Our experience with Wiser Wealth has been extremely "comforting" which says a lot for a firm that is talking with you about your money. From the initial introduction meeting with Casey to our follow-up meetings with William and Grace, they have been professional, personable and efficient in mapping out a pre-retirement plan. No hard sells (as they are strictly a fiduciary) and really focused on what would be best for us as their client. Everything presented to us were recommendations, not scare-tactic directives. From watching their YouTube clips and listening to their podcast, they present themselves as genuine and transparent. We feel better prepared as we approach retirement and hope to continue the relationship under their wealth management product. Highly recommended!

I have been widowed for 2 years. My husband always handled finances perfectly. I could never do that so my brother recommended Wiser Wealth. I don’t even have to think or worry about anything. It’s all taken care of and I’ve had a great year.

We did fee‑only advising with Wiser, and the entire process was frictionless and enjoyable. We met with several financial advisors in the Marietta area, and many were either too focused on selling products or only interested in AUM. From the first call, Wiser was helpful, responsive, and got us scheduled quickly.

Shawna and Alex ran our meetings exceptionally well. They were clear about what information they needed, explained our options in plain language, and walked through the benefits and risks of different approaches based on our goals and timeline. Our conversations went beyond just investments to include insurance and estate planning, and we always felt treated as a family—not a sales opportunity.

We couldn’t be happier with our experience and highly recommend the Wiser team.
