Client Results

Past performance does not guarantee future results.

Saved $20,400 in Future Taxes

Reconstructed $68,000 of missing IRA basis after discovering Form 8606 was never filed—preventing double taxation on retirement distributions.

Recovered $32,000 in Overpaid Medicare Taxes

Audited Shareworks activity and uncovered a W-2 reporting error on NQSO same-day sales—led to a corrected W-2 and full refund of excess withholdings.

Preserved $1.1M AMT Credit

Rescued a massive missed tax credit by correctly preparing IRS Form 8801 after a mid-year ISO exercise triggered AMT—just in time before the extended filing deadline.

Transparent Pricing

Transparent, Upfront Pricing

Before we begin working together, your fee will be clearly outlined and agreed upon—no surprises.

WHAT_SETS_US_APART_ICON_32x32

Why We Don't Use AUM Fees

Your portfolio size doesn't tell the whole story. Our pricing reflects:

  • The complexity of your financial life
  • The time and resources needed for strategic planning
  • The real value we deliver - not arbitrary percentages
AUM_FEES_ICON_32x32

The AUM Problem, Visualized

Portfolio Value 1% AUM Fee 1.5% AUM Fee VIP Flat Fee (Estimated)
$1,000,000 $10,000 $15,000 $8,500–$11,500
$1,500,000 $15,000 $22,500 $10,000–$13,500
$2,000,000 $20,000 $30,000 $11,500–$17,500

Advisors charging 1%–1.5% on $1.5M portfolios collect $15,000–$22,500 per year—often without doing more work. We charge flat, fair fees based on complexity—not your account balance.

FLAT_FEE_APPROACH_ICON_32x32

Our Flat-Fee Approach: Built for Your Life

We quote a fair, fixed fee-base on your needs, not just your net worth.


Example: If you're a business owner, manage multiple properties, or hold complex equity comp, your plan required more sophistication—and your fee reflects that.

Have Questions?

  • What is the cost?

    We're fee-only, which means we don't sell products for commission and don't receive any form of compensation from anyone other than you. Furthermore, we charge a flat annual fee that is NOT a percentage of the size of your investable assets.

    Exclusive Service for a flat fee:
    For Individuals & Couples, pricing typically ranges from $8,500 to $11,500 (Annually).
    For Business Owners and Entrepreneurs with Closely Held Businesses, pricing typically ranges from $10,000 to $17,500 (Annually).


    * The fee may be higher if you are a business owner, have a highly structured legal estate, own private or illiquid investments, own multiple rental properties or otherwise have a lot of complexity in your financial life. We will quote you the final fee after having an introductory call.

  • Do you offer virtual appointments?
    We work virtually. We physically operate from Atlanta and Los Angeles but we're able to provide our full suite of services virtually thanks to our use of best-in-class systems and software.
  • Are you a fiduciary?
    YES! Unlike many advisors or financial salespeople who are affiliated with banks, brokerages or insurance companies, we're regulated solely as fiduciaries. This means we're ALWAYS required to act in YOUR best interest.
  • Will you prepare & file my taxes?
    Yes! Most advisors aren't willing or able to give tax advice. This is our speciality. We incorporate careful tax minimization planning into all aspects of our services. We will also prepare and file your tax returns every year.
  • Is there a minimum for your service?
    Our service is generally the most cost-effective for those with investable assets of $1,000,000+ or $200K (Single) / $400K(MFJ) of annual Income. We're especially well-versed in clients with equity compensation and multiple flows of income.
