Honesty by Design
A Fiduciary (and More):
- • We act in your best interest
- • We endeavor to give advice that is free from conflicts of interest
- • We provide transparency about our fees
- • We tier our fees downward early – view fee schedule
We do not:
- • Sell any financial products
- • Earn commissions
- • Receive any payments from product providers
- • Earn revenue from trading or other account activity
The only revenue we earn for advisory services is the management fee our clients pay us.
Investments are a big piece,
but they’re only a piece.
How do we charge for our services?
Our annual advisory fee is charged as a percent of the assets that we manage. The fee is calculated and deducted from your portfolio quarterly. We always bill in arrears—no fees are charged in advance. Generally, the greater the value of your portfolio the lower the incremental percent of the fee.

We build in-depth relationships with our clients by offering experienced guidance within the setting of a smaller, more personalized firm.
