Dealing with debt can be extremely stressful and scary. Michael and his team made going through a…read moredifficult time so much better. Michael came up with thoughtful, innovative ideas to handle my situation and helped me out immeasurably. His experience and relationships working on 4000 debt cases showed. He came up with an affordable, tailored strategy that helped me out of a very tough spot. Most of all, Michael cares about his clients and it shows. I cannot recommend Michael and the Financial Counseling Center strongly enough. Highest recommendation. Good people you can trust.

Feeling financially stuck? Overwhelmed with credit card debt? High interest rate loans…read moresuffocating any progress? Insomnia? 6 months ago I was staying up all night worried about my family's financial future. I felt like I was going to have a heart attack or stroke from the stress. So, how did we get to this point? Business was affected by Covid. My wife was laid off so our income was slashed in half. Started racking up credit card debt. Paying the minimum. Then, there was the financial burden of taking care of elderly parents. I tried debt consolidation but it would take multiple years to pay down the overwhelming mountain of debt compounding like a pounding headache of misery. I felt trapped in a circle of debt, barely getting by month to month with cost of living going up. Then I met with Michael to pick his brain and discuss my options. Our best strategy was to file for chapter 7 bankruptcy. To get a fresh start. This was the best choice for us. Highly recommend talking to Michael and Tamara to just review your options. Worst case at least you will have some clarity of what solutions are out there. Michael held our hands and walked us through everything. Tamara does most of the heavy lifting. She is amazing. Much respect to Tamara's patience and diligence. She told us exactly what was necessary to file so the process was easy and smooth. I spent many hours to get all my docs in order per her request. So, dont be lazy and get your stuff in order. John is the confident lawyer. Straight shooter. Decades of experience with the trustees. Highly recommend a lawyer to file instead of trying to do it yourself. 4 months later. Discharged over $200K of debt. Now I can sleep at night like a baby. Thank you so much to FCC. I feel like I got a second chance. God bless America for having a system that allows qualified debtors to get a "fresh start". Much gratitude.

A few years ago, after receiving an inheritance, I spent a great deal of time researching and…read moreinterviewing fiduciary financial planners. Since we had never needed one before, my husband and I wanted to be sure we were making thoughtful decisions for our future. We ultimately chose Patrick, and we couldn't be happier with that decision. His focus on sustainable investing made him stand out even more and aligned well with our values. 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.

We needed someone we could trust, that can help organize our finances, set up some estate planning, and overall improve our financial literacy. We're so happy to have found Impact Fiduciary and to work with Chris whose always made sure we are set up for success. He's extremely knowledgable and patient in walking us through what financial decisions need to be made, and exactly what we sign up for as we look into certain investments. He's great at keeping up with us, even when we tend to lose sight of our goals or meetings. We've been fortunate to see a lot of growth after working with Chris, and it's assuring knowing we're investing with those who have similar values as us. Looking forward to working with them for years to come!

Over the course of six…read morethoughtful and intentional sessions, she helped strengthen not only our finances, but also our mindset and confidence around money. With each meeting, we made meaningful progress. Michelle helped us see clearly where our spending was going and guided us in creating a realistic, sustainable budget that still allows us to enjoy our lives while saving toward our biggest goal--purchasing our dream home. What once felt far off now feels achievable much sooner than we expected. Perhaps the most valuable part of the experience was the confidence and clarity Michelle helped us build as a couple. Our conversations around finances are now more productive, aligned, and positive than ever before. We're only a week out from our final session, and already feel the impact of the work we did together. I'm excited to look back in 3 months, 6 months, and a year from now and see how far we've come thanks to Michelle's guidance. I can't recommend her highly enough.

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!

My husband is a musician who does lots of gig/freelance work and we wanted to get professional eyes on our taxes as our situation has become more complex. We had an intro call with Sandy who assured us she could help with our situation. We then decided to take the next step and provided all of our documents within their portal on March 3rd. After submitting we heard nothing back from them for weeks and so we called towards the end of the month to check in. When we did this they only then started asking us for additional documents and wanted us to reformat all profits and losses within their specific document formats despite us already providing these 4 weeks prior in our own format. We asked them if they could just use our existing documents and they said that would be an additional bookkeeper service of $300. At this point we were very frustrated that they took an entire month to tell us all of this after we submitted initial documents. We ended up filing with an alternative.

My husband and I recently reached out to Earl from Wealth Arc Investments to explore setting up a…read morefinancial advising session, and we couldn't be more impressed with the experience. From the moment we connected, Earl was incredibly generous with his time, spending a full hour walking through our unique financial situation in detail. He took the time to truly understand where we're at, asked thoughtful questions, and offered a wide range of insightful recommendations tailored specifically to us. What really stood out was his ability to clearly explain technical terms and concepts that had confused us for years. By the end of the call, we felt more confident and informed than ever before. To our surprise, Earl didn't charge us for this initial session, which speaks volumes about his character and commitment to helping people. When we asked about his rates moving forward, we found them to be very reasonable, and we absolutely plan to return once we've implemented his advice. You can easily tell once you meet with Earl that he is genuine, highly knowledgeable, and truly cares about the people he works with. If you've been considering working with a financial advisor, we highly recommend giving him a call. He's an incredible resource and a wealth of information.

It's clear that Earl genuinely wants to help people and is not just in it for himself. That level of integrity and generosity really stood out to me! I will absolutely be referring others to him and will not hesitate to reach out again if and when I need more guidance. Thank you Earl!
