As the President and Founder of Grossman Financial Planning Group (GFPG), it is my personal goal to help families build and protect their wealth, by providing them with creative financial solutions that include plans to protect their wealth for the next generation.  For over two decades, I have been with Lincoln Financial Advisors, a long-standing financial institution with deep resources and an esteemed team of national specialists. 

At GFPG, our expertise is in wealth accumulation and preservation, investment management, retirement and estate planning strategies, tax reduction strategies, business succession, and charitable giving.  We focus on individualized goals and review ongoing changes leading up to and through retirement.  GFPG implements strategies for successful business owners, professionals, senior-level executives, and retirees.  We work on a cross-disciplinary basis, not just a legal, accounting, investing or insurance basis but across the board.  This process allows us to identify coordination gaps and missed financial planning opportunities in your existing plans.  Most importantly, we understand the difference between getting work done and getting it done as well as possible. Our clients say that our work has given them greater confidence and clarity in their financial plans and has provided them with a sense of security that comes from knowing what they need to do to achieve their financial objectives.  Each plan is custom designed and all recommendations are in writing.  We only take on a limited number of select new clients each year who fit our client profile.  We are committed to providing outstanding service that has allowed us to maintain long professional and personal relationships with our clients.
