Paul Newman, CLU® ChFC®

With over 30 years of experience in investments, insurance, and wealth management, Paul delivers honest and objective strategies using planning techniques designed to impact your financial future positively.


Our primary goal is to help businesses and individuals meet the demands of complex money decisions.


We believe people are vulnerable to a variety of wealth-eroding factors, including inflation, lack of proper legal protection, inadequate tax minimization planning, improper asset allocation, insufficient insurance protection, and unnecessary complexity.


We can’t guarantee future results, but we can guarantee your satisfaction with improved organization in your planning that helps you conserve, grow, and enjoy your assets and wealth-creating opportunities for your future.


Let our planning services help you maximize your future lifestyle.
