Firm Description
Oak Wealth Advisors provides special needs planning and collaborates with other specialists and advisors to provide comprehensive advice and support to families with special needs members.
Unlike most financial services firms, we are fiduciaries. We are obligated by law to put our clients interests first. We do not sell insurance and we have no financial ties to any investment firms or financial products. Therefore, our advice is independent and objective.
We take joy in assisting families in maximizing their financial opportunities and proactively planning with them for the challenges to come.
