Our Five-Step Process
Our wealth management approach focuses on you, your family and your career – where you are today and where you want to go. Working together, we develop the strategies to help get you there, navigating life’s challenges and helping you make more informed decisions about your wealth.
1. Introductory Call
We begin with an informal conversation to understand your financial concerns and determine how we can add value. If we all agree to move forward, we’ll schedule our next meeting and request important financial information.
2. Get to Know You Meeting
We continue the dialogue by fostering an in-depth conversation where we learn about the values that shape your decisions and identify any unique circumstances. We also review the documents you’ve prepared and define your priorities.
3. Analysis & Development
Here, we utilize proprietary financial planning tools to develop a personalized and detailed plan with recommendations to help you grow, preserve and transfer your wealth.
4. Implementation
In this step, we present appropriate strategies that are designed to work together to help achieve your goals. Upon your approval, we open new accounts for you at Morgan Stanley and initiate our investment recommendations. We’ll also begin to implement other strategies we’ve discussed. These often encompass tax minimization strategies, as well as risk management and estate planning techniques.
Ongoing Service
Committed to premium service, we focus on developing a relationship that provides dedicated value to you and your family. As we begin to execute each strategy, we’ll set up tools so you have immediate access to your account information. And because markets and personal needs evolve over time, we set up ongoing meetings to help ensure your plan remains on schedule to achieve your goals.
COMPREHENSIVE FINANCIAL PLANNING
Regardless of what stage your life is in - moving ahead in your career, enjoying retirement, or somewhere in between - as your Financial Advisors, we can help you achieve your financial goals.
Using a suite of tools that includes goal-specific analysis, we can work with you to create a realistic, holistic strategy that integrates the various aspects of your financial life, including your investments and cash management needs.
We can create your personal roadmap to help achieve and protect your goals — a framework that makes the connection between your life goals and your financial resources and provides a baseline for future discussions.

Insurance
We take an extremely close look at your financial profile to decipher what type(s) of insurance most fit your needs and determine if your current insurance policies are best suited for you and your goals.
Retirement
Leading up to and through retirement, Cornerstone Capital helps you identify the most appropriate ways to obtain the income you need and help ensure that you are on track to achieve for financial goals

Regardless of your current financial circumstances, it is crucial to have a backup plan for your money. We regularly review your finances with you and coordinate with your estate attorney to help ensure that your wishes are met in the most efficient and cost-effective way possible.
Managing Investments
