Trained, mentored, supervised. Working to the SLS standard.
Sara is supported by consultants and administrators who all work to the same standard. Trained by Sara, mentored by Sara, supervised by Sara.
Why this matters.
Many estate planning firms are built around one person. The risk for clients is obvious: if that person retires, leaves or simply has a fully booked diary, the standard the firm worked to may not survive. SLS was built to avoid that.
Every consultant working at SLS has been trained by Sara, mentors with Sara, and is supervised by Sara on every matter. The 'SLS standard' is not abstract. It is what Sara has spent her career developing, and it is what every member of the team is held to.
