Legacy Companies, LLC
The Legacy Companies train financial advisors in "Values-Based Planning."
Developed together with Paul Schervish this is a clearly thought out program
based upon worthwhile principles, standards and qualities and designed for the
accumulation, management and transfer of everything one owns. Through this process,
clients gain complete confidence in their financial plan as their financial
affairs and personal values become aligned. This kind of discernment process
is one we feel is central to a donor's making decisions about philanthropy and
the disbursement of wealth.
