CASE STUDIES

Real Plans, Real Results

These are the situations we work through together. See if any of them sound familiar.

CLIENT SNAPSHOT

Equity Compensation

A man and a woman sit at a table in a cozy cafe, looking at a laptop together. They appear engaged and happy, with mugs, a notebook, and a smartphone on the table.

"He was doing everything right. He just needed it to work together."

A Senior Engineering Manager with $340K in total comp, RSUs vesting every quarter, and no system connecting any of it.

Inheritance

A woman sitting at a wooden table by a window, looking thoughtfully outside, with a coffee mug, notebook, and pen in front of her.

"She inherited more than money. She inherited the weight of getting it right."

A $1.5M inheritance arrived before Rachel was ready — retirement accounts, a taxable portfolio, and the family home. What she needed wasn't a portfolio. It was someone to slow everything down.

A Growing Family

Family of four sitting on a couch, using a laptop, with children playing toys on a table in front of them in a cozy living room.

"They had the life they wanted. They just needed time to catch up to it."

A dual-income couple in their late 30s with a growing family, variable income, and a two-year financial to-do list that finally got done.

Two fashion designers sitting at a table, looking at fashion photos in a studio with clothing racks and photos on the wall.

Business Owners

"He built something real. He just needed a structure to protect it."

A co-founder of a film production company with a formally valued business, real employees, and an eight-year-old operating agreement that addressed almost none of what actually mattered.

A man and woman sitting on a couch looking at a piece of paper together in a living room.

The Fiduciary Test

"Something felt off. He just didn't realize how bad it actually was."

A Director of Operations who had a financial advisor for almost a decade — and what the honest audit actually found.

A man and woman sit at a table, looking at a laptop. The man wears glasses and has his hand on his chin, and they both appear focused. Papers are scattered on the table, and a black mug is nearby. The background shows a bookshelf, plants, and a window with curtains.

H1-B Planning

“They built a life here. They just didn’t know how secure it really was.”

A Senior UX Designer on an H1B visa with a growing income, a stable career, and a future in motion, facing decisions where timing and structure mattered more than effort.
