Protection that fits the plan.
Insurance should solve a problem the plan can't absorb on its own. We size coverage to the gap — not the commission.
Life, disability, long-term care, and property and liability coverage sized to the gap.
Insurance Planning
Life & Disability
Term ladders, permanent-policy roles inside an estate plan, and the disability coverage households most often overlook.
Long-Term Care
It fits households weighing how future care would be paid for — through coverage, through earmarked assets, or through some combination.
Property & Liability
Umbrella, valuables, and excess-liability coverage coordinated with the rest of the risk plan.
Commercial Insurance
Business owners carry two balance sheets — the firm's and the household's — and a gap on either side lands on the same family.
A family updates its estate plan, and the insurance desk is in the room. A term policy bought years ago for a mortgage that no longer exists gets resized to what the plan actually needs — and the trust that will own it is the one the estate team just coordinated.
An illustrative composite, not a specific client or a promise of results.
Income replacement, first.
We model term ladders, permanent-policy roles inside an estate plan, and the disability coverage households most often overlook. The pattern we see most is a term policy bought years ago for a mortgage that has since shrunk, alongside no disability coverage at all — even though for most working households, the ability to earn is the largest asset on the balance sheet and the least protected one. Sizing starts with what the household actually needs replaced, for how long, and what existing group coverage already handles, before any product is discussed.

The risk that retirement misses.
LTC is the most expensive and least-insured risk for most retirees. We compare traditional, hybrid, and self-funded paths against your actual longevity and balance sheet. A complete analysis includes the option nobody selling a policy mentions: self-funding. For some balance sheets, earmarking assets is cheaper than premiums; for others, a policy protects the surviving spouse's standard of living in a way earmarking can't. Which side of that line a household falls on depends on assets, health history, and family logistics — not on the product brochure.

Liability rises with success.
A high-value home, a teen driver, a rental property, or a board seat each changes your liability picture. We coordinate umbrella, valuables, and excess-liability coverage with your other risk planning. These coverages are usually bought separately, from different agents, at different times — which is exactly how gaps form. An umbrella policy sized years ago rarely keeps pace with a net worth that has grown since, and a new rental property or board seat can create exposure the existing policies never contemplated. Reviewing the whole stack together, against the current balance sheet, is the point.
- Homeowner and valuables review
- Auto and teen-driver underwriting
- Rental and landlord coverage
- Personal umbrella sizing
- Director & officer / professional liability
Two balance sheets, one review.
Business owners carry two balance sheets — the firm's and the household's — and a gap on either side lands on the same family. We review the coverage a business already carries — property, liability, and the policies that come with leases, loans, and contracts — alongside the owner's personal plan, so protection is sized once, across both. Where a policy belongs with a specialist market, we coordinate rather than improvise.
- Business property and liability review
- Lease, loan, and contract coverage requirements
- Owner personal-plan coordination
- Specialist-market coordination when needed
- Renewal and coverage-gap monitoring

Answers from the practice.
Where in Cherokee County can I compare long-term care insurance with life insurance planning for retirement?
At the Woodstock office we lay both contracts on the conference table and run a side-by-side ledger: premiums, inflation riders, and the tax-qualification rules that apply to long-term care contracts. Observations are shared—decisions stay yours. 755 Financial does not provide tax or legal advice.
What is the biggest mistake Woodstock retirees make when buying umbrella insurance?
They size the umbrella to match Georgia's modest auto limits instead of net worth. We collect every schedule of assets before quoting, so the sizing has a documented basis. Observations are shared—decisions stay yours.
How does 755 Financial coordinate long-term care insurance with existing life insurance during a retirement transition?
We order in-force illustrations from both carriers, then model three stress scenarios—health spike, market drop, early death—before any replacement is considered. The coordination worksheet is signed by you before any policy is replaced. Observations are shared—decisions stay yours.
What does 755 Financial's insurance review process actually involve?
The process starts with an inventory of every policy currently in place — life, disability, long-term care, property, and liability — compared against what each one actually covers versus what the household's balance sheet and income actually need to protect. Gaps and overlaps both surface: a duplicate life policy from a former employer is common, as is an umbrella policy with a coverage limit that hasn't kept pace with a growing net worth. Recommendations, when they come, coordinate with the wealth and estate plan rather than being sized in isolation, since a life insurance need often shrinks or grows as the investment portfolio changes.
How is insurance compensation structured at 755 Financial, and does that create a conflict of interest?
755 Financial's Insurance practice involves commission-based compensation more typical of insurance placement, which is a different structure than the fee-only Wealth Management practice. Any conflict this creates is addressed by disclosure, not by pretending it doesn't exist: the firm's Form ADV Part 2A itemizes compensation sources, and clients are told directly when a recommended policy involves commission. The relevant question isn't whether commission-based insurance can ever be appropriate — sometimes it structurally is the only way to place certain coverage — it's whether the compensation structure was disclosed before the recommendation, not after.
