Your family at the center.
An enhanced approach for families with $10M+ in net worth.
TMB Coordinated Family Office Structure
More than additional services. A more coordinated way to use them.
Every TMB relationship includes planning, investment management and coordination with your CPA and attorney.
As a family’s wealth grows, more people and more decisions become involved. At this level, the work is organized around the whole family, with TMB keeping the pieces connected.
One team keeping the agenda.
TMB coordinates the CPAs, attorneys, bankers, insurance professionals and trustees involved, around one family plan.
Specialists where they serve your family.
We work with vetted specialists in areas such as private banking, philanthropy and trust administration when your family needs them.
The next generation included.
Family meetings and education help heirs understand the plan and their role, on your terms.
A family of services. Organized around your family.

How coordination works.
- 01
Start with your family’s priorities.
A conversation about what you own, who is already involved and what needs attention first.
- 02
Agree on the scope.
We put the services, responsibilities and advisory fee in writing before you sign anything.
- 03
Keep the agenda moving.
TMB keeps a shared family agenda and coordinates the next steps with you and your professionals.
An illustrative family agenda
| Issue to review | TMB’s role | Other professionals | Next decision |
|---|---|---|---|
| Ownership of a family business | Bring the business and family plans into one discussion | Attorney and CPA | Agree on a timeline for succession decisions |
| Gifts to children or grandchildren | Show how gifts fit the family’s overall plan | Estate attorney and CPA | Decide which approach to review with counsel |
| Charitable giving | Compare giving approaches against the family’s goals | CPA and attorney | Choose an approach to set up |
| Liquidity and lending | Review near-term cash needs and lending options | Banking partner | Decide whether a credit line makes sense |
Illustrative agenda, not client results or individualized recommendations.
Scope, fees and fit.
Does $10M refer to net worth or assets managed?
Net worth. The family-office approach is designed for families with a total net worth of $10 million or more. That is different from the fee calculator, which estimates the advisory fee on the assets TMB would manage. A family can be a fit even if TMB will manage only part of its wealth.
Can you work with our existing professionals?
Yes. Coordinating with the CPAs, attorneys, bankers and insurance professionals you already trust is central to the approach. Where you need someone new, we can introduce vetted specialists.
How are the service scope and fees established?
After an initial conversation, we agree on which services your family needs and put the scope and advisory fee in writing before you sign anything. Advisory fees on managed assets above $10 million are negotiable, and outside professionals bill for their own services.
