  Your Time Is Valuable

We specialize in working with physicians that know their time is valuable and want to work with a professional that understands the intricacies of their situation. Let us examine your financial plan to make sure you’re making sound decisions today and in the future.

  Unlike Any Other Financial Firm

Chances are, you’ve never seen a financial firm like ours. Our Family Office offers far more services and goes into much more detail than financial advisors. We provide many services to our families, including estate planning, asset protection, tax mitigation, and charitable giving strategies. We work with a select few affluent families and become their Personal CFO.

Derrick explained to me that he takes all the information that he requests and spends a lot of time looking it over. He then came back to me with recommendations to reduce my expenses and my taxes. Nobody has ever taken the time to review my situation like that before.
