A FEE-BASED WEALTH MANAGEMENT & FINANCIAL PLANNING FIRM

Hargrave & Associates LLC is a California registered investment advisor located in Riverside, CA.  We offer fee-based  financial advice to individuals and businesses. Financial planning and investment management are offered on a fee-only basis, for which we are compensated by billing hourly, project or fixed fee, or as a percentage of assets under management.  We are also licensed to provide risk management advice and insurance products for which we can receive commissions.  In all cases, we assume the role of the client's fiduciary, in that we always place the interests of the client above our own.
 
The  investment advisor representatives of Hargrave & Associates LLC are professionally trained & licensed and have adopted a strict code of ethics as enforced by the CFP® Board of Standards.

While certainly not unique, our firm differentiates itself from most financial advisory firms and brokers by practicing without accepting commissions on investment products.  This enables us to avoid most of the inherent conflicts of interest associated with the sale of securities.  Our goals and incentives are aligned with yours as we work together to implement a custom plan to achieve your financial goals.

We invite you to look around our website and take advantage of the many tools we offer. There are many financial calculators, articles written by our associates and other tools available for you to use free of charge.
