You define your goals. We define a plan. Together, we define your future.
At Define Financial, we operate a little differently than the large brokerage firms. As an SEC registered firm, we are required to act in a fiduciary capacity - the highest standard of care. Put simply, our clients’ interests must be ahead of ours at all times. In addition, our fee structure is 100% transparent and we never accept compensation in the form of commissions. The only form of compensation we receive comes directly from our clients through a fee schedule that best suits their needs. We work with our clients, on the same side of the table, to help simplify and enhance the quality of their lives.
