Our Mission Statement
Thoughtful Planning. Wise Investing. All Things Possible.
Our Story
The Levinson Vargas Group is a team of experienced financial advisors who take an active, ongoing interest in the lives of their clients in order to carry out a personalized investment strategy on their behalf. Managing wealth involves much more than reviewing investment portfolios, so we want to know where you've been and where you're going, both financially and otherwise.
With more than a combined 40 years of experience, we pride ourselves on the wide range of appropriate solutions we bring to our diverse array of clients: advertising and entertainment professionals, independent business professionals, entrepreneurs, corporate executives, couples, and individuals.
Our goal is to present wealth accumulation strategies with an emphasis on prudent growth and asset preservation, all tailored to meet the investor's long term goals. Life can be difficult to plan for, but we've been by our clients' side through birth, death, graduation, marriage, divorce, inheritance, and much more.

Working With You
Our process focuses on getting to know you as a person, clarifying your financial goals and molding our services to fit what you need. We will guide you through each step of the process, and are always available for questions about how your plan is doing, and how to make it better.
1. Initial Meeting
Our first meeting is where we determine how well we would fit as your financial advisor, and you as our client. We want to make sure you are paired with the best team to help you to reach your financial goals, so it is crucial that we establish a strong relationship from the start.
2. Setting your Goals
Once we've determined that we are the right advisors for you the questions becomes, "What are your goals?" Whether it's retiring comfortably, buying a house, selling your business, or just accumulating wealth, we will work together to examine your current financial situation and develop a target that is achievable and important to you.
3. Creating Your Strategy
From those goals, we can create a plan that contains specific strategies designed to help you reach your targets. Through our years of experience we have developed numerous, proven strategies encompassing issues such as retirement planning, estate planning, tax minimization potential, and wealth transfer, but we still remain focused on customizing our approach to each client we work with.
4. Implementing your strategy
After discussing and refining your strategy, we will work closely with you to bring it to life. Using our firm tools we will assess logistics, tax impact, asset allocation adjustments, and saving/ benefit modifications to make sure we are best equipped to keep your plan on track.
5. Review
Ongoing communication is the foundation of successful collaboration. We will make sure you are kept up to date on your financial progress and will revise your strategy as circumstances change. This means maintaining a constant communication with you to make sure your concerns and request are always addressed.
