Many people look back on their lives with regret; not for the things they have done, but for the things they have left undone. They find they are more successful than they thought they would be and saved less than they intended. They find themselves in situations that are more complex and less predictable than they anticipated.

That is where Charlie Reed comes in. Charlie takes the time to get to know you and your preferences. She can help you anticipate and prepare for the bestand worst scenarios. The relationship she establishes with you enables her to provide you with the guidance you need to make the right choices. Charlie can provide the partnership you can rely on when making the most important decisions of your life.

Domestic Partnership Issues
If you're in a long-term relationship, you and your partner or significant other likely have shared goals and fiscal responsibilities. Yet, unmarried couples don't have the same benefits and legal protections automatically granted to married spouses.

I understand the financial hurdles that domestic partners face from interwoven finances and joint assets to fewer rights for federal, state and employer benefits. Along with legal and tax professionals, I can help you protect what you value most and recommend solutions to bridge the gaps and meet your long-term financial goals.
