Our Suite of Services
As your wealth grows, so does its complexities and the resources needed to manage it effectively. We leverage our experience and relationships to deliver innovative strategies that are tailored to your needs. We look forward to speaking with you to understand your challenges, so we may map out a strategy to help achieve your particular priorities and goals.
Wealth Management
Wealth Management brings all the dimensions of your life together. We listen carefully to understand the connections across your personal life, your family, your career and your legacy goals to develop a comprehensive strategy that is uniquely yours.
Retirement Planning
One of our key areas of focus is helping you prepare for and thrive in retirement. From IRAs to RMDs, we manage the complexities of your comprehensive retirement plan assets, helping you easily transition to the next phase of your life with security and confidence.
Portfolio Management
Managing an investment portfolio should be a consultative, disciplined process that balances your attitudes about investing with careful analysis of the financial markets. Working together, we create a customized strategy that applies long-held investment principles to help your assets appreciate appropriately, generate cash-flow or create income as you require.
Cash Management Services
Creating adequate cash flow and securing liquidity are the day-to-day aspects of implementing a financial strategy. We help you meet your personal cash management and borrowing needs, while thinking strategically about how specific approaches may affect current and long-term costs and taxes.
Estate Planning & Philanthropic Strategies
Delivering an estate to the next generation or favorite charity requires more attention than families often realize. We coordinate with your estate and tax professionals to align your legacy goals with the appropriate asset titling and beneficiary designation requirements, incorporating best practices to enhance results.
Trust Management Services
An alternative to (or in addition to) a will, is establishing a trust. A trust involves three key parties: the Grantor (the person who funds the trust ), the trustee (the person who controls the trust and is the legal owner of the assets held in the trust), and one or more beneficiaries (for whose benefit the trust is established and who are the beneficial owners of the trust assets). We are able to help you in establishing a trust, modifying it and also any other issues you encounter along the way.

About Wes Dawson
Wes Dawson is a Vice President, Portfolio Management Director, and Family Wealth Advisor. He has over 25 years of experience in finance and has been with Morgan Stanley since 2011. Wes has been awarded the Five Star Wealth Manager Award in Gulfshore Life magazine for twelve consecutive years (2013-2025).
For over two decades, Wes has helped clients address their financial concerns, including families whom he has served for multiple generations. By putting his clients first, he has developed a successful practice built on long-term, trusting relationships.
Wes utilizes a comprehensive wealth management process to develop actionable plans tailored to individual situations. The firm’s modern wealth management analytics and risk management tools are used to formulate customized strategies. Wes draws upon his extensive investment experience in different market cycles, while engaging Morgan Stanley’s vast resources, to find solutions.
Wes began his career as a Financial Advisor with PaineWebber in Naples in 1994. He later joined Merrill Lynch as a Financial Consultant, and then worked at Prudential Securities, a predecessor firm of Wells Fargo Advisors, where he became a Portfolio Manager, one of his greatest accomplishments. He subsequently joined Morgan Stanley and earned Portfolio Management Director and accredited Family Wealth Advisor designations. He is also a member of the Portfolio Management Institute (PMI).
Wes’s passion doesn’t end at managing portfolios. Growing up in Naples Florida, Wes enjoyed playing sports and music and focused on baseball and drumming. He continues to be active in sports and music, from playing tennis, golfing, and paddle boarding with his wife Linda to drumming for various musical events. It is never a dull moment in the Dawson household, even though his two children, Wesley and Ashley, are grown and out of the house. His three dogs are always ready for play time. Wes learned at an early age that to be successful in any facet of life requires a high level of discipline and persistence. One of Wes’s favorite quotes was by Calvin Coolidge, 30th President of the United States of America - “Nothing in the world can take the place of persistence. Talent will not; nothing is more common than unsuccessful men with talent. Genius will not; unrewarded genius is almost a proverb. Education will not; the world is full of educated derelicts. Persistence and determination are omnipotent. The slogan "press on" has solved and always will solve the problems of the human race”.
