About

WHY CLIENTS HIRE US? The Irvine Group at Morgan Stanley is a team of Family Wealth Managers at Morgan Stanley that oversee the finances of a select group of business owners, retirees, accomplished professionals, and their multi-generational families. Our commitment to our clients is simple – “To give our clients a clear understanding of where they are in their financial lives and where they are headed”. Our relentless focus on serving as your personal CFO and on our clients’ unique priorities is demonstrated through three core principles: MULTI-FACETED TEAM (COMPETENCY) "You can feel more confident knowing that a passionate and experienced team will serve as your stewards of wealth." COMPREHENSIVE APPROACH (COLLABORATION) "Clients are encouraged to pursue their passions and gain the confidence that comes from having a process, plan, and strategy in place." "Advice and service from a team building long-lasting genuine and caring relationships from generation to generation." HOW I CAN HELP! * Consolidate your accounts and rolling over old 401(k) accounts. * Will you be able to retire on time and as planned? * Create a meaningful legacy for your loved ones. * Concerned if something were to happen to you, is your family protected? * Concerned about how to pay for college. * Receiving an inheritance, settlement, or proceeds from the sale of a home or business. * Recently divorced or widowed and want to get a handle on your finances. As a CDFA™, I often work with clients and their attorneys to navigate the financial aspects of divorce, analyze settlement proposals and establish a post-divorce plan. OR: * You would like a second opinion on your financial situation, investments, and goals. * Your current advisor is not meeting expectations.
