Expertise
Personal Planning
Lens Financial & Insurance Solutions provides individuals and families with innovative, cutting-edge products and services to help them grow, protect, and conserve their wealth through all stages in life. Taking into account your needs, goals, and tolerance for risk, we will work with you to bring clarity to what you want to achieve and how to get there. Some of our key services are detailed below.
Financial Planning
Through Eagle Strategies LLC, we provide personalized financial planning to our clients that is specific to several variables, including their income, risk tolerance, values, and family. We work with each client to identify and prioritize their goals, explore options, establish effective strategies, construct and execute a plan, and assess the performance of the plan and make adjustments as needed.
Wealth Management
Through Eagle Strategies LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of New York Life Insurance Company, we work with our clients to design and implement a variety of wealth accumulation and management plans, offering investment programs ranging from separately managed portfolios of stocks and bonds to mutual funds, and access to third-party wealth management programs. We offer a consistent process to help ensure management of investment assets according to your goals, risk tolerance and time horizon. We then monitor your plan on a continual basis, and adjust and evolve as your needs change.
401(k) and IRA Rollovers
When you leave a job or retire, you have a decision to make regarding your 401(k) money. While leaving those assets in the former employer's plan is an option, a rollover can be a consideration. Working with your tax advisor, we can help you determine the right course of action for you. This may include: leaving the funds in your existing plan, if permitted, or rolling them into your new employer's plan, if one is available and rollovers are permitted. Each choice offers advantages and disadvantages, depending on your specific needs and retirement plan, such as the desired investment options and services, applicable fees, expenses, and withdrawal options, as well as required minimum distributions and tax treatment of applicable options.
Neither New York Life Insurance Company nor its agents offer tax advice.
Asset Protection
There are numerous financial strategies and retirement income strategies that can help you accumulate assets for the future, protect your business and personal assets from liabilities, and safeguard asset transfer to children and grandchildren. We can help you figure out what the right course of action is for your specific situation and objectives.
Charitable Planning
Charitable planning allows you to support the organizations and causes that matter to you, while often providing immediate income streams and reducing your tax burden. Numerous charitable giving strategies exist, and we can help you design and execute a charitable giving strategy that is in alignment with your personal and philanthropic goals. Please seek tax advice from your own tax advisors.

Our financial advisors leverage Eagle’s sophisticated wealth management platform, comprised of many of today’s leading investment managers, to design customized investment solutions to help address our clients’ unique investment objectives and risk tolerance levels.

Disability and Extended
Care Needs

Estate Planning

We will work with you and your advisors to assess the impact of state and federal taxes on your estate and suggest strategies to help minimize those taxes while meeting your family’s needs. We do not provide tax advice. Please consult with your own advisors for tax advice.
Introduction
We use a proprietary process called MAP, or Macro Asset Perspective®. In this process, our advisors deal with protection of assets, accumulation of wealth and building retirement income that cannot be outlived.
The Process
We engage our clients in a discovery process to uncover their objectives and current financial state. We then do a thorough analysis of the discovery data and engage our team of professionals to develop a summary plan and recommendations. We then educate our clients as to their options and help them take action to implement the plan.
Our Role
We serve as the overall coordinator of your financial life, providing a master plan and implementation steps to accomplish your goals and aspirations. As needed, we also collaboratively work with ancillary tax and legal professionals to assure your plan is optimized across these important areas.
Macro Asset Perspective - (The Map®)
We are proud to be certified to offer the Macro Asset Perspective® planning process. Through every stage of life and whatever your personal goals may be, whether growing your assets or creating a lasting retirement income, you will glean value from the principles, processes and strategies found in the Macro Asset Perspective®.
