Comprehensive Financial Planning

At Legacy One, we feel it is crucial that we learn about and understand all aspects of our clients financial picture. While it is not required that you share every detail, it is helpful for us to gain a better understanding of who you are and where you want to be. We will walk through a detailed map of your current plan and show you what will be required to get to your desired destination. This requires cooperation from you, in sharing the details of your life and or your goals for success for making your dreams a reality. The investments we choose for your plan are just one small piece of the puzzle. Your investment strategy should also take into account and complement your tax strategies, retirement income plan, legacy and charitable giving, longevity risk and education planning, should you have that need. By working with you on a holistic and comprehensive map, we ensure that all of your individual strategies work together to complement your plan. We use, and provide you with self-driven tools to access and monitor your stated goals.

Legacy and Estate Planning

Many of us share in the desire to build something that will last beyond our own lifetimes…to leave something to our families and organizations we care about after we have passed. How you manage your assets now, will greatly impact what you will be able to leave behind to your heirs. Legacy One will work closely with your legal and tax advisors to help you successfully navigate complicated estate and tax laws and to develop a plan to reach your desired outcome for your hard-earned wealth. Together, we’ll work to help you preserve the wealth you intend to leave behind, which will add tremendous value to the lives of your family, friends and any organizations you may support, long after you are gone.

This can often be a complicated decision, depending on the scope of your family situation or breadth of charities you support. Having the right team in place to map out your plan is critical to a successful distribution of your assets.

Investment Portfolio and Asset Management

Where do you want to be financially and what are the right investment options to put you on the growth path to get there? These are different for everyone! We know that each individual has unique goals, a different tolerance for risk, and specific timelines for getting to their financial destination. This means each investment plan we set up must be different, and it’s our job to know you as our client to advise on proper investments. While we make recommendations based on your risk and ongoing research, you ultimately make the decisions as to how you invest. We execute the plan based on your wishes. We will monitor your investments and make adjustment recommendations when we need to, to help keep your growth plan on track. It is our wish that we meet with you at least once per year to discuss your investments and performance.

Risk Management

We want to know how comfortable you are with volatility and will ask you this every time we meet. How comfortable are you with the value of your portfolio going up or down? This is a big question in determining how we help you position your portfolio. As your life stages change, your tolerance for risk may change with it. We want to know that.
