  • Who will own the business when your gone?
  • What needs to be done to get the successor ready?
  • How will the successor acquire your business interest?
  • What do you think your business is worth?
  • How much do you need for retirement?
  • How much would your family need if your gone?
  • Do you have a written ownership and management agreement?
  • Is there adequate Life Insurance to fund a buyout of others and to pay off taxes, debts, and income for surviving members?
  • Have you planned for Long Term care expenses?
  • Do you have updated wills?
  • What if multiple children want to continue in the business? How can you make that work?
  • Are there any hurdles that could cause conflict in a plan?

These are all questions that we as a team can help you set up a plan and process to help make your wishes happen and for you to leave a legacy.

Why We're Different

  1. While most insurance products are similar in price and function, insurance providers are very different when it comes to structuring a plan that actually accomplishes what you want to do.
  2. There’s no such thing as a one-size-fits-all plan when it comes to your business.
  3. We’re your neighbors. We protect businesses and people we know and care about, and that means we always look for ways to protect you better, including carefully choosing the insurance companies we represent to be both affordable and responsive.
  4. Contact us and let the professionals at our company help you forge the strongest shield possible to help you protect the things you are working hard to build.
