BEFORE YOU CONTACT AN ADVISOR
Know what to ask.
An advisor's services, approach and fees can differ from another firm's. These questions can help you prepare for a conversation you arrange yourself.
What does the firm help with? What is outside its service? Who will work with you?
How is the firm paid? What fees would you pay, and what other costs might apply?
How does the firm build and review a plan? What decisions remain yours, and what information will it need?
Does the firm work with people facing questions like yours? Ask about relevant experience and the limits of its services.
Start with an email conversation.
