Who We Are

Most wealthy families have the right advisors. They just don't work together.

We coordinate tax planning, wealth management, legal coordination, risk mitigation, and business advisory under one strategic roof — so your family's wealth is aligned today and prepared for tomorrow.

Our Guiding Principles

Built on four convictions we won't compromise on.

Every recommendation we make traces back to one of these. They're not slogans — they're the standard you can hold us to.

01

Client-Centered Fiduciary

We are required to act in your best interest at all times. Not most of the time. All of the time.

02

Independent

We aren't tied to any company, fund, or product line. We choose what fits your situation — full stop.

03

Holistic & Collaborative

We work alongside your CPA, attorney, and other professionals — or assemble the team for you.

04

Multi-Generational

Loyalty, transparency, and accountability across generations. The relationship outlasts any single transaction.

We don't sell products. We diagnose, repair, and prepare a roadmap. Think of us as the auto mechanic, not the auto salesperson.

Our Story

Built in Palm Beach Gardens. Designed for families with complexity.

Veracity Advisers was founded by Michael Simms and Adam Jorgensen on a simple observation: the families they served had the right professionals — a financial advisor, a CPA, an estate attorney, an insurance agent — but those professionals rarely spoke to each other. The result was avoidable tax bills, gaps in estate plans, and decisions made in isolation that affected the whole picture.

Veracity exists to fix the coordination problem. One team. One coordinated strategy. One client at the center of it.

Three decades and hundreds of client relationships later, Veracity has grown into a fractional family office: tax planning, wealth management, legal coordination, risk mitigation, and business advisory — operated as a single, integrated team. Same fiduciary standard a single-family office gets, without the eight-figure threshold.

How We Work

Education. Experience. Expectations.

It's how we conduct every relationship — and the standard we ask clients to meet us at.

Education

We co-plan with you. We explain the why behind every recommendation, supported by a national team of specialists — so you make confident decisions, not blind ones.

Experience

Coast-to-coast specialists in estate planning, business sales, complex tax, trusts, and intergenerational wealth transfer. Custodians include Schwab, SEI, RBC, and Interactive Brokers.

Expectations

Transparency, both ways. We'll be honest with you. We ask the same in return. Our model isn't a fit for everyone — and we're upfront about that.

Meet Our Founders

Two founders. Thirty years. One philosophy: clients first.
