How Our Advisory Relationship Typically Works
Client relationships typically begin with complimentary introductory conversations by phone to determine mutual fit, discuss goals and answer initial questions.

Introductory phone consultation
Follow-up discussion and financial planning priorities
Review of statements or assets to be transferred
Retirement income and portfolio considerations
Coordination with your CPA or attorney when appropriate
Laguna Niguel Summit Wealth Management uses institutional investment managers ranging from approximately $400 million to over $140 billion in assets under management, providing access to a broad range of investment and estate planning strategies.
In addition to portfolio management and planning, we may also evaluate insurance-based solutions when appropriate, including fixed and indexed annuities as part of an overall retirement income strategy. These tools can play a role in managing risk, providing income stability, and addressing specific client objectives when aligned with a broader financial plan.
Insurance Disclosure
Insurance products, when offered, are made available through appropriately licensed insurance representatives in their separate capacity as insurance agents. Insurance services are separate from investment advisory services and may involve separate compensation from Insurance companies and potential conflicts of interest. Clients are under no obligation to purchase any insurance products through our firm or its representatives. Laguna Niguel Summit Wealth Management will only make recommendations for insurance products when they are consistent with the firm’s fiduciary obligation to the client.
