Working with Kyle Clark has been a standout experience from start to finish…read more After a deeply frustrating experience with another financial advisor program, I was cautious about starting over, but working with Kyle has been a complete 180. From the start, Kyle was thorough and patient. He walked me through transferring all of my existing funds, helped me establish clear savings goals, and gave me concrete, actionable guidance I could actually act on. What impressed me most was his timing: all of this unfolded during a period of significant personal transition for me, and he handled every step with professionalism and calm. The results have spoken for themselves. My portfolio has reached record highs, and for the first time, I genuinely feel in control of my financial future. If you're looking for an advisor who is competent and steady under pressure, I can't recommend Kyle highly enough!

Which ones do I combine? Am I investing too aggressively or not enough? What the heck is this fund? Nick Licouris did a fantastic job - we met twice, and he mapped out a detailed roadmap for me to get my financial house in order over the next few years, explaining everything in plain English anyone could understand. He confirmed I was headed in the right direction, but also pointed out a few things I was unaware of. He also correctly predicted how many hours it would take, so the cost was no surprise. I am very, VERY pleased with the results and I've recommended him to others and will probably hire him again, once I've executed the plan.

Living paycheck to paycheck--despite having solid incomes and no kids--was frustrating and stressful. We initially expected to walk away with a simple budget. What we got was so much more.

More importantly, she set us up for long-term success and a stronger financial future. We truly can't recommend her enough.

That showed awareness and ability to multitask to take care of customers properly. Thank you, Todd!

I have had to ask a representative to close out of my account prior to leaving they left it on the big screen. What the hell? They just got sued for a data breach. My last in person visit. The representative couldn't open a roth for me so i could have pretty much saved myself a trip and done it on my own with a representative over the phone which is what i did while in the branch. The rep was in the room with me and we had to call the fidelity customer service line. I guess he was good as far as answering questions while in the room. Again not comfortable how lax everyone seemed to be with my account. What really bothered me was i caught the guy looking at my chest. Made me really uncomfortable and doubt i will go back to that branch due to that. Now I will review the service over the phone and their preditory marketing practices. I have received numerous calls from their reps saying they have looked into my account and want to discuss my investment options. This is insane. So anyone can look into my account from fidelity with sensitive info. My privacy is being violated. I have asked to be put on the do not call list and i'm still getting calls followed up by emails that I haven't responded. The poor judgement makes me not trust them with my money. I'm very disappointed with them. They don't take privacy seriously and feel like they can borderline stalk clients which is what i feel like. Like i'm dodging telemarketers i don't want to deal with. It's harassment!

Since we had never needed one before, my husband and I wanted to be sure we were making thoughtful decisions for our future.

Patrick is not only highly knowledgeable and professional, but also approachable, thoughtful, and easy to talk with. Nearly three years later, we remain extremely pleased with both his guidance and the results. The addition of Rachel Strong to the team has been another positive development. She has been wonderful to work with as well, and together they provide outstanding service and support.

After three calls to them they are telling me to fill out a form and send it to the IRS with a note requesting an exemption from the penalty because of Wells Fargo Advisor's negligence.
