Mark Steffen

With family at the center of everything I do, I help you build, manage, and protect your wealth—so your loved ones inherit clarity, not chaos. As a family wealth advisor specializing in estate planning, my work goes beyond documents. I help families align their estate plan with their retirement strategy, tax decisions, and investments—so everything works together as one coordinated plan. Too often, I meet families in the middle of avoidable situations: messy estate settlements, unexpected tax bills, unclear wishes, and financial decisions made under pressure. What should be a time of support turns into confusion, conflict, and costly mistakes. I built my firm to change that. Through thoughtful estate planning, retirement planning, tax strategy, and investment management, I help families stay organized, intentional, and prepared—so when the time comes, everything is handled the way you intended. If you’re worried your family might one day have to untangle a financial mess—or you’ve seen it happen and want to do better—let’s talk. Schedule a free 30-minute consultation and start building a legacy your family will be proud of.
