About Wealth Management Solutions, LLC |
| If you are an entrepreneur with a business or are thinking about selling your business, a corporate executive with complex company benefits, a divorcee figuring out your finances, or just looking to retire soon, then my experience will be of benefit to you. Each type of client I work with has a unique set of circumstances and needs, but the common thread is a piece of mind you will get from having a professional manage your assets, provide financial planning expertise and ultimately maximize your wealth. Wealth Management is a combination Investment Management + Financial Planning. I will help you maximize your wealth by managing your investments, income tax planning, estate and gift planning, maximizing your company benefits (401(k), restricted stock, stock options, deferred compensation plans), and when income is needed turning your investments into a reliable income stream. To provide you with a consistent, high-quality level of service, we maintain only a select number of client relationships, and get to know your situation inside and out. This allows us to provide you with timely, personal advice. You can be confident in the advice we give, as we will happily put it in writing. As a client, you will receive detailed follow up emails after our meetings so we can ensure there is no question as to what we are recommending, and why. |

Compensation and Fees |
|
|
|
|
| Additional Details on Charges: |
We work on a fee-only basis which means we can only be compensated by our clients - we do not receive financial incentives from any third party such as brokerage firms, investment companies, or insurance companies.
This is our only method of compensation and it is the same way you compensate other professionals you depend on for specialized knowledge and services, for example your doctor, CPA or attorney. Paying your advisor directly eliminates several potential conflicts of interest because our advice is not impacted by the interests of third parties.
