Our Story
Among his peers, Michael was an early adopter of the fiduciary advisor model.
When Michael Stalker began his career in 1983, advice was typically obtained through stockbrokers and involved buying or selling securities. He found it unsatisfying because of its limitations in creating wealth for his clients and its inherent conflicts of interest.
In response, in 1991, he founded his family wealth management practice in Newport Beach, California. Today, MCS Family Wealth Advisors is one of the few fee-only financial advisor firms in Oregon. We offer fee-only financial planning and asset management services in both Bend, Oregon and Eugene, Oregon.
