Success by itself is no longer enough; you want to enhance its value for yourself . and those you cherish. It's a prime time— if you can adapt. Perhaps you've noticed an increasing need to make iniformed judgments in areas foreign to your background. Your decisions are now affected by broad-reaching implications concerning ownership interests, taxes, your estate, and family considerations. We understand the rules of this new game, and our years of experience have helped many successful people make the transition.
