Insurance Services

Life, disability and long term care insurance* are about risk. Risk is the exposure to the possibility of loss. Risk can be assumed, ignored or transferred to a risk bearer. By asking questions, and listening to answers, we are able to recommend, and help you implement, appropriate strategies to meet your personal and business needs and objectives.




* Long Term Care and Disability insurance are available through representatives who are independently contracted with one or more insurers who provide these types of insurance contracts. Long Term Care and Disability insurance are not underwritten nor issued by National Life Insurance Company or Life Insurance Company of the Southwest.

Trust and Estate Planning Strategies

We help our clients protect what they have worked a lifetime to build by showing them strategies on how to increase their assets, reduce their taxes, and assure that their estates are distributed as they want them to be. Our firm has access to trust services through various trust companies. Trusts can be used to avoid probate or reduce estate and income taxes. They can be used to transfer assets for the protection of your children, to avoid taxation of life insurance in your estate or to keep your assets intact while paying income to someone you designate.

Trust services are offered independently of the National Life Group companies.
