Engagement Structure

How a Family Office Engagement Works

Every engagement runs across three phases — structure and governance design, build-out and onboarding, and ongoing management — with Advisors, Law Group, Accounting, and Capital moving in parallel, not sequence.

Family Office Advisory

Why an Integrated Family Office
Beats a Patchwork of Advisors

Most families piece together a wealth manager, an estate attorney, a family CPA, and an investment consultant — each working from a different picture of the family's total wealth.

Patchwork of Advisors Disconnected
No consolidated reporting — net worth scattered across statements from different firms
Investment policy, tax structure, and estate plan designed separately, often in conflict
No unified governance — decision rights and succession left informal or undocumented
Each advisor paid and incentivized differently, with no single point of accountability
Succession planning handled as a one-time event, not an ongoing process
Emanay Family Office Recommended
Consolidated reporting across every entity, updated on one cadence
Investment policy, tax structure, and governance designed together, by one team
Formal governance framework with clear decision rights and succession principles
One point of accountability across advisory, legal, accounting, and investment oversight
Succession and next-generation planning built in as an ongoing discipline

Every Engagement Stands Alone.
Every Engagement Scales With You.

One picture, every time: the governance framework, tax structure, and investment policy are designed together and reported from the same consolidated system — no reconciling three different advisors' versions of your family's total wealth. Diagnostic and blueprint fees credit toward a full engagement.
Why an Integrated Fee

You're Not Paying
for a Wealth Manager.
You're Replacing Four of Them.

Most families piece together a wealth manager or RIA, an estate attorney, a family office CPA or controller, and an investment consultant — each billing separately, none working from the same picture of your total wealth. Emanay replaces every one of them under a single engagement.

The Traditional Approach
Fragmented · Uncoordinated · Costly
The Emanay Engagement
Integrated · One Picture · Aligned
Separate Vendor #1
Wealth Manager / RIA
Investment management on a portion of assets — typically compensated on assets under management, with limited visibility into your total entity structure.
Typical fee: 0.5% – 1.5% of AUM annually
Emanay CapitalEmanay Capital
Your Investment Oversight Team
Investment policy design, manager selection, and ongoing oversight — coordinated with the full entity structure, not a single account in isolation.
Included in program
Separate Vendor #2
Estate Attorney
Estate planning documents and trust formation — billed hourly, often engaged as a one-time project rather than an ongoing governance partner.
Typical cost: $15,000 – $50,000+ per structure
Emanay Law GroupEmanay Law Group
Your Governance & Entity Counsel
Governance documents, entity formation, trust funding, and succession planning coordinated as an ongoing discipline, not a one-time project.
Included in program
Separate Vendor #3
Family Office CPA / Controller
Bookkeeping and tax filing across entities — often a full-time hire or a fragmented set of bookkeepers per entity.
Typical cost: $120,000 – $250,000+ salary, or per-entity fees
Emanay AccountingEmanay Accounting
Your Consolidated Accounting Team
Consolidated chart of accounts, monthly close, and multi-jurisdiction tax structuring across every entity — one system, one team.
Included in program
Separate Vendor #4
Independent Investment Consultant
Second-opinion investment reviews and manager due diligence — a separate advisory relationship, disconnected from the tax and legal structure.
Typical cost: $50,000 – $150,000+ annually
Emanay AdvisorsEmanay Advisors
Your Family Office Coordinator
A single point of accountability across governance, legal, accounting, and investment oversight — no separate consultant needed to make sense of it all.
Included in program
Traditional Approach — Combined Cost
