Financial Planning Process
Kevin follows a step-by-step financial planning process to help ensure that all your financial needs are met. It's an ongoing process which includes regular reviews of your situation and making any adjustments necessary to bring you closer to your objectives. Areas covered are cash flow management, education, retirement, and investment planning, risk management, and insurance, tax, and estate planning and business succession planning (for business owners).
Identify Your Goals & Priorities
The first step is to define what is most important to you in life and your financial goals; saving for college and retirement, long term care protection, reducing taxes, avoiding probate, being financially independent and staying that way, etc. These priorities serve as guideposts to map a course of action to reach your goals.
