Listen Later

Looking to hire a financial planner with retirement & tax planning expertise?

My team and I have availability for 25 Discovery Meetings over the next 8 weeks.

If you're seeking professional retirement planning help, we would love to have a conversation!

👉 Learn more about our process and grab one of the 25 meeting slots.

We intentionally limit the number of new clients we take on each year.

This ensures we can provide each family with highly customized investment, retirement, and tax planning services.

Once these 25 meetings are scheduled, we will not have availability to meet with new clients until later this year.

Schedule your Discovery Meeting.

Today I'm sharing the essential steps for evaluating and selecting the right financial advisor for your unique situation. 

Specifically, I cover 5 important things:

► How to identify and document your financial challenges, needs, and goals before starting your search

► Critical questions to ask yourself about the type of professional you want

► Guidance for conducting background checks

► Non-obvious questions to ask potential advisors

► The importance of a well-defined evaluation process (and why you shouldn't rush your decision)

You'll learn how to navigate through the sea of 300,000+ financial advisors to find the right one for you.

Whether you want a short-term or long-term engagement, this episode provides actionable steps to help you make the right choice.
