Posted on Daniela MoralesTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I recently watched a retirement webinar by Towerpoint Wealth and found it extremely informative. The webinar answered many of the questions I’ve had about planning for retirement and helped clarify things in a way that was easy to understand. I appreciate how educational and straightforward the webinar was. I’m looking forward to scheduling the complimentary call to ask a few more specific questions and continue the conversation.Posted on LUZ ROBLESTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. As someone who is getting close to retirement, I truly appreciate the online resources from Towerpoint Wealth. Their retirement guides and educational videos have been very helpful and easy to understand. There is a lot of valuable information available, and it gives me confidence knowing it’s coming from a trusted fiduciary firm. Thank you for providing such thoughtful and informative content!Posted on Sergio SerranoTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Great firm to work with. Awesome people.Posted on Ruth HarkeyTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I'm really thankful to have found Joseph Eschleman and his team at Towerpoint Wealth. We knew we needed help figuring out the best way to maximize our nest egg, and plan for the future. Joe really helped us nail down our long term goals, and set up multiple investment accounts to support each one. His assistant, Lori is also so kind and wonderful. She's responsive and helpful in all aspects. They check in when there are changes in the market, and are always available for questions and reassurance. I also appreciate that, as a company, they give back and volunteer in the community. They really care about the community they serve, and it shows. I'm proud to be a client. Thank you, Towerpoint!Posted on Lee W Miller - Napa Real EstateTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Megan's management of our retirement fund has brought us a sense of comfort for the first time ever. The rate of growth 'ticked up' faster than what our previous fund managers delivered. And yes, this 'could be market timing'. But the thoughtful manner where Megan took the time and effort to explain her forecast was quite unique and comforting. Also as thorough as we had ever experienced previously. We know there are no guarantees...in the market or in life. But in both scenarios, applying well thought out strategies and plans is sure to be far superior to a passive approach.Posted on Gerardo CalvilloTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Since winding down and now retired we have moved nearly all of our stock portfolio and cash assets to Towerpoint Wealth and have found the transition convenient and easy. Joseph Eschleman and his team have been very informative and are managing our funds to allow for a balanced conservative growth. If you want to focus more time for family and retirement, we recommend Towerpoint Wealth to manage your funds. Gerardo and Jennie CalvilloPosted on Katie EagerTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I'm thoroughly impressed with the personal time and attention I have received with Towerpoint Wealth - and bottom line, the positive results. I feel fully confident my goals and needs are heard and are taken into account with every step. Joseph and his team are quick to respond to all my questions, and after having experience with many other financial institutions/planners over the years, I cannot recommend Towerpoint Weath enough - I'll never leave!Posted on Jim BTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Getting close to retirement age (a few years away)and I have faithfully contributed to my 401k and have been making my own investment/allocation decisions. I am a buy and hold investor- never sold in a downturn and tried not to invest in an upturn market. I would reevaluate my positions twice yearly. I have always had a hard time selling to reap profits. Wisdom states to become less aggressive as one nears retirement so I soul searched and determined that is what I must do for my retirement years and an investment advisor would be in my best interest. I did my due diligence by searching multiple sites/firms and even interviewed a few. I highly recommend you do the same. One of the firms was Towerpoint Wealth. Going in I had the usual emotions-anxiousness, a feeling of wasting my time again, wondering if they would fit my investment style, etc. Immediately upon entering their office I felt invited and welcomed. Jonathan and Steve introduced themselves before I even had a chance to meet Joseph. On our first meeting Joseph was very knowledgeable, addressed my concerns, interests, and asked about my goals, plans, and future visions. On my next meeting with Joseph I was presented with a game plan on a white board addressing how the firm can help with my goals and lifestyle wishes. Very impressive. This company fit my investment style and temperament (Is there such a thing?) As a small fish in the ocean they made me feel like a large fish. So, after about 2 years of searching, Towerpoint Wealth is my personal decision. I don’t think you could do yourself a disservice by putting Towerpoint on your interview list. As I am a fairly new client to their service I will update my review down the line as the situation warrants. So far a great start and have complete confidence it will be a great relationship. Best wishes on your journey also. Jim P.S. Shout out to Lori for her excellent communication informing me of any needs/concerns. Update: No longer a client as of 3/24. Nothing personal just didn’t fit my investment strategy over the year I was with them.Posted on Savage GrandpaTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I can not express how satisfied I am with Mr Jonathon La Turner. I met Mr La Turner 18 years ago I went into a local branch and opened a CD for my grandaughter it was the first interaction with this young man he was so well mannered and so efficient when i got home I wrote the CEO how satisfied I was. Mr La Turner advanced quickly and became a financial advisor I had my money with an advisor who never told me anything, my account kept getting smaller! Mr La Turner Not only has continually had my account grow! He has Excellent customer service skills and continually follows up and relays data! I requested some data from Mr La Turner last week I am in San Francisco and he was in Sacramento he took a train and a bus to meet with me! Like always a pure pleasure seeing him! He has a gift of just making you feel good. He is also one of the smartest brightest young individuals I have ever met! If anyone is looking for a financial advisor I highly recommend him!

If you’re searching for tax planning near me in Walnut Creek, CA, you’re likely looking for more than a one-time tax preparation service.

In Walnut Creek, effective tax planning is more than a checkbox; it’s a powerful tool for financial control. California’s complex tax code, frequent legislative updates, and high-income tax rates make it essential to plan ahead, not just react during filing season.
Whether you’re preparing to sell a business, managing a windfall, or entering retirement, strategic tax guidance can help you:
Avoid overpaying on tax returns
Optimize capital gains and charitable deductions
Coordinate income across multiple states or entities
Ensure ongoing compliance with both federal and state tax laws
Clients come to us when they need clarity. They stay with us because of our consistent, proactive engagement, backed by strategy, not guesswork.
We work with a broad range of clients across Walnut Creek and surrounding areas, each with unique goals and planning needs. Our financial services and tax planning strategies are designed to deliver impact at every life stage.
Small businesses seeking smarter entity structuring and employee compensation planning
Retired couples managing withdrawals, RMDs, and estate strategies
Independent professionals and consultants with complex income streams
Non profit organizations seeking tax-efficient growth and governance
Entrepreneurs preparing for business exits or succession
Our tax services are never one-size-fits-all. We assess your full financial picture, investments, income, assets, estate planning documents, and develop a personalized tax planning roadmap that evolves with you.
We help clients in Walnut Creek:
Optimize charitable giving through donor-advised funds and trusts
Strategically time Roth conversions and withdrawals

Stay ahead of changing regulations and maintain compliance
As your dedicated tax and wealth partner, we collaborate with your attorney, CPA, or CFO to ensure complete alignment. You’ll never be left guessing or coordinating between disconnected advisors.
Towerpoint Wealth is not a product-pushing accounting firm. We’re a fiduciary partner, delivering independent, unbiased advice that prioritizes your goals. Every plan we create is backed by research, logic, and a deep understanding of both the numbers and your values.
We also believe tax planning is never a one-time event. As your life and the tax code evolve, so should your strategy. That’s why we offer ongoing, year-round support, not just during filing season.
Working with us begins with a free consultation, where we take the time to understand your full financial picture. From there, we move through a disciplined process:
Discovery & Review – Analysis of current returns, goals, and tax exposure
Opportunity Mapping – Identifying areas for immediate and long-term improvement
Implementation – Coordinated execution with legal and financial professionals
Ongoing Strategy – Adjustments to keep your plan in sync with life and law
Our firm was built to serve those who want more than cookie-cutter tax preparation or reactive accounting. We provide comprehensive, forward-looking accounting services that integrate with your broader financial life.
Clients across Walnut Creek appreciate our:
Deep expertise with California and federal tax laws
Coordination across legal, estate, and business professionals
Concierge-level service and responsiveness
