Insurance Agents

At My RIA Lawyer, we understand that remaining current on all relevant industry laws and regulations can feel like a full-time job. But our insurance compliance specialists are ready to step up to handle any challenge your agency is facing. Insurance agents, brokers or producers must abide by laws impacting the course of their work that vary from state to state.  They are governed by common law, federal law, state law and contract law.  As required by common law, insurance agents are to act in good faith, exercise reasonable care and diligence, and carry out client instructions.  State laws are enforced by state insurance departments.  These enacted state legislatures dictate the licensing requirements that must be met by insurance agents.

Many RIAs offer insurance solutions to their clients. Historically, insurance has been a commission-driven business that does not fit the compensation model or fiduciary ethos of the fee-only RIA. But as clients demand more services from their advisors, asset management is no longer enough.

We provide insurance compliance consulting for those RIAs who offer not only financial planning and wealth management services, but also insurance as an important component of their service offerings.  We will make sure that your fiduciary duty of care is upheld and that you observe insurance regulations as you provide annuity solutions, life, long-term care, and disability coverage and insurance suitability for your clients.

Making the jump to start your own firm is a big decision. Its stressful, hard work, and you have to learn a ton. This why I decided to hire a professional team to help establish my RIA the right way the first time. My RIA Lawyer’s team is absolutely amazing. They have demonstrated expert knowledge, personable staff, and they have shown us how much they genuinely care about setting us up for success by giving us the tools we need to help others. Thank you Leila and Liz for all of your hard work!

The initial consultation was extremely valuable. I definitely recommend speaking with them. I had very custom needs, and they rose to the task!

I worked with Leila as I was getting my new RIA firm up and running. Leila provided expert legal advice as a complement to the national compliance firm who was assisting me with my registration. I was introduced to Leila after I had already begun the process and not sure how I would have made it through without her. She was an invaluable resource and I look forward to working together again in the future!

I have used My RIA Lawyer for filing my Annual Amendments in the past and was very happy with their services and professionalism. Leila Shaver is very responsive, communicative, and extremely knowledgeable. I highly recommend their services!

Leila is an expert with compliance but she also offers a wealth of knowledge as a business owner. We discussed everything including compliance, marketing, business partnerships, and more. Even though my firm is not yet at a point to work with her, she has sent me multiple emails offering assistance with the things we spoke about during our meeting.

Four Reasons to Hire a Law Firm Instead of a Compliance Firm

and help them understand what it is they actually need to be asking for.

We are the answer to All Your Questions.

We Are
My RIA Lawyer

“In life, it’s not that we don’t have enough time; it’s that we lose so much of it. We waste time on things that can be outsourced instead of spending time on things and people we love. I’d rather pay someone to clean my house and take that time to spend with my children. Our clients are happier letting us ‘clean house’ while they work with their clients. In the end, they have more satisfaction in their businesses and they’re happier overall.”

— Leila Shaver Founder
