In addition to my professional practice, I have shared my knowledge as a lecturer at Deakin University, specializing in superannuation and retirement planning.

FAQs

Helping you get started

Is there a fee for the first appointment?

This initial meeting is obligation free. We see this first meeting as an important step in getting to know you and to understand how we can work together. It generally can last between 1 and 2 hours, during which time, we will discuss your current situation and your goals and objectives. We’ll introduce our business, how we operate and what we do. We’ll also explore some of the general strategies that may be of benefit to you and that you may need to consider in achieving your goals.

If you feel comfortable with us and our approach, we can agree to proceed to the next stage. Please note that all fees and charges will be outlined to you prior to the commencement of any personalised advice services.

What do I bring/prepare to my first appointment?

To make productive use of our meeting together, it would be beneficial if you could bring along any documents that may be relevant to your financial situation. These documents may include the following:

Bank Account/ Investment Statements, Shareholding Certificates
Your most recent Superannuation, Pension and Annuity statements
Personal insurance statements.
Most recent income tax return.
Details about any entities you use including trust deeds (e.g. Family Trust, Self-Managed Super Fund).
Your driver’s licence OR Australian passport OR State Government issued photo card.
Other relevant documentation

If you are unsure, please bring it anyway. Too much information is far better than too little!
