Who We Are

Life Insurance Consultants that specialize in helping family offices reduce their fiduciary liability through comprehensive audits of their life insurance portfolios.

What We Do

Wellspring is committed to helping family offices understand two main things:

  1. The difference between a life insurance audit and a life insurance review.
  2. How to reduce fiduciary liability for trustees by understanding that the reduction in liability comes from the depth and frequency of the audits, not the results of the audits.

A Review is performed by the person who placed the coverage and is focused on the life insurance policies and carriers.

An Audit is performed by someone who has dual expertise in advanced planning and life insurance so that they can identify all of the relevant factors that affect the fiduciary liability of policy owners.  A life insurance audit includes not only the policy performance, but many other factors, including how the policy is owned and taxed, how the coverage meets the current needs of the family, etc.

Fee-based audits are based on the facts and circumstances of the specific situation.

  • Fee-based life insurance audit services offered through Wellspring Planning Group, LLC, a state (GA, TX) registered investment adviser and an affiliated entity.
