Estate Planning
Ensuring Your Wishes Are Carried Out
At Delta Wealth Advisors, we work closely with your attorney and CPA to build a seamless wealth transfer plan tailored to your unique needs. With many voices offering advice—attorneys, accountants, family members, and friends—it can be confusing to ensure your wishes are properly executed. We collaborate with these professionals to help ensure your estate plan reflects your desires while addressing the potential pitfalls of wealth transfer.
Above all, we encourage that your wishes are honored, creating a comprehensive plan that carries out your vision for the future.
We help you navigate the complexities of Estate Taxes and Income in Respect of a Decedent (IRD), often helping your beneficiaries inherit more and you minimize tax burdens.
We collaborate with your attorneys to develop strategies within your estate plan that help protect your wealth from creditors, predators, and spendthrifts.
- Creditors: Individuals or entities to whom your beneficiaries owe money, who may attempt to claim assets from your estate to settle debts.
- Predators: Individuals who may try to exploit or manipulate your beneficiaries for personal gain, such as opportunistic in-laws or others with selfish motives.
- Spendthrifts: Beneficiaries who struggle with financial discipline, whether due to poor money management or issues like addiction, potentially leading to harmful financial decisions.
For vulnerable beneficiaries, we create a plan to help ensure they are cared for, their benefits are protected, and their future needs are met without disrupting any existing support they may receive.

Insurance Planning
Protecting What Matters Most
At Delta Wealth Advisors, we understand that you only need insurance if you have something to lose. Our goal is to help you select insurance solutions that provide the right protection, fit within your cash flow, and align seamlessly with your broader financial plan. Insurance is a critical part of your financial strategy, but it must work in harmony with the other aspects of your plan.
Insurance products are offered through LPL Financial (LPL) or its licensed affiliates.
Through our brokerage platform, we offer access to a wide range of life insurance solutions, including term insurance, permanent insurance, and specialized riders, tailored to meet your unique planning needs.
Your ability to earn an income is fundamental to the success of your financial plan. That’s why protecting your income with disability insurance is a top priority. We offer solutions for executives, medical professionals, blue-collar workers, and business owners, including disability buy-out coverage for business owners.
As you transition from protecting your income to safeguarding the assets you’ve built, we provide solutions to cover the risks of extended care. These include traditional long-term care coverage, life insurance riders, hybrid products, and collaboration with elder care attorneys to tailor a plan that suits your goals and values.
Tax Alpha: The additional incremental value or return generated through effective tax management strategies, with the ability to enhance after-tax returns. It can be achieved through tax-loss harvesting, tax-efficient asset allocation, and capital gains management.
