“I’m not very knowledgeable about the market so I had invested our money for years with another firm that basically parked my money in mutual funds and annuities. At 55 now and realizing that our retirement goals were not being met, I was fortunate enough to meet Rich and Jim a couple of years ago. Rich and I sat down, discussed his investment strategies and how they could meet our goals. I can say that I could not be happier with the progress made in a short period of time and would particularly call out the outstanding communication on a regular basis in terms of my account and why moves are made when they are. Honestly, I would give 10 stars if I could.”

“I had the great fortune to meet and work with Jim while settling my uncle’s estate. My late uncle had been a top executive with a leading Fortune 500 and had picked and used Jim as a trusted financial adviser for years. Needless to say, it was a large and complicated estate but Jim’s keen knowledge of the financial institutions, his honesty and diligent response to my specific needs helped settle this estate. He has been excellent to work with and I can’t say enough good things about his knowledge, professionalism and just a great guy to work with. I would highly recommend him to anyone for financial guidance.”

“I have been with Jim Hirst as my Financial Advisor since 2007. During that time his business has grown. I have all faith in Jim and the people that work with him. He has never steered me wrong with my investments.”

“I’ve been working with Jim for quite a few years now. Times were quite hard before I started working with him. My mom passed away, I lost my job of 15 years, and I got divorced all within 3 months’ time. I had no clue as to how to handle everything at once. Then, the inheritance came, and I was overwhelmed with how to invest. My brother and I sat down with Jim on the phone, and they figured out what the best plan of action was for me. Jim assured my brother and I that he could confidently find a fit tailor made for me. I haven’t looked back since. He keeps me updated with all information and updates as needed. This is the one area in my life that I am comfortable in, and I have total trust in Jim to handle my financial situation.”
