As we enter into 2017, Capstone and the Firm will continue to offer high quality, turnkey planning, encompassing insurance, accounting, tax and legal representation for captive clients. I want to thank Team Capstone, headed by Charles B. Earls III, its President and by its VP-Operations, Megan M. Brooks, for their ongoing commitment to excellent client service, as well as the contribution of our law firm's attorneys, particularly tax lawyer Logan Gremillion, senior tax attorney, Steve D.

Mr. Feldman brings 30+ years of experience on the substantive business side of transactions along with the perspective offered as an attorney and as a former practicing CPA.
