What Sets Us Apart

Holistic View

We believe true “wealth” is much more than just money. And good financial planning must take a broader view than dollars and cents and pie charts. We believe, at its core, our job is to understand you and all the things besides money that enrich your life (family, health, faith, values, experiences)… and then help you manage your financial world in a way that best serves these ultimately important things. And bonus – by letting us do the heavy lifting, we give you more time to enjoy those important things! Check this out to learn more...

A Real Financial Plan

Most of our clients have compiled plenty of financial “stuff” when we first meet. But they rarely have a real financial plan. Our approach integrates all of your key areas of planning (retirement, investments, insurance, taxes, estate, education, etc.) and leaves you with confidence that your plan is pointing you in the direction of your goals.

We also review with you regularly to course correct when life happens differently from the plan. And we leverage technology to make sure we stay on the same page. Check out this video to learn how...

Trusted Guides

At The Lyon Group we partner with clients with whom we can build a long-term relationship and serve as their financial guide all along life’s journey… from first child, to career changes, to making that final student loan payment, to retirement and beyond. And for some client families, we’ve done that over several generations. It’s quite an honor.

We practice fee-based financial planning that ensures our clients best interest is always at the forefront of our recommendations. We have a fiduciary duty to put your best interests ahead of all else. But it’s much more than a legal duty. Putting our clients first is part of our moral fiber.

Being a trusted guide is part of our DNA. Our founder, Bob Lyon, he rose swiftly to the rank of navigator during his service in WWII by telling it like it is. Click here to read the navigator story

A Proven Process

Financial planning is a fun and interesting blend of math, engineering, art, psychology and more. We love the authentic relationships we get to build with our clients. And we know that to get the best results, we need to follow a systematic, objective approach that seeks first to clarify the current situation and objectives before implementing changes. The Financial Navigation System is our proprietary process that helps clients grow, secure, enjoy and distribute their wealth, in alignment with their goals and values.

The Navigator Story

It happened nearly 70 years ago in the South Pacific during the Second World War. A young ensign was fresh out of Midshipman’s School where he had been studying a specific type of mathematics – Spherical Trigonometry. Naval officers needed to know this type of math so they could figure out their position on the globe before Global Positioning Satellites were invented.

So one night while not on duty, the young ensign was practicing his skills from the deck of the ship. He used an instrument called a marine sextant to determine the angle of the stars relative to sea level. The readings were then used to plot the position of the ship. What he found was that his coordinates did not match those that were officially posted. In other words, the ship was off course – significantly.
