“Partnering with a firm such as Mariner Wealth Advisors allows us the opportunity to continue our goal of being the trusted advisor for the clients and families we serve.”

The latest deal follows Mariner’s acquisition of Michigan-based Emerson Wealth last month. Emerson Wealth expanded the firm’s Midwest footprint and added its second office in the greater Detroit area and third in Michigan.

In 2021, Mariner sealed a number of deals, including that of Savant Investment Group, Vaughn Wealth Management, and AdvicePeriod.
