Case Study: A Father-Daughter Team’s Breakaway from Edward Jones to LPL Financial

After years with Edward Jones, this father-daughter advisory team knew they had outgrown the limitations of their firm. They wanted greater independence, more investment flexibility, and full control over their careers. But with limited transparency around transition deals, they weren’t sure if they were getting the best offer.

That’s where we stepped in.

Through expert negotiation and real market data, we secured a 20% increase in their transition package—landing them the largest deal ever paid to an Edward Jones team at that time. With the right strategy and support, they made the leap to LPL Financial with confidence, knowing they had maximized their opportunity.

Case Study: Finding the Right Fit—An Advisor’s Strategic Transition

This advisor wasn’t looking for just any move—he wanted the right move. While his firm had served him well for years, staffing challenges and firm limitations made it clear that a change was necessary to take his practice to the next level.

We helped him cut through the noise, curating a short list of high-value opportunities—including unique, under-the-radar firms in his local market. With detailed financial analysis and strategic guidance, we ensured he had a clear understanding of his transition package and the confidence to move forward.

Today, he’s in a firm that aligns with his leadership style, business goals, and vision for long-term success.
