I have been a client of Abraham for over 7 years, We met in a non-business setting and I was quite impressed with his knowledge and resourcefulness which led me to solicit his services. Abraham is a very professional, well-rounded financial adviser. His approach is consultative, focused on understanding one's priorities and working with them to protect and grow their investments throughout market volatilities. He is very consistent in his approach and does a very good job in managing emotional financial decisions by providing factual data keeping focus on protection and growth. I highly recommend working with Abraham.

Typically financial advisors find a way to make you feel like you are deliberately choosing to make bad decisions. Lakshmi is the exception. She will sit patiently with you and go through your monthly budget to find painless ways for you to make your money work for you. She is never too busy or in a rush and gives your small funds the attention normally reserved for people of high net worth.

Lakshmi has been supporting my financial growth initiatives for over 6 years. In those 6 years not only have we had a positive partnership but one of absolute trust. Lakshmi takes the time to truly understand her clients and their risk profile. She keeps her clients up to date with the latest market trends and exposes them to industry leaders by including us in high-level meetings. I've never felt pressured to follow a 'trend' or 'flavour of the month,' rather Lakshmi relies on sound data to objectively educate her clients. I would recommend Lakshmi to anyone looking to expand their portfolio and gain someone on their financial team that they trust 100%.
