To find a financial advisor that can best meet your needs, create a plan that will help you gather the information you need to make an informed choice.

Even if you have the time and inclination to take on your own financial planning and investing, there are situations for which hiring a financial advisor may be a better option.

Cliché as it sounds, all financial advisors aren’t the same. Objectivity, experience, values, and access to LPL Financial’s vast resources are among the factors that we believe set LPL advisors apart.

To determine if an LPL Financial advisor is the best financial advisor for you, think about what you need and then create a profile of your ideal advisor.
