellness into our retirement program?

We add budgeting, debt payoff, and household planning tools. I align wellness programs with retirement readiness metrics so benefits show measurable ROI.
