How it works
A clear rhythm for decisions that rarely arrive alone. The relationship begins with a focused first year, then flexes with the questions, deadlines, and transitions life actually presents.
The Harbor process
The beginning is structured enough to create momentum. The work that follows stays responsive to the decisions in front of you.
A focused conversation about what is changing and whether Harbor looks useful.
Receive a plain-language scope, fee, and outline of the first year.
Organize documents, priorities, assumptions, and the questions beneath the numbers.
Work through the choices in sequence and create a practical action list.
Formal reviews and in-the-moment coordination keep the plan useful.
The first year
Actual work follows the decisions and deadlines in the plan.
Discovery, organization, assumptions, and the decisions that deserve attention first.
Planning conversations, scenario comparisons, and a prioritized implementation map.
Portfolio, tax, benefits, protection, and estate coordination.
Review what changed, update the plan, and establish the ongoing cadence.
Working together
What the relationship looks like once the work begins.
New relationships often meet more frequently while the plan and implementation sequence are being established, then move to a deliberate review rhythm with access between meetings.
Harbor creates and coordinates the action list. The client, custodian, tax professional, attorney, or benefits provider completes the steps that belong to them.
The relationship becomes less about building the initial map and more about keeping it current when life, laws, markets, or priorities change.
A clear next step
A short, no-pressure conversation about what is changing, what feels unresolved, and whether Harbor is the right fit.
