Our approach to investment planning

144 and 10b5-1 plans

The Executive Services team helps tackle various complex financial issues for corporate executives and employees with equity-based compensation benefits, including SEC Rule 144 and 10b5-1 trading plans.  Mary has been working with corporate executives for over 20 years and specializes in the sale of restricted stock.

Collaborating with your existing financial network

We can work with you and your other advisors, including your CPA and attorney, to develop and implement an estate planning strategy based on your circumstances. Wells Fargo Advisors does not provide legal or tax advice. Be sure to consult with your own tax and legal advisors before taking any action that could have tax consequences. Any estate plan should be reviewed by an attorney who specializes in estate planning and is licensed to practice in your state.

Restricted stock services

Employers and institutions can offer restricted stock services to grant company shares to their employees. These restricted stock units gradually accrue value and are structured to vest after a certain timeframe. Talk with our team for more details and to evaluate if this is a worthwhile option for your employee compensation packages.

Family legacy accounts

As a service-oriented team, we strive to expand relationships with all generations of your family to help them better understand the challenges of investment planning and properly managing wealth. We want each of our clients to have the clarity, confidence, and professional advice necessary to plan for the responsible stewardship of family wealth. Comprehensive financial management doesn’t stop with a review of your lifetime – it looks at future generations and what sort of legacy you want to leave for them.

We understand that life transitions and key life events – such as adding new members to a family, buying a home, sending a child/grandchild to college, caring for an aging parent, and/or planning for retirement – often come with distinct hopes or concerns about the changes you may encounter in the future. 

By helping families recognize and anticipate these future life events, our team can help reduce anxiety and prepare everyone for what lies ahead. And as life changes, we meet to review and adjust investment plans accordingly.
