Services: Polaris Advisors' primary goal is to provide unbiased, honest and accurate financial advice. We provide investment management, tax planning, estate planning, and retirement planning. We meet our clients and prospective clients in our office and/or their home. Relationship: We look for long term relationships with each of our clients.
