Peter Gellman

Highland Park, New Jersey, 08904
advisor

Member Since 2011

My top priority is helping clients clarify and achieve their financial goals. From investing strategy to retirement to estate planning, clients are unique and deserve customized solutions and unbiased expertise, not sales pitches. I taught at Oxford and Princeton for 7 years before founding Palmerston in 1997. My fee-only, research-driven approach to serving clients as an advocate and coach is different from many other advisors (see palmerstongroup.com for detailed information). This approach includes: Building successful relationships by listening, asking & responding to clients; unbiased fee-only services based on client values & objectives, not sale of products; & serving clients using not only my ideas, but the best I can borrow.
