Benefits of Marshall & Shaw

All of Marshall & Shaw financial services are meant to free up quality time for our clients while giving them peace of mind.

We focus on the day-to-day to free up our clients' time for other activities.

CONTROL
We have seen first-hand the mental burden of running a complex household. By professionalizing the role of a personal bookkeeper, we give our clients the ability to see their financials from a perspective that makes sense to them.

COMPREHENSIVE
Knowing where your money goes and what your financial priorities are is critical. It is hard to plan for the future if you don't have an accurate picture of your current income and expenses.

CONFIDENTIAL
Our top priority is our client's trust and confidentiality. It is Marshall & Shall's first consideration in all our services. Additionally, personal finances are meant to be personal, not something that is taken care of at the office.

CUSTOMIZATION
Our high-touch model ensures close attention to our clients' specific needs. Every report is customized, highlighting what and how the client wants to view their cash flow.
