Independent · Fiduciary · Tax-Focused

Your CPA, your attorney, and your portfolio should be talking. They're not.

Tax-First Planning for Attorneys, Business Owners & Retirees.

One advisor, accountable for how your taxes, estate, and investments fit together.

Advice You Can Trust

Held to a fiduciary standard, from a CFP® — the industry's leading financial planning designation.

You're Never Sold To

You get advice that isn't owned by or beholden to any custodian or product shelf.

A Plan That Fits

Built for your complexity — equity compensation, partnership income, and multiple advisors, handled as one.

What Clients Come To Us With
“My CPA and my financial advisor had never spoken to each other. I found out at tax time that a decision I made back in June cost me thousands I could have avoided.”

What Changes
“For the first time, one person actually understands my whole financial picture — and is accountable for making sure it all fits together.”

The Cost of Fragmented Advice

When your CPA, attorney, and portfolio manager aren't talking to each other, the cost is real:

Underneath the missed moves is a quieter cost: the nagging sense that something important is slipping through, with no one person you can call who sees the whole picture.

It shouldn't be your job to make your CPA, attorney, and advisor talk to each other — that's exactly what you're already paying them for. Every quarter it stays undone costs you money, time, and confidence in your own plan. You shouldn't have to manage the gaps between professionals you already pay.

One Coordinated Plan

Before D2 Partners

  • Your CPA and advisor have never spoken
  • Tax moves discovered after the fact, at filing time
  • Not sure your estate documents match your actual accounts
  • Big decisions made alone, under pressure

After D2 Partners

  • You feel confident every advisor is working from the same plan
  • Tax strategy planned every quarter, not discovered in April
  • Estate documents confirmed against your real accounts
  • Decisions made with someone who has the full picture

Planning Tracks

Choose the track for your biggest decision right now — not a vague, one-size-fits-all retainer.

Ongoing · Quarterly

Quarterly Tax Plan · Most Clients Start Here

Best for: your ongoing, year-round tax picture

  • Quarterly estimated tax calculations, so April never surprises you
  • A review of what you owe across every state you work in
  • A running relationship with your CPA, not a once-a-year handoff

You end the year knowing your number well before your CPA has to tell you.

Choose This Track →
One-Time Engagement

Equity Event Plan

Best for: a specific event — a vest date, an exercise decision, or a sale

  • A one-time timeline for a specific vesting or exercise decision
  • Cash flow modeling around that single payout event
  • A concentration and diversification plan once shares are in hand

You walk into that decision with a plan, instead of finding out the tax hit after the fact.

One-Time Engagement

Estate Coordination Plan

Best for: anyone whose estate documents haven't been reviewed in years

  • Confirmation your documents match your actual accounts
  • A beneficiary and titling review
  • Direct coordination with your estate attorney

You know your documents actually say what you think they say — and match your accounts.

Ongoing

Retirement Transition Plan

Best for: anyone moving from saving to spending in the next few years

  • A withdrawal order across your accounts
  • A Social Security claiming strategy
  • Withdrawals sequenced to keep you in a lower tax bracket, not just cover your spending

You know exactly which account to draw from next, and why, every year of retirement.

How It Works

One path from first call to a plan you can actually act on — and keep acting on.

01

Book

15 minutes with an advisor, not a salesperson — a real read on whether we're the right fit.

02

Share

One guided questionnaire — income, equity comp, debts, insurance, goals — so every recommendation after this is built on your actual numbers, not guesses.

03

Review

Recommendations built for your tax bracket and career stage — not a generic model portfolio.

04

Stay Aligned

Not a one-time handoff — as your life changes, we keep your CPA and attorney pointed the same direction.
