What’s Better Than Just an Estate Planning Attorney?

CPAs Who Can Save You Up to 39.9% of Your Entire Net Worth

We marry our CPA firm with estate planning attorneys to ensure a simple transition for your family and a legacy of wealth.

Avoid Giving 40% of Your Net Worth to the Government

We get it…

It may not feel comfortable to talk about things that could go wrong in our lives. And since it’s “not important today,” it’s easy to push it off. But poor/no estate planning could cost your family up to 40% in taxes when your wealth transfers to them after you pass on.

Our CPA firm works with estate planning attorneys to help you plan for:

Death
Divorce
Retirement
Partnership Dissolvement
Special Needs

That’s why we specialize in estate planning, wealth transfer advisory and tax planning, helping you and your family to retain the maximum amount of your net worth.

We’re the Perfect Estate Planning Financial Advisors
for You, If You…

Need a Plan

If you don’t have an estate plan (or your plan is outdated), 40% of your money/assets will likely end up in the government’s hands.

Want Peace of Mind

You want to know that your assets, business, and family will be taken care of if anything should happen to you.

Aspire to Leave a Legacy

You want to preserve your assets and set things up for your heirs so everything you’ve worked for is sustained for generations.

«For a small investment today in estate planning services, we could save you up to 39.9% in tax liability when your assets transfer to your loved ones, ensuring an abundant future for your family and giving you peace of mind and a legacy-driven purpose today.»

“Tim is wonderful. Easy to work with and very thorough, saving me money on my business taxes. I wouldn't use anyone else.”

CPAs With a Passion for Estate Planning

Established in 1964 in Portland’s Hollywood district, this firm already offered extraordinary tax planning services. Since then, I have evolved our company beyond the typical accounting firm to include estate planning and wealth advisory because I wanted to take care of my family’s legacy wealth and help others do the same.

Over the years, clients have passed away and I’ve seen the disaster it creates for those who don’t have a plan in place. I truly want better for you and your family.

I know what good estate planning looks like for a bereaved family. It takes unnecessary stress off their plate and leaves them in a very good situation for decades.

On behalf of my family and our amazing team at Downing & Co, I look forward to working with you so you can save in taxes today and ensure your legacy for the future.
