Financial Decision Partners

At Financial Decision Partners, LLC, we understand the challenges you face when it comes to planning for your retirement and managing your investments. You may have a deferred retirement account, but you're unsure of what to invest in and are hesitant to put your money in the market. You may also have concerns about what would happen to your family if you were to pass away, leaving them with debt and little income to pay the bills. On top of that, you may have a child with special needs who will require care even when you're no longer able to provide it.

We are here to help. Our team, led by founder and Certified Financial Planner practitioner Donald H. McCarty, Jr., CFP, ChSNC, is dedicated to providing you with the vision, service, and pathways to secure your future. We believe that your best interest is always first and foremost, and we work with you through your life changing concerns with expertise in retirement planning, investment management, insurance planning, tax planning, and estate planning.
