It wouldn't hurt if you wanted to do that now as they could provide good information as you move forward and make decisions.Benefits: building a relationship, shopping firms to get the best fit, knowledge regarding big financial decision before they occur, knowing if  you're making any major mistakes, determining if your plans will actually help you tax wise SummaryIt might be too early but only something good can come out of a meeting with a knowledgable tax professional earlier rather than later.

Local coffee shops, restaurants, schools, etc.
