What you can expect:

During your initial four hours of pro bono (no-cost) meetings, your advisor will focus on understanding your situation and helping you navigate important financial decisions. There is no selling of products or services during this period. Your coach will help you address your biggest concerns and provide advice and suggestions covering the most important topics during your judgment-free meetings. After completing the pro bono engagement, you and your advisor can discuss options for moving forward—whether that means continuing with pro bono assistance, transitioning to professional services, or concluding the engagement. The choice is yours, with no pressure or obligation whatsoever.

Everyone deserves access to professional financial guidance during this challenging transition. And that's precisely what you receive when working with one of our coaches. Our advisors provide their services with complete confidentiality and adhere to the CFP® Board's strict ethical standards. You couldn't be in better hands!
