Plan for Retirement.
Protect Your Family.
Preserve Your Legacy.

Crestline Legacy Partners helps individuals, families and retirees bring greater clarity and coordination to the financial decisions that shape retirement, family protection and legacy.

Our approach begins with understanding what matters to you — then helping you organize, coordinate and implement a plan designed around your priorities.

A More Coordinated Approach

Financial planning should not happen in separate boxes.

Retirement, family protection and legacy planning are different conversations — but they are rarely separate decisions.

A retirement decision can affect your spouse. A beneficiary decision can affect your estate plan. An estate plan may require financial implementation. A change in your family can affect all three.

Crestline Legacy Partners takes a broader view. We help clients understand how these areas interact, identify planning gaps, coordinate appropriate strategies and maintain an ongoing planning relationship as circumstances evolve.

The objective is not to accumulate more products or paperwork. It is to create greater clarity, organization and confidence around the decisions that matter most.

What We Help You Plan For

Three parts of one financial life.

Our planning process focuses on three areas: preparing for retirement, protecting the people who depend on you and coordinating the financial implementation of your legacy.

01

Retirement Planning

Accumulating assets is only part of retirement planning. Eventually the question becomes how those resources may support your lifestyle, family and long-term priorities.

  • Retirement income planning
  • Income stability considerations
  • Longevity and retirement risk
  • Social Security coordination
  • Healthcare planning considerations
  • Survivor and legacy considerations

02

Legacy Planning

A completed estate plan may still require organization, financial coordination and ongoing implementation to help carry the intended plan forward.

  • Estate-plan implementation support
  • Attorney-directed trust-funding coordination
  • Asset organization
  • Beneficiary coordination
  • Family legacy considerations
  • Ongoing legacy reviews

03

Protection Planning

A long-term plan also needs to consider what happens when life does not unfold exactly as expected.

  • Family protection planning
  • Survivor income considerations
  • Life insurance planning
  • Income protection considerations
  • Business-owner protection
  • Periodic protection reviews

The Crestline Planning Process

Understand. Coordinate. Implement. Review.

Planning should be an ongoing process rather than a one-time transaction. Our approach is designed to provide structure from the first conversation through future reviews.

STEP 01

Understand

We begin by understanding your family, priorities, concerns, current planning and long-term objectives.

STEP 02

Coordinate

We identify how the different areas of your financial life interact and where additional coordination may be appropriate.

STEP 03

Implement

We help move appropriate planning decisions from discussion into action within the professional services we provide.

STEP 04

Review

Life changes. We maintain the relationship and revisit areas of the plan that may require attention over time.

Retirement Planning

Retirement planning changes when the paycheck stops.

During your working years, much of the focus is on accumulation. Retirement introduces a different set of questions: where income will come from, how long resources may need to last, how risks will be managed and what you ultimately want to leave behind.

Crestline helps clients organize those conversations into a more coordinated retirement planning process.

Retirement Income Consider how available financial resources may support ongoing income needs in retirement.
Longevity & Risk Evaluate risks that may affect the sustainability of the retirement plan.
Family & Survivor Planning Consider how retirement decisions may affect a spouse, family members and long-term legacy goals.
Ongoing Reviews Revisit important planning considerations as retirement circumstances evolve.

Legacy Planning & Implementation

Your estate plan doesn't end when the documents are signed.

Legal documents can establish important instructions. But families may still need to organize information, follow through on appropriate implementation and keep financial arrangements aligned over time.

Crestline works alongside clients and their estate-planning professionals to support the financial and administrative implementation process within our appropriate professional scope.

01
Asset Organization Help organize relevant financial and ownership information needed during implementation.
02
Trust-Funding Coordination Help clients follow through on funding responsibilities based on instructions provided by their estate-planning attorney.
03
Beneficiary Coordination Review relevant beneficiary information within the appropriate planning and professional scope.
04
Ongoing Legacy Reviews Revisit implementation as property, family circumstances and priorities change.

Coordinated Planning

Some decisions require more than one professional.

Legal, tax, financial and protection considerations can overlap. No single professional should be expected to perform every role.

Crestline works within the scope of the services we provide while coordinating with estate-planning attorneys, tax professionals, financial institutions and other appropriate professionals when specialized expertise is required.

Our objective is to help clients maintain greater continuity between the different professionals and planning decisions that affect their financial lives.

For Estate Planning Attorneys

Your firm handles the legal plan. We help clients follow through.

Crestline partners with estate-planning firms seeking a structured post-signing process for clients who require additional support organizing and following through on estate-plan implementation.

Attorneys retain responsibility for legal advice, document interpretation and legal funding decisions. Crestline provides nonlegal administrative and financial implementation support within our professional scope.
