"We're proud to work with multiple generations of our clients who rely on us for objective advice and guidance on the path to pursuing their life goals."
– ARTHUR D. KRAUS, CAP®, CLU, CHFC

Founder and firm principal, Arthur D. Kraus, ("Art") CAP®, CLU, ChFC, began his career as a financial advisor in 1960, long before most Americans had even heard of comprehensive financial planning. To Art, an approach to financial decision-making that recognizes all financial and investment decisions are interdependent, is not just common sense, but makes good financial sense.

He believes the only way to determine if a decision will be beneficial or detrimental to the long-term goals you have established for yourself, your family or your business is to view them in the context of a comprehensive plan that considers both your short-and long-term objectives. READ FULL BIO
