Hear from Our Clients
Posted on Google Lesley CarrellTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We’ve been with Cascade Financial Strategies almost 7 years. After a bad experience with a previous Financial Advisor in Vancouver, WA, it was a relief to find a fiduciary advisor. I especially appreciate their focus on Socially, responsible investing. We told them what types of companies and industries we did not want to invest in, and our portfolio has performed well. Jack and his team are friendly, knowledgeable, and responsive.Posted on Google Chris NielsenTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I am so pleased with the results we have seen since bringing our retirement savings to Cascade Financial. Jack’s expertise with our retirement funds has been incredible and I couldn’t be happier with the way our retirement has grown. Even in these uncertain times, the accounts continue to grow. They have been extremely responsive to our questions and concerns.Posted on Google Tom LebsackTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

Thank you!Posted on Google Robin SlocumTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. After cycling through a couple of financial advisors who weren’t meeting our hopes and expectations, we found Jack Schniepp, who is wonderful. He has done a great job for us in every way - managing our portfolio according to our ages and needs and comfort with risk, providing us with software to see for ourselves how we’re doing with our goals, and able to communicate complex economic and market strategies in a manner that is clear and straightforward so that we can understand what he’s doing and what our options are. We highly recommend him without hesitation.Posted on Google Catherine CranstonTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

He has also managed my business account even to the point of exceeding our expectations. He and Julie return calls quickly and and work efficiently.
