Our Mission Statement
Experience, intellectual capital and dedicated personal service to help you meet your life goals
Clarifying Your Financial Vision
Everyone has a financial vision, but many cannot define it. Our group helps clients characterize and simplify that vision in an effort to maximize their long term goals.
Financial Vision can consist of five main Components:
1) Income
2) Expenses
3) Long Term Financial Planning (Retirement, education, Business, etc)
4) Catastrophic (Long term care, disability planning, and life insurance)
5) Death (Estate planning)
By properly understanding the relationship between these five components, useful and scalable financial well being may be attained. Our team helps clients clearly define their long term financial goals and develop the framework for success. In addition, we work with our clients, their attorneys and accountants to plan for their legacy.
Disclaimer:
Life insurance, disability income insurance, and long-term care insurance are offered through Morgan Stanley Smith Barney LLC's licensed insurance agency affiliates.

Discerning Financial Advice, For Every Dimension of Your Life
Over the years our team has had the pleasure and honor of building long term, multi-generational relationships with some truly extraordinary families and individuals. We've shared in their personal successes, watched their children and businesses grow and helped provide guidance and support when they've needed it most. Above and beyond investing, estate and tax planning strategies, our clients count on us to help prepare them for each phase of their lives and all the twists and turns that come with the journey.
Our practice serves a broad range of clients that have successfully accumulated assets, yet desire the ability to consult regularly with dedicated advisors who can help them clarify their goals, define effective strategies to help achieve them and coordinate and manage the complexities of doing so.
Financial Planning
Goals Are Personal, Wealth Management Should Be Too. Whatever it is you want to achieve, The Granite State Group at Morgan Stanley is here to help. Working with us as your Financial Advisor Team, paired with our technology, is a great way to access advice and build a wealth plan. We will work with you to help you uncover your needs, manage risk, and build a customized plan to help you reach your financial goals.
Multi-Generational Families
Our financial planning process for multi-generational families is a rigorous analysis of your lifestyle, tax obligations, future gifting plans and portfolio objectives. This analysis drives our strategy as it pertains to financial and estate planning for wealth preservation, tax optimization, asset allocation and investment decisions. Throughout the entirety of the relationship, we can work closely with your attorneys and accountants.
Unique Portfolio Construction
With many years of combined experience, we know that every client is different; therefore, deserves a unique and customized portfolio that will complement their financial needs. By utilizing the firm's resources, current information, and market familiarity, it allows for us to move away from generic models and create the individual plans my clients are accustomed to.
Business Owners
Here at Morgan Stanley, we understand the unique circumstances that arise from owning your own business. Working us can help set you and your business up for success by helping to make smart investment decisions that will impact your business in a positive way.
Tax and Estate Planning Strategies
Building, protecting and passing on a legacy involves much more than investing wisely. It requires careful analysis of your objectives, intelligent structuring of your assets and integrated, strategic planning and implementation. The Granite State Group will work with you and a Trust Specialist or other estate planning resources within Morgan Stanley to help you look at the options, and figure which might be the best fit for you.
Retirees
Developing a plan for retirement is essential. Working with an experienced advisor can help with making sure you are meeting your personal retirement needs. Retirement planning can be stressful, we are here to make this stressful process as easy as possible.
Corporate Retirement Plans
We work with companies to develop and manage their corporate retirement plans. Let us bring our experience and resources to the table to take this burden off of you.
Women & Wealth
Whether you are a single woman or mother, a divorcee or widow, or a happily married woman in charge of the finances, we want to assist you in education, resources and planning to help you navigate all things financial.
Our Six-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 help 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 & Plan 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 techniques, as well as risk management and estate planning strategies.
5. Plan Monitoring
Holistic plans change over time as your personal and family situations change. We are here to revisit your plan regularly to make tactical changes to help meet the needs of our ever-changing situations and environment.
6. Ongoing Service
Committed to premium service, we focus on developing a relationship that provides 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.
Our Services
We offer a wide variety of services to clients, due primarily to the depth of knowledge and intellectual capital we have to offer.
Tax, Trust, and Estate Planning Strategies
As your family and personal wealth grows, you face more subtle and complex planning challenges. Our in-depth understanding of your unique circumstances helps us to coordinate with your external tax and legal advisors to help create a purposeful legacy that reflects your personal values and aspirations.
Entrepreneur and Executive Services
As a business owner or corporate executive, your wealth is often linked to the success of your company. Your investments may be heavily weighted in stock options and equity awards or hinge upon the talents of key individuals. You may also face the uncertainty of successfully and equitably transitioning your business to your heirs. Our team provides you with the knowledge and solutions to help maximize your benefits and protect yourself from unforeseen challenges.
Retirement
Everyone has a unique vision for their retirement, and proactive planning is the first step toward bringing that vision to life. Rather than planning your life around your money, plan your money around your life. The first step in planning for retirement is defining what retirement means to you.
Financial Planning
While your perspective on finances may be different from your parents', the fundamental aspects of mapping out your financial future are the same today as they were a generation ago - planning, creating wealth, and establishing good credit. Using our suite of tools - our LifeView® platform - 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, providing a baseline for future discussions.
Planning Your future
Our team will work with you to understand what your priorities are during these crucial years and implement a customized strategy for you. Whether it is planning for retirement, transitioning into retirement, or already managing your assets in retirement, our team is equipped with the resources and the knowledge to help you accomplish your personal and financial goal.
Understanding Your Savings Vehicles
When it comes to retirement savings, the most important thing is to get started—after all, time is one of your greatest assets. Although retirement may seem far for some, it is essential to get started on planning for future living expenses, potential education funds, or travel costs. Let us help you educate on ways to grow and preserve your wealth.

The Psychological Transition into Retirement
Most retirement preparations focus on financial planning, but it is equally crucial to look at personal considerations and help you with easing the fear of the unknown. Given that many people overlook the psychological adjustments of retirement, we can help you understand why it’s important to be emotionally (not just financially) ready for retirement.
Risks to Your Retirement
Once you determine what kind of retirement you want, we will work together to take a closer look at the risks that might be standing between you and your retirement goals. No matter how well you save during the accumulation phase, it’s critical to plan how you convert those assets to income. We can help you navigate the challenges that may arise.
Log into Your Account
Impact of Taxes
The strategies you use when drawing down your retirement savings can have a significant impact on how much you’ll pay in taxes and may help you keep more of the returns. Each retiree’s situation is different but establishing a tax management strategy for your investments can help you retain more of your investment returns.
