“We all must work together for the client, connecting and collaborating to help solve their problems.” – Jeff Motske
Robert Reiss: Let's roll back to 1999. Talk about your vision for Trilogy.
Jeff Motske: I created the model that we use at Trilogy Financial, which is the combination of tax, financial and estate planning. In my previous life I was in the retirement planning space, but I knew there was more out there. I was working with my clients, and I recognized they had needs that we didn't service. So, I built a little network to better serve those needs, specifically tax and estate planning. Then I realized that a more comprehensive solution needed to be created, and the only way to realize this vision was to start my own firm…and that was the very beginning of Trilogy Financial.

We all must work together for the client, connecting and collaborating to help solve their problems.
