Social Security Maximization

Your Social Security retirement benefit represents a lifetime’s worth of savings, time, and work, and is most likely your oldest and largest retirement account. Although many Americans are familiar with the basics of Social Security, very few are able to figure out – on their own – exactly the best way to file so they can get the most out of all they have put in.

Dowling Legacy & Retirement, we help our clients understand their Social Security benefits and educate them on how they can maximize their benefits. Delay filing for Social Security can potentially increase your benefit amount by a rate of eight percent per year. For 2018, the average monthly benefit for retired workers is $1,404, while the maximum benefit is $2,788.*

There is a lot to know about Social Security, and the more you know, the better decisions you can make, helping to bring you that much closer to maximizing your benefit. We will help you get the most you can out of your benefit, so you can take one step closer towards the comfortable and happy retirement you have worked so hard for!
