We believe the most influential factor in successful wealth management isn't share price, dividend growth or even investment selection. Rather, it's your life, your family, your aspirations and your needs. These are the true drivers of the work we do, the basis of the strategies we build with you, and it is against these strategies that we measure our success.
When you care about people, they know it. They perceive it in your words, your deeds, and your follow-through. They witness your presence in their lives, during highs and lows, triumphs and challenges. They know you are there for them now and on the path that lies ahead.
At Eckerline Julius Wealth Management, we believe the care we bring to our relationships is the factor that most differentiates us. We have decades of experience, advanced education, designations, accolades, and technical insight. You’d expect nothing less. But in selecting a guide for you, your family, your business, and your charitable interests, we believe our heart is the deciding factor. We’re “all in” when it comes to your success—as you define it.
We understand that “wealth” encompasses so much. Your balance sheet is an important part of your wealth, of course, but true wealth extends into many aspects of your life – the happiness of your family members, the opportunities you encounter, the security of your finances, the stability of your health, the well-being of your community, and your sense of purpose in life.
We’re gratified to have served some client families for more than thirty years, spanning three generations. And we’re proud that client referrals are our primary source of new relationships. Our energy and passion for our work continue, invigorated by the caliber of our client relationships. We serve good, kind people who want to derive meaning and impact from their wealth, not just for themselves, but for their loved ones and cherished causes.
We’re grateful to the individuals and families who have allowed us to be an important part of their lives. We invite you to read about the mindset and values we bring to our work and encourage you to reach out to us as we continue to chart a path forward.
Significant wealth is often accompanied by complexity. Clients don’t simply have more wealth—they have more options and decision points.
At the Eckerline Julius Wealth Management Group, we are deeply skilled in unwinding wealth’s complexities. We work with high-net-worth and ultra-high-net-worth individuals, families, and their businesses, helping them deploy, preserve, and transfer their wealth more effectively. Clients come to us from varied paths. Some are senior executives or professionals. Others are business owners and entrepreneurs. And still others are businesses and institutions that want to to build organizational capacity or enhance their mission fulfillment.
Our suite of services is integrated by design. We believe that wealth functions more effectively when a client’s overall picture is considered. That framework includes varied wealth disciplines, like investment management, banking and lending, strategy and planning, trust and estate planning services, insurance, and philanthropy. But it also includes other “once-off” questions that arise, requiring a steady hand and persistent effort.
We look to be a single source for financial answers—whatever the issue or need. We know that wealth issues are people issues, family issues, and life issues. We are gratified to ease someone’s burden, connect a person to the right resource, resolve a long-standing concern, or simply listen when someone needs an empathetic ear. We are Advisors and Associates, but also mothers, fathers, sons, daughters, siblings, and community members. Our human touch, we believe, firmly grounds our work to the real world, allowing us to have an impact on clients whom we deeply value as people.
