Initially, Mitch helped us structure our retirement planning for -our- retirement goals. He then coached us through the transition from work to retirement. Mitch and his team now manage our retirement funds, as well as serving as fantastic resource on matters surrounding retirement, aging, community engagement and numerous other issues. We were employed the academic and non-profit world, and contributed to the sorts of plans used in those places. I have been surprised by the flexibility that an advisor brings to managing retirement funds post-retirement. This is not an off-the-rack plan. It is bespoke, and we are very happy with it. I'm not sure if anyone uses Yelp to find a financial advisor. But if that's you're situation, take a look at their website.

One year out I never actually received any type of paperwork with a financial plan. Yes, he did return emails and was willing to make many appointments to speak via zoom, but in those conversations he gave very generic advice about diversification and investing in retirement, etc etc -- the type of advice you could read off any generic website with absolutely no insight into my actual situation despite my giving him access to all of my financial information. The only specific advice I ever got was to move my retirement account under his management where he charged 1.4%. Very dissapointing.

So My wife and I moved our IRA and brokerage accounts to Edelman 2011. We also had an issue with…read morea trust account with Wells Fargo for which great advice was offered. We went with them based on positive influence from Ric Edelman's radio show. He gives solid make sense advice. If you are looking to maximize your returns and match or beat the S&P 500 Edelman is not for you. Investing is NOT about maximizing returns it is about managing the risk. All investments have risks. If you go S&P 500 all in you are making a big mistake. Edelman invests in all sectors (banking, energy, manufacturing, natural resources etc), and maintains a balanced portfolio. So normally not all sectors collapse the same in a bear market. A diversified portfolio is the best way to maintain and protect your investment. Some complain such as they Edelman told them I need 2 million. Well that would be based on your spending patterns and how you want to live in retirement. Edelman will not lie to you they will give you a plan to reach your goal. It is up to you to lower your expectations or save more, or you may find you are on target. One thing I really like is that after your Adviser and you determine your needs and goals and give you a plan how your assets will be invested without regard to emotions including that of your adviser. Don't fool yourself into thinking that that does not matter. If your adviser is having a bad time in their personal life that can affect their outlook and the way they invest for you. That cannot happen at Edelman. Let them explain how. Believe me. Fees are reasonable and you may find lower fees elsewhere but know this. They make nothing by buying and selling your assets, Their fee is solely based on the value of your portfolio. No kickbacks from investments and no commissions. One review said something bad about a Trust with Edelman. They do not act as Trustees for trusts. For us with our Trust Issue with the terrible Wells Fargo they recommended an independent trust company. The Independent Trust company does the trust work such as taxes and distributions. Edelman does the investing. Worked out Excellent for us. Both charge fees so I could do it elsewhere with one overall lower fee but it works great and adding that Trust to our regular portfolio lowers the fees overall because of the increased value of the totality of the investments.

He ---and everyone in the office---his wife is often there and his son has joined the practice as well as another partner, Terry, is very professional yet personable at the same time. George takes the time to really get to know your particular situation and it's clear he remembers you from year to year.He has clearly---and quite patiently answered all my questions each year and made sure we understood the ramifications of the financial choices we make. The first year we met with George, he also did some advising on our financial situation and really was able to pinpoint what we want and need to do for our financial security in the coming years. Of course, that was before the current economic downturn, but he has been very helpful in keeping us on track in spite of the less desirable economy. I highly recommend George Englert and his friendly offices to anyone in need of financial advising or tax help. You'll be glad you did. His fees are quite reasonable.

It has been so helpful to work with Kevin these past couple of months! When my husband and…read more I were initially searching for some support with our finances, we were looking for someone who could meet us at our level and explain financial topics in ways we could understand ( HSAs, Roth IRAs, Traditional IRAs, HYSAs, etc.) We were looking for someone who help us understand our current financial picture and whether we were saving enough to be able to retire at our desired age, be able to enjoy our current hobbies of traveling, and pay for medical expenses we will have. As a woman who got married later and came to my marriage with assets, I wanted to make sure I was making smart financial decisions with regards to my investments, savings, and spending habits as I know I will take home less money than my husband. We found that in Kevin and are so grateful for his knowledge and guidance. Kevin has helped me understand my financial portfolio and adjust my investment choices to match my financial goals. He has a unique approach to providing guidance with regards to finances which involves front loading the work together with weekly meetings the first month followed by check-ins and continued financial information through articles on various financial topics. We highly recommend working with Kevin if you are looking for solid guidance around your finances.

I knew that I was not confident in how to…read morehandle money and the stressors of bills and student loans after graduating and starting my first full time job. I also didn't know if I was being too hasty in pursuing a financial advisor when I was just starting out; was the investment in a financial planner worth it considering I had little assets, a moderate paycheck, and student loan debt? Since I was rather anxious in not wanting to make mistakes that could impact the rest of my financial life, I decided to look into Kevin. His website drew me in with his focus on millennials and the unique financial challenges we face. He seemed real and truthful which is what I was looking for above all else. Someone to give me real, concrete advice, and not take advantage of me considering my limited understanding in "adult" finances. After my first free consultation I knew I was in good hands and that his website accurately reflected his values. Although it was a financial investment to get a financial planner, Kevin has helped me set up a future that is beyond worth the money I spent/spend. We continue to have check-ins as my financial situation changes and he never holds judgement when I need a concept explained or broken down considering money has a lot of jargon. I now feel confident in my plans for paying off my student debt, investing in my future, and living a normal life all at the same time. I recommend him to all my friends and coworkers when conversations turn to finances as we all navigate this often challenging money world.

The receptionist offered for me to stand at the counter and open an account online, but a further discussion had to be by appointment only. No walk ins are accepted here at all.
