After a ten year career in law enforcement and over sixteen years in the financial services industry R. Neil Stikeleather does what many of his competitors won't do: he tells you the truth.  He's not a portfolio manager. He's not an expert at picking individual securities and managing portfolios for you. R. Neil Stikeleather is a Wealth Management Advisor. The value he brings to his clients is not through trading stocks in their accounts daily. The fact is that affluent clients in today's complex and fast moving markets need a team of experts making decisions about the daily activity in their portfolio that is consistent with their risk tolerance and financial goals. That is exactly what R. Neil Stikeleather makes available to his clients through proffesionally managed account portfolios. Decisions about his clients' portfolios are made by people whose expertise lie in analyzing companies, mutual funds, market conditions, and a host of other factors that directly impact the risk and return potential to the client.  Before a client can effectively utilize these resources however they must have a plan. That is the value that R. Neil Stikeleather brings.  He specializes in constructing personalized strategies for individuals and families that focus on achieving their financial goals and address all of the pieces of their financial well being: asset allocation in their portfolio, saving for education funding and retirement, life and long term care insurance analysis to protect their family and estate from the unexpected, debt management, and utilization of the world class banking resources of Bank of America to simplify their life. Whether you're working with a Financial Advisor now, managing your own portfolio, or you haven't yet taken the steps to address financial planning needs in your life, consider meeting with R. Neil Stikeleather and his team to explore the opportunities available to you. They work hard to build lasting relationships with their clients that give them the peace of mind that comes from a well crafted financial plan and the best financial resources available anywhere.
