Opal Wealth Advisors is dedicated to helping successful families and professionals in Jericho bring structure, clarity, and purpose to their financial lives.
You’ve built something real. The question many of our clients are sitting with isn’t whether they have enough. It’s whether the financial structure around what they’ve built is actually working the way it should. At Opal Wealth Advisors, a fiduciary financial advisory firm based in Jericho, NY, that’s the conversation we’re built to have.
As a registered investment advisory firm, we operate under a fiduciary standard at all times. That means every recommendation we make is legally and ethically required to serve your best interest, not ours. We have no incentive to recommend anything other than what is appropriate for your situation, and we are transparent about how we work and what we charge before you ever become a client.
Our clients are typically successful families and professionals whose financial lives have grown complex enough that a coordinated, planning-led approach makes a meaningful difference. What defines them isn’t simply a number. It’s the recognition that the stakes are high enough to warrant working with a firm that treats planning as the foundation of everything, not as a feature layered on top of investment management.
Serving Jericho and the Greater Long Island Community
Our office is in Jericho, in the heart of Nassau County, and it sits at the center of a community we know well. Many of our clients have spent their careers building businesses, accumulating real estate, and raising families here. They don’t need a national call center. They need an advisor who understands the specific financial landscape of Long Island, from property values and estate dynamics to closely held business structures and New York State tax considerations.
We serve clients in Jericho, Syosset, Woodbury, Plainview, Old Westbury, Melville, and communities throughout Nassau and Suffolk County, with virtual meeting availability for clients across greater New York who prefer that flexibility.
Comprehensive Financial Planning and Wealth Management Services in Jericho, NY
Every client relationship at Opal begins with a full financial review covering income, taxes, insurance, estate documents, and the goals behind all of it. Before we talk about investments, we want to understand what you actually want your financial life to look like over the next 10, 20, and 30 years. From there we build a coordinated strategy where every element supports the others.

Financial Planning and Portfolio Management
A living financial plan tailored to your actual situation, not a template. We review and update it regularly because a plan that hasn’t been touched in three years isn’t really a plan. On the investment side, we manage portfolios without the conflicts that come with proprietary products or commission-based recommendations. Every decision is made in the context of your broader financial plan, your tax situation, and your long-term goals.
Retirement Income Planning for Long Island Families
Accumulating wealth and distributing it wisely are two entirely different disciplines. We help clients approaching or entering retirement structure income in a way that makes the money last and minimizes taxes over time. That means sequencing Social Security decisions, evaluating pension elections, planning Roth conversions at the right time, and building a withdrawal strategy that holds up across a 25 to 30 year retirement horizon.
Tax-Integrated Wealth Strategy
The highest-value planning conversations are almost always tax conversations. When to convert, when to harvest losses, how to structure charitable giving, where to hold which assets across taxable and tax-advantaged accounts. We integrate tax planning throughout your overall strategy and coordinate directly with your CPA so your investment decisions and your tax return are telling the same story.
Estate and Legacy Planning Coordination
We work alongside your estate attorney to make sure your financial plan and your estate documents are actually aligned with each other. Beneficiary designations that haven’t been updated in a decade, trust structures that no longer reflect the family’s situation, insurance policies that exist in isolation from the estate plan. These are the gaps that create real problems, and closing them is part of what we do.
Financial Planning for Business Owners and Executives
Business owners face planning challenges that most generalist advisors aren’t equipped to handle well. We work with closely held business owners on succession planning, sale preparation, and the transition from business income to portfolio income. For executives, we address deferred compensation strategy, concentrated equity positions, and the tax implications of large liquidity events.
Planning for Women Investors and Multigenerational Families
We work with women navigating major financial transitions including divorce, the loss of a spouse, an inheritance, or taking a more active role in managing household wealth. We also work with multigenerational families who want to build a shared financial framework that connects the wealth that’s been created to the values behind it.
Insurance Review and Risk Assessment
A complete financial plan accounts for what could go wrong. We conduct property and casualty insurance reviews to assess whether your current coverage is adequate and identify gaps that could expose you to meaningful financial risk.
The Opal Way: Building a Financial Plan With Clarity and Purpose
Our process is built around a simple conviction: financial decisions should connect to something larger than a spreadsheet. Through The Opal Way, we begin every relationship by understanding what your wealth is truly meant to accomplish: your goals, your family, your values, and the life you want to create. That foundation shapes everything that follows, from your first plan through every review and conversation down the road. To see how it works in more detail, explore The Opal Way here.

Frequently Asked Questions from Jericho Clients
Why work with a local, Jericho-based firm?
Opal Wealth Advisors is headquartered in Jericho – not a satellite office of a larger national firm. Our clients are business owners, executives, and families who have built their financial lives here on Long Island’s North Shore, and our planning reflects that context. We are not applying a one-size-fits-all national model to a local situation. We understand the specific financial dynamics of communities like Jericho, Syosset, and Woodbury because this is where we work every day.
What is The Opal Way and how does it shape my financial plan?
Many clients choose to conduct ongoing meetings virtually while maintaining the option for in-person discussions when needed. Virtual relationships typically include scheduled planning reviews, secure document sharing, and proactive communication throughout the year. This format allows clients to remain engaged in their planning process without requiring frequent travel while still preserving access to in-person support when major decisions arise.
I already have a CPA and an estate attorney. How do you work with them?
Many clients come to us with a trusted CPA and estate attorney already in place, and we are built to work alongside them. Our role is to connect the full picture so tax filing, estate documents, and investment decisions point in the same direction instead of being made in isolation. We bring the financial perspective to those conversations and flag where one decision affects another, so the whole team works from one strategy. You decide who stays involved, and we handle the coordination.
How do I know if I am getting comprehensive planning from my current advisor?
The clearest signal is what your annual meetings cover. If the focus stays on investment performance and rarely reaches taxes, retirement income sequencing, estate coordination, or insurance, you are likely getting investment management rather than comprehensive planning. Planning connects every layer of your financial life into one coordinated strategy, while investment management handles the portfolio on its own.
