I’ve worked with Mills Wealth Advisors since 2015, and I truly have nothing but positive things to say about my experience with their team. Over more than a decade, they have consistently provided thoughtful, straightforward advice and a level of transparency that I deeply value.
I’ve always felt that their recommendations are made with my best interests and long-term goals in mind—not simply based on what is happening in the market at the moment. They take the time to explain the reasoning behind their advice, answer questions honestly, and make sure I’m comfortable with the decisions we make.
Most importantly, I’ve seen meaningful growth in my assets over the years while feeling confident that there is a thoughtful strategy behind how they are being managed. That combination of results, trust, transparency, and personal service is why I’ve remained with Mills Wealth Advisors since 2015 and would confidently recommend them to anyone looking for a financial advisor they can build a long-term relationship with.
Although I have only been investing for a few years, I have known Mike Mills as a family friend my entire life. There is not anyone I would trust more with my finances. He is one of the most trustworthy people I've had the pleasure of knowing, and that's the kind of person I want handling my finances. Everyone at Mills Wealth Advisors has been nothing short of amazing - friendly, personable, organized, and very well educated in their fields. I cannot recommend Mills Wealth Advisors enough.
Thank you Jake for your review. We are glad we can help share what we have learned over the last 3 decades. It has been our honor to work with your family now for 25 years. High value long-term relationships like yours is key to how we deliver wise financial advice that optimizes family wealth. It is very rewarding to watch goals (like paying for college get accomplished) and now to watch you succeed in your career.

My wife and I started working with Mills Wealth in the middle of last year, and it has made our lives much easier. The transfer of assets was handled primarily by them and was very streamlined. Our advisor Emily has been fantastic to work with and is very knowledgeable, thoughtful, and great at helping us think through our long term financial plan. Crystal has also been incredibly helpful and responsive whenever we’ve needed support. They were especially valuable during the home buying process as first-time buyers, which gave us a lot more confidence along the way. Highly recommend the Mills Wealth team!
Brice, Thank you so much for your feedback. I believe we have the best team in this business and both Emily and Crystal are shining examples of knowledge thst comes from experience, relentless attention to detail, and responsiveness that comes from loving our clients. Thanks for validating what we have worked hard to build.
