Compensation Arrangement

Fixed-Fee

Sometimes referred to as “flat fee.” This compensation arrangement is typically based on the complexity of the client’s financial situation. 

Fee-Only

Fee-only does not mean the same as fee-basedThe only compensation we receive are the fixed-fees paid for the services we provide. We are not compensated by commissions, product sales, or referral fees. As a fee-only adviser, we are bound by the fiduciary standard as opposed to the suitability standard.
