How We Can Help You

    Icon Image
    Financial Planning

    The cornerstone of an effective wealth management plan is comprehensive financial planning, capturing your goals, resources and expectations for the future. Effective planning helps to successfully fund education and retirement income funding. Planning helps eliminate blind spots and helps ensure legacy goals are met.

    Morgan Stanley offers a wide array of brokerage and advisory services to its clients, each of which may create a different type of relationship with different obligations to you. Please consult with your Financial Advisor to understand these differences or review our Understanding Your Brokerage and Investment Advisory Relationships brochure available at https://www.morganstanley.com/wealth-relationshipwithms/pdfs/understandingyourrelationship.pdf

    Morgan Stanley Smith Barney LLC ("Morgan Stanley"), its affiliates and Morgan Stanley Financial Advisors do not provide tax or legal advice. Individuals should seek advice based on their particular circumstances from an independent tax or legal advisor.

    Asset Management

    After our financial planning process uncovers your goals, personal assets, liabilities, family dynamics and other unique circumstances, we create an investment strategy tailored to fit your needs. We make it a priority to educate our clients on the alignment between their goals and investment allocation.

    Planning is paramount to securing a successful retirement. We bring intense focus and education to the retirement process, no matter where you are in your professional career, it is not too early to start preparing for your retirement.

    401k Rollovers

    If you have a 401(k) from a previous job, we make it easy to consolidate your assets into one account so you can monitor your progress and investment results all in one place. With the benefit of added simplification from the client's perspective, we also ensure that there is no risky overlap or concentration in securities. You also have the full suite of an open platform from which to choose investments from.

    Trust and Estate Services

    A critical part of any financial plan is ensuring your assets are titled in a way that fits your specific needs, wants and wishes, while keeping taxes in mind. Whether you choose to leave assets to family members, endowments, or charities, we provide the access and guidance needed to align your assets to your goals. When necessary or requested, we work with any other financial, tax, or estate advisors you have.

    Legacy Planning

    We provide white-glove service to each and every client. We feel that the family members of our clients should be treated likes clients as well. Our practice is expanding and evolving alongside the families we work with, so we believe it is imperative to be able to offer the same level of service to the next generation(s). We believe starting financial education early is the best way to understand the complexities of effective wealth management.

About Collin D. Shapiro

About Me:

When did I begin working at Morgan Stanley:
July, 2018.

What was doing before Morgan Stanley:
Working as a Financial Advisor in Fairfield County, Connecticut, where I was born and raised.

Why I moved from Connecticut to Buffalo, NY:
Outside of the career opportunity with Morgan Stanley, my college sweetheart, turned wife, and now mother of my two awesome children, Nora and Lincoln, is from Buffalo. Go Bills!

Something non-financial most people wouldn’t know about me:
I was awarded the 1st Team All-State football placekicker in high school, and later kicked for the University of St. Lawrence.
I also love to play the guitar and anything with my kids.

College Degree / Major?
A bachelor’s degree from St. Lawrence University / Majored in both Economics and Business in the Liberal Arts.

With so many advisors, why me?
The Financial Advisor is only as valuable as the relationship that’s built between themselves and the client. I build relationships based on repetitive trust, a record of doing the right thing, and letting humility guide the investments.
