Hi, and welcome! If your financial life has gotten complicated and you have a feeling you don’t know what you don’t know, you’re in the right place. Maybe your business is doing well, but your income, your taxes, and most of your net worth run through it. Maybe your RSUs keep vesting, your ESPP shares keep piling up, and you’re not sure what to sell, what to hold, or what you’ll owe in April. Or maybe you inherited money or were named a trustee, and you’re not sure what you can do, what you should do, or who to ask. We work with business owners, people with equity compensation, and inheritors and trustees. Our first real conversation is about your life, not your numbers. From there, we build one clear plan for your whole financial life, then help you actually get it done. We sit on your side of the table. That means coordinating your taxes, investments, estate plan, and major decisions, and working alongside your CPA and attorney so the moving parts stay in sync. If it has a dollar sign on it, we want to be part of that discussion. I’m a CFP® professional with more than ten years in the industry. Before starting Luhman Wealth Partners, I worked at a multi-family office serving wealthy families. I helped manage their portfolios, pulled together each family’s full wealth picture, and talked with them about their plans, trusts, and estates. Tax planning became my focus because it’s one of the few areas you can actually control. You can’t control the market, but the tax code has rules you can use in your favor. I started this firm to build the firm I’d want as a client: fee-only, a fiduciary at all times, and advice that is only ever about you. We’re a boutique firm by design, based in Irvine in Orange County, and we serve clients nationwide virtually.
