Michael Kelley is not your "typical" financial advisor.

He has worked with multiple firms over the past 10 years and has witnessed the good, the bad and the very ugly within this industry. After many years of seeing clients' financial plans underserved and products oversold by insurance agents and salespeople holding themselves out to be financial advisors, he decided to build his own firm, Kelley Financial Planning. Mike built his firm from scratch, using only the best technology and practices he has picked up along his career. He believes that the only true way an advisor can be a fiduciary and work under the least amount of conflicted interest is to be a Fee-Only advisor. Mike has signed a Fiduciary Oath that requires him to ALWAYS act in the best interest of his clients. He can NEVER receive commissions and; therefore, he has no incentive to sell products. Mike is compensated solely by his clients. Most of his clients prefer Comprehensive Planning and to pay him on a monthly basis, but he also has the ability to simply manage their investments or to build them a One-Time financial plan to ensure they are on the right track.
