What Changes When Everything Works Together

Most advisory firms do one thing well and outsource the rest. At United Financial Planning Group, your investment decisions, retirement timeline, and tax planning reinforce each other, because the same team handles all three.

CFP® professionals, CPAs, and Enrolled Agents work side by side, not across town. Hover over a service to see how it connects to your complete financial picture.

Why Long Island Families Choose United

Long Island's financial landscape is uniquely complex: high property taxes, significant commuter costs, and layered state and local tax obligations. We built our firm to address exactly that.

Tax planning and investing under one roof

Most Long Island families use a separate CPA and financial advisor who never talk to each other. Our team includes both, so your investment strategy, Roth conversions, and tax return are all coordinated.

Built for NY's tax complexity

New York State's combined tax burden is among the highest in the country. We build every financial plan around that reality, from SALT deduction strategies to retirement withdrawal sequencing.

Two Long Island offices

Meet with us in Hauppauge (Suffolk County) or Lake Success (Nassau County). We also serve clients virtually across all 50 states.

Deep Long Island roots

Gerry Barrasso, CPA, CFP® began his career in finance in 1991 and built United around Long Island families. We understand this community's financial complexity because we've lived and worked here for decades.

Fee-only, always

We don't earn commissions or sell products. Every recommendation is legally required to be in your best interest. No exceptions.

The Long Island Tax Advantage

For Long Island residents, smart tax planning isn't optional; it's essential. Between New York State income tax, high property taxes, and the SALT deduction cap, the financial decisions that matter most are the ones that reduce your lifetime tax burden. Our team handles your investment strategy, Roth conversions, charitable giving, and tax return preparation, all coordinated to keep more of what you've earned.
