From Lighthouse Point and Coral Ridge to Boca Raton and Deerfield Beach, we tailor every detail to your South Florida lifestyle.
Our White-Glove, High-Touch Approach
Discovery that starts with your story
We listen first—family dynamics, values, charitable interests, decision-makers, and what “a successful legacy” means to you.
Design & coordination with your full team
We align accounts, beneficiary designations, titling, and proposed trust/estate structures in collaboration with your attorney and CPA.
Implementation support without the headaches
We prepare custodian change lists, help complete forms, and keep everyone on the same page.
Stewardship with proactive communication
You choose your cadence and channel—phone, video, or in-person at our Pompano Beach office. We provide concise recaps and decision logs after each touchpoint.
WORKING TOGETHER
Strategies We Coordinate (with your attorney and CPA)
- Wills and trusts aligned to intent and simplicity
- Multigenerational wealth transfer and gifting approaches
- Business succession: roles, timelines, buy-sell funding considerations
- Charitable giving options (e.g., donor-advised fund)
- Florida real-estate titling and entity considerations
- Insurance-based liquidity for estate expenses or inheritance equalization
- Beneficiary planning for qualified accounts and inherited IRA rules awareness
Who This Is Right For
Designed for South Florida, our planning speaks to the realities families face here. We balance Florida’s no-state-income-tax advantages with federal rules, navigate homestead and titling for primary vs. second homes, coordinate seasonal residency and out-of-state property for snowbirds, and prepare for hurricane season with secure record access and emergency liquidity. We also account for portfolios that include Intracoastal/waterfront real estate and closely held businesses. It’s especially valuable for:
- Retirees and pre-retirees with property across Broward and Palm Beach counties
- Families seeking clarity for heirs and charitable impact
- Business owners preparing for a transition
- High-net-worth households wanting coordinated guidance across multiple advisors
How This Connects to Your Broader Plan
In Sync with Tax & Estate Planning
We align beneficiaries, titling, and tax-aware transfer strategies so what you intend is clear and efficient. We coordinate with your attorney and CPA, and revisit the plan after life events to keep everything current.
Liquidity & Care, Planned with Insurance
Life and long-term care coverage can provide timely funds for expenses or equalize inheritances—so heirs aren’t forced to sell key assets. We right-size coverage and structure ownership/beneficiaries to fit your goals.
Investments Aligned to Your Legacy
Education is one of the greatest gifts you can give. Whether you’re starting a 529 plan for a newborn in Deerfield Beach or funding a grandchild’s education in Boca Raton, we’ll help you choose the right savings strategy for your family and budget
Questions & Answers
Do I need legacy planning if Florida has no state estate tax?
Yes—federal rules, income taxes on certain assets, and probate can still impact heirs; a coordinated plan reduces avoidable costs and confusion.
What’s the difference between estate planning and wealth & legacy planning?
Estate planning sets legal documents; wealth & legacy planning integrates those documents with investments, insurance, taxes, and family goals—then keeps it all current.
Can beneficiary designations override my will?
Often, yes. Designations on retirement and some brokerage accounts typically control those assets, so we review them regularly.
How does life insurance fit into legacy planning?
It can provide liquidity for taxes/expenses or help equalize inheritances so important assets don’t need to be sold quickly.
We own property in multiple states—any special steps?
Titling and trust use (via your attorney) can simplify transfers and reduce multi-state probate exposure; we coordinate the financial side.
When should we involve adult children?
After your outline is set, a facilitated family meeting can reduce surprises and clarify roles and responsibilities.
