What Our Clients Are Saying

  • When we decided to start offering a 401(k) to employees, I wasn’t sure where to start.  
    Thankfully, Platinum Financial Associates was able to help us design our plan features based on what we needed, and they worked directly with the third party, so I didn’t have to. Diane then came out to our office to explain everything to our employees. I was impressed by her ability to explain something complex in an easy-to-understand way. Diane and Susan meet with our employees regularly to make sure their investment goals are in line with their portfolio, and their staff is available for questions at any time.
    We still go to them every time an employee becomes eligible, and they’ve been so helpful.

    Marissa W.

  • As part of a married couple and now as a widow, I have been so pleased with the financial support services provided by Platinum Financial Associates for nearly 20 years. Their guidance assisted tremendously as we planned how to save for retirement, manage the expenses of skilled care for my late husband, and maximize my retirement income and savings in what has been such an interesting time.

    Susan O.

  • I have been very pleased with the service and commitment that I've received from Sue, Diane and everyone at Platinum Financial Associates for many years. They are always very helpful answering questions and researching whenever necessary. We highly recommend Platinum Financial Associates.

    Richard J.

  • I have been working with Platinum Financial Associates for over 10 years. I have been very impressed with their commitment to my financial needs. They listen to our long term goals and work with us to put a plan in place to help us achieve them. The group at Platinum is very professional, dedicated and responsive to our needs. They have extended office hours which makes it easy to meet with them on a regular basis.
    Overall, I am very pleased with Platinum and have recommended them to a number of my friends already.
