How it works

A process built to find out whether you need us

Most financial conversations start with a product and work backwards. This one starts with your structure and only reaches a product if something specific needs solving.

01

The strategy call

30 minutes · no cost

We talk about what prompted you to look. You describe your situation, we ask questions, and by the end you know whether continuing makes sense. No slides, no product, no follow-up sequence you did not ask for.

  • What you are trying to solve or protect against
  • How your money is currently structured at a high level
  • What you have already tried or been pitched
  • Whether we are the right firm for this
02

The Financial Legacy Strategy

Completed together

A structured review of your full financial picture. Most people have never seen every piece laid out on one page, and for many that is where the value is — before anything is recommended.

  • Income and cash flow
  • Savings and liquidity, and where reserves currently sit
  • Mortgage balance and consumer debt
  • Investment and retirement accounts
  • Existing life insurance and coverage
  • Business assets, entity structure and obligations
  • Retirement, liquidity and legacy goals
03

Finding the inefficiencies

Our work, not yours

We look for the friction points: money sitting idle, capital you cannot reach without a penalty, protection gaps, coverage you are paying for twice, and taxes being deferred into an unknown future rate.

  • Where capital is idle or unnecessarily illiquid
  • Where you are exposed without meaning to be
  • Where interest is leaving the household unnecessarily
  • Where tax treatment is concentrated in one bucket
  • Where the existing plan is already sound and should be left alone
04

Design, review, decide

At your pace

If repositioning makes sense, we design it and walk through it with you — guaranteed values next to non-guaranteed projections, costs stated plainly, and the trade-offs named. You implement only what you understand.

  • A written design specific to your situation
  • Guaranteed and non-guaranteed columns shown side by side
  • Costs, charges and surrender terms explained
  • Coordination with your CPA or attorney where relevant
  • Underwriting and issue, if you decide to move forward
05

Ongoing review

Annually, or when life changes

A strategy built around your situation five years ago is a strategy built around a situation that no longer exists. We review as income, family, business and goals change.

  • Annual policy and strategy review
  • Beneficiary and ownership check
  • Adjustments as income or business structure changes
  • Coordination as new accounts or coverage are added

How we operate

Four commitments that shape every conversation

Structure before product

The first conversation is about how your capital is organized. A product only enters if it solves something specific that was identified first.

Trade-offs stated out loud

Every strategy on this site has costs and commitments. You will hear them from us before you find them yourself.

Your information stays protected

Detailed financial information is never collected through a basic web form. Anything sensitive is gathered through a secure process after we have spoken.

We work alongside your other professionals

Your CPA and attorney own the tax and legal work. We coordinate with them rather than working around them.

This is the short version — enough to frame a first conversation. The full review happens together, and anything detailed is collected through a secure process rather than a web form.

Takes about three minutes

No account numbers or balances requested

You will hear back within one business day

No cost, and no obligation to continue

Start your Financial Legacy Strategy

A short intake to frame the conversation. We will send a secure link for anything more detailed — nothing sensitive should be entered here.

Please keep this general. Do not include account numbers, balances or other sensitive details.

This form is not connected to a submission endpoint yet. Until it is, please book a call or email Troy@legacystrategies.co.

Please do not submit account numbers, Social Security numbers, policy numbers or other sensitive financial details through this form. Detailed information is gathered later through a secure process.

Questions

About the process

How long does the whole process take?
The strategy call is 30 minutes. The analysis is usually completed across one or two additional conversations. Design and review depend on complexity. Underwriting, if a policy is involved, typically adds several weeks and is controlled by the carrier, not by us.
What do I need to bring to the first call?
Nothing. It is a conversation. If you want to be prepared, a rough sense of your income, savings, debt and existing coverage is more than enough.
What does the analysis cost?
Nothing. If you implement a strategy involving an insurance product, we are compensated by the issuing carrier, and product pricing is filed with the state rather than set by us.
What if the answer is that I should not change anything?
Then that is the answer, and we will say so. It happens, and a client who leaves with confidence in what they already have is a better outcome than one who leaves with a policy they did not need.
Is my information kept confidential?
Yes. Information you share is used to prepare your analysis and, if you proceed, to submit applications to carriers you approve. See our privacy policy for details.

Next step

Fifteen minutes, and you will know where you stand.

A review is a short conversation about the coverage and savings you already have. We look at what you pay, what it covers, and whether there is a better fit available where you live. No cost, no obligation, and no pitch if nothing needs changing.
