Helping You Navigate To A Secure Financial Future -your personal financial compass 

Randal Poirier, ChFC, of Independence Financial Partners, is the trusted financial advisor of choice for high net worth individuals, small businesses, and non-profit organizations in Newport County, RI and South Eastern Massachusetts. 

My financial planning services are fee-based and completely objective. My recommendations are based on your goals.  However, my firm is backed by the John Hancock Financial Network, which gives me the advantage of access to best-in-class solutions from many of the country's most well-respected financial services companies.

Once I've completed your written financial plan, you may choose to continue working with me as your advisor or implement the recommendations on your own.  I provide full disclosure of how I am compensated and a complete menu of advisor-client relationship options.  I also provide a thorough financial review every six months to help you avoid wealth erosion and maintain financial independence.
