Retirement Planning
One of the most important sets of decisions you will make involves preparing for retirement. It’s never too early to start thinking about retirement, and careful planning can make all the difference when it comes to ensuring that you can enjoy this next phase of life, confident that you have the income and long-term resources you will need. We can help you:
- Understand qualified plans and investment vehicles
- Decide which options make sense for you
- Evaluate your current retirement plan, including your existing savings and choices of employee-sponsored pension or retirement accounts
- Structure your investments to meet your long-range goals, time horizon and tolerance for risk
- Plan for additional savings by setting up regular contributions to an IRA or other qualified or non-qualified savings plans.
As retirement draws near, we can work with you to:
- Design the optimal strategy for converting your savings into retirement income, while ensuring that you don’t outlive your resources
- Consolidate your retirement savings and simplify your distributions by rolling over your 401(k) or pension assets into either a traditional or Roth IRA
- Structure and invest your retirement assets in a way that best protects your hard-earned savings from taxes and short-term market volatility

Unlike many firms, we focus on achieving the optimal total financial outcome – financial maximization and tax minimization. As tax planning specialists, we help you pay no more tax than the law requires. We monitor changes in tax law that could affect you, then we recommend – and help you implement – proven tax-savings strategies. We are planning your tax return a year before it is due – so there are no surprises, you know exactly where you stand, and course corrections can be made.
