Social Security

Social Security can be a confusing program to understand. As you approach retirement, many questions arise about Social Security. Not only do we understand the complexities of Social Security, but we also have the resources to address your questions and provide insights on maximizing your benefits based on your unique financial situation.

Estate Planning

Many individuals, couples, and families don’t just want to make their assets last for their lifetimes; they want to leave a legacy or explore philanthropic goals. Unfortunately, the financial side of estate planning is often overlooked and can have a significant impact on your family. Our team can assist you in articulating estate planning needs and coordinating with attorneys and CPAs, who are vital to the estate planning process.

Tax Planning

Taxes are a fact of life, but having a smart, tax-efficient strategy can help you keep more of your own money. As retirement nears, often times, you will have complex tax questions unique to your financial situation and lifestyle, as you begin living off of your assets instead of earned income. Our experience and understanding of the tax system positions us to provide smart tax efficient strategies to give you peace of mind.

Insurance

As you age, your need for insurance may change. But just how much insurance will you need? How long will you need it? Will your needs change over time? Whether life insurance, long-term care insurance, or annuities, Pinnacle Financial Advisors can help you choose insurance to protect your family and assets.

Emergency Planning

Unexpected expenses always crop up at the most inopportune times. Whether it’s needing a new car, replacing an air conditioner, or handling a medical emergency, we can help you plan for them now. For many people, paying for high-cost expenses means withdrawing large sums of money, which will drive up their tax rate. Our team’s breadth of knowledge in financial planning and tax efficiency strategies can help you pay for your expenses in a way that maximizes your resources.
