Goepper Burkhardt LLC was established in January of 2003 in Greenville, S.C. Our mission is to provide fee-only financial planning and investment management based on a fiduciary standard of care. We primarily serve retirees and pre-retirees. Our service is provided by a team of credentialed and experienced advisors.
We help you plan for the retirement you've dreamed of - one that's full of the pursuits that make you happy and, equally important, one that's planned and lived on your own terms. Whether your focus is relaxation or rejuvenation, pursuing new passions or rededicating yourself to old hobbies, traveling the world or staying close to your grandkids, retirement should be fun, joyful and stress-free. Whatever your goals for retirement may be, our financial planning processes are designed to ensure you are guided and cared for every step of the way.
