Get StartedThe Process: What To Expect
The first meeting with your Financial Professional is designed to be thorough, realistic, and transparent. We need to discover together the pieces of your unique financial puzzle. Everyone has their own picture to create, and it's helpful to spread this process across several meetings. Like building a real puzzle, first we create the outline and edges, then start to fill in the middle pieces, and finally present solid recommendations designed to reach your desired outcomes.
