  "We feel very privileged to have located your services. As you can certainly tell, a lot of our estate planning pursuits have been mind boggling to us -- to say the least. While we recognize that the goals are being achieved, the mechanics can be puzzling. Your perception of our unprofessed or unknowing confusion has been most welcomed in the meetings to date."

  Bruce R. Johnson has been crafting strategic wealth plans for over 50 years, serving estate owners in 25 states. After writing literally hundreds of wills in conventional estate plans he observed that, all too often, owners of substantial estates were allowing their tax concerns to interfere unduly with the pleasure of daily living. He changed his client interview focus to facilitate discovery of the purposes of his clients' wealth. For more than 30 years, Bruce has built case-by-case, nationwide alliances of planning professionals dedicated to enabling clients with complex estates to maximize the impact of their wealth. Tax law changes in recent years have led to broadening the scope of the practice to bring owners of non-taxable estates into the discovery process. Bruce is a member of the state bars of Maine, New Hampshire and Illinois.
