THE APRIEM ADVISORS STORY

Financial Advisors in Orange County

We’re the financial advisors in Orange County families have relied on for over 28 years. As an Irvine wealth management firm, we’ve helped Orange County families navigate life’s biggest financial transitions: retirement, inheritance, divorce, and loss. What started as a commitment to doing right by a handful of local families has grown into a firm trusted by more than 1,000 households nationwide, without ever losing the personal, relationship-first approach that built it.

We’re independent — not tied to any bank, broker-dealer, or product line — so every recommendation we make is built around what’s right for your family, not what’s profitable for us.

About Us

Financial Advisors in Orange County: Meet the Team

Behind every relationship at Apriem is a team of 10 dedicated financial advisors and 18 team members in all, each bringing a genuine commitment to your family’s goals. Our advisors hold some of the industry’s most respected credentials — CFP®, AIF®, ChFC®, CIPM, MBA, CFA®, and CRPC® — but what truly sets them apart is how personally they show up for the Orange County families they serve.

Why We’re the Financial Advisors in Orange County, CA Families Trust

We lead with relationship, not spreadsheets. Our clients often tell us they want an advisor who takes the lead on the details, not more data to interpret themselves, so every conversation starts with your life and goals, not a product pitch. As we like to say internally, we treat your family like our family.
