Strategic Advice for the Closely Held Company or Affluent Individual
Welcome to Private Capital Solutions, a team of highly qualified and experienced professionals.
Thank you for visiting our website. Welcome. I'm Jim Kirlin, founder of the company. For the past 25 years, we have served as strategic wealth advisors to many successful closely held companies and individuals.
Integrating the components of a business or wealth transfer plan into a comprehensive financial and wealth plan is a problem that many individuals and business owners have not yet solved. Different plans, developed with different advisors, put in place at different times creates gaps and disconnects that could produce unexpected negative outcomes. A second opinion or review can help resolve any concerns.
Our role is to provide a process and the leadership to help you build a roadmap for a better overall financial and wealth plan.
Trying to figure out what to do and how to build a better wealth plan can be an emotional, stressful and time consuming struggle.
