Financial Planning Built for Chicago, IL

Chicago's diversified economy spans finance and trading, manufacturing, healthcare, and a major corporate headquarters base across the Loop and suburbs. Dual-income professional households and business owners benefit most from integrated tax and investment strategy rather than once-a-year filing.

Illinois has a flat income tax plus some of the nation's highest property taxes, so year-round planning materially affects Chicago households. That is exactly why a one-size-fits-all approach falls short here. We combine investment management with year-round tax strategy under one roof — led directly by Brandt Michelet — so every decision for our Chicago, IL clients is made with its tax impact in view, not as an afterthought at filing time.

Whether you are an employee with equity compensation, a business owner planning an exit, or a household building toward retirement, we map a clear, fee-transparent plan and revisit it as your situation changes. Your first consultation is free.

How do high Illinois taxes affect my financial plan?
Illinois income and property taxes make tax-efficient investing and retirement-account strategy especially valuable. We plan contributions, withdrawals, and entity structure to keep more of what Chicago clients earn.
