What our clients say
Paul Vaillancourt has been our family’s financial planner for over 20 years now and I can trust him completely. Building trust is an important part of the consultant-client relationship and Paul is top in his class. What really impressed me was Paul’s fixation on total transparency and complete objectivity with respect to my interests and my family’s long-term financial health. Paul provides complete financial advice including personal wealth management, debt management, life insurance, estate planning, and even provided a cost benefit analysis for our next car purchase versus lease. A true one-stop advisor.

Paul and his team took over our portfolio when we retired. Through a number of discussions, he carefully explained ideas for our investments and ensured that we understood his strategies. When our parents passed away, Paul and his team offered creative investment strategies for the additional funds with the goal of guaranteeing a comfortable future for our son.
- The Wojitas Family
I first met Paul and his team about 10 years ago. Upon entering I felt very welcomed by his team and the office was very comfortable. Paul came out with a big smile on his face and a handshake that told me he meant business. I liked that right away. He knows his stuff which makes me secure in the knowledge I do not have to. I do not worry at all. He is very confident and unlike myself, he does not panic. You can tell he loves what he does and he is good at it. He and his staff are a phone call or email away. Very responsive. I would highly and, without question, recommend Paul Vaillancourt. You would be in excellent hands.
- Carol R.
Many thanks to Paul for his help in getting us on track and keeping us on the right path. I’m not sure I took the opportunity to let him know that our previous discussion with respect to retirement planning has provided much-needed peace of mind. We know that I can pull the plug on work at any time and we’ll be able to live a pretty comfortable life. At the end of the day, that confidence in the safety net we’ve built is a critical element in getting through some days.
- Mark & Micheline B.
As soon as I met with Paul, any trepidation I had felt almost immediately evaporated. Not only is this man one of the most congenial people that I’ve ever met, but he is also the consummate professional. By the end of our meeting he had suggested and implemented several beneficial changes to my portfolio, estate plan and insurance policies. I came away from that meeting feeling confident and assured about my future. I have recommended Paul’s services to several family members and they share the same esteem and confidence that I have in Paul.
