We work with you to develop a wealth preservation plan that is effective and reflects your priorities.

Many of our clients own businesses, real estate and other assets. We work diligently with our clients to understand their priorities and interests to develop a plan to transfer those assets to family members or to third parties. This might include advising on insurance-based products, the use of family trusts and other structures.

A privately owned business, small or large, is best served in the long run with an understanding of the personal plans and lives of its owners and their families. As such, we advise clients on a personal level about their estate planning and their planning for the succession of the ownership and management of the business.

In recent years, our wills & estates practice has grown to include families and others looking for high quality, practical and effective advice (including related tax advice) concerning estates of themselves and their parents.

Our counsel provides clear, concise solutions in non‐technical terms while maximizing every opportunity with the goal of saving you money – reducing taxation while preserving wealth. Our team at MBS will work together and with your preferred advisors, communicating with you throughout the process to create a comprehensive, reliable strategy that meets your objectives.
