Our Relationship is Powered by Partnerships
At Schmerling Financial Group, a relationship with you is our most important priority.

We work with a number of partners behind the scenes to provide industry-leading account security, technology solutions and expanded product selection to effectively implement your financial plan. You will likely see their names on paperwork from time to time, so we want to help you better understand these relationships.
Avantax Wealth Management®, the financial services firm that is one of the pioneers of tax-smart investing, is our chosen partner to support our comprehensive financial planning services. They complement our knowledge with the additional technology, research and wealth management insights to help us identify opportunities to meet your financial goals.
