What does it mean to be a fiduciary?
It is a legal standard that requires that we put the needs of our clients ahead of our own. And if we don’t, we are financially liable. It helps ensure that our clients always receive our best advice, solely in their best interest. The standard also requires us to be transparent about our fees and any possible conflicts of interest.
How does a client choose who to work with?
Great news! They don’t have to choose. We work as a team, servicing and guiding all of our clients. You will always have one of Navigoe’s partners in every planning meeting. The Navigoe crew consists of highly qualified professionals working together to ensure that someone is always available to help clients when they have questions or when urgent matters arise.
What is the process to begin working with Navigoe?
We are seeking lifelong relationships with our clients, to be a partner in helping them achieve all that matters to them around their financial lives. The first step is to visit our website or call our office to schedule an introductory meeting. We are South Bay locals, just like you. We enjoy meeting people in our historic office in Redondo Beach. If preferred, we can also meet virtually via Zoom. In that initial complimentary meeting, we will explore whether there are synergies to work together as we begin to create a customized financial plan.
