Schwartz Financial

Introduction: Our goal is to help clients! We provide a full complement of wealth preservation, asset protection, investment advisory, and tax planning services. When we form a relationship, we will have a series of meetings in order to understand your situation, needs, goals, feelings and family dynamics. Then, we will develop a customized and comprehensive set of wealth and tax planning strategies specific to those needs and goals. We then work with “your” advisors to coordinate these strategies, or we can refer you to advisors as needed. These advisors may include: Estate planning attorneys or CPAs. Our approach is all-encompassing and includes: Tax planning - As our office has been preparing tax returns for 20+ years, we believe we are qualified to make recommendations based on your prior tax returns, resulting in potential savings opportunities. Retirement planning - Our office will review your retirement plans both at work and individual retirement plans. Through the use of our online wealth management platform, we integrate these plans so that you may see, and our office can make sure these investments are properly allocated within your risk tolerance. Assess your current retirement plan - If you are a business owner, we will review your current retirement plan, and if worthwhile, suggest alternative strategies, striving to increase your tax savings and preserve your company’s income. Wealth preservation - Consider and present strategies for potentially increasing and preserving your wealth.
