How We're Paid

A straightforward path from your first plan to ongoing partnership, with no surprises and no hidden asset-based fees.

Step 01

Flat Planning Fee

One upfront fee covers your complete plan: retirement, stock comp, tax, and giving strategy.

Step 02

Ongoing Partnership

Once your plan is live, choose a flat retainer for continued planning, or AUM management if you'd like PLC to manage your investments.

Step 03

Always Disclosed

Every fee is agreed to in writing before work begins.
