FAQs for LGBTQ+ Clients

June 24, 2025

Q: Do I need a financial planner who understands LGBTQ+ issues?

A: While every financial plan includes things like budgeting, saving, and investing, LGBTQ+ individuals often face additional considerations, like navigating estate planning without legal marriage, protecting assets from discrimination, and aligning money decisions with chosen family dynamics. We’re here to help you plan with confidence and pride.

Q: Can you help us plan as an unmarried couple?

A: Absolutely. Whether you’re domestic partners, cohabitating, or just starting to plan a future together, we’ll help you protect each other legally and financially—with the right mix of ownership strategies, estate plans, and beneficiary designations.

Q: What if my family of origin isn’t supportive?

A: You’re not alone—and we take that seriously. Your financial plan will reflect your values and the people you trust. From healthcare proxies to inheritance planning, we help you define what “family” means in your life and legacy.

Q: Are there investment options that align with my values?

A: Yes! We can help you invest in companies that support human rights, diversity, and inclusion—or avoid ones that don’t. We call this values-aligned investing, and it’s part of how we do Wealth Strategies with Heart®.

Q: Is our information private and safe with you?

A: Yes. We use secure systems to protect your data, and you’ll never have to educate us on your identity or relationship structure. We see you—and we’ve built this firm to serve you with care and confidentiality.
