Expert Wealth Management for Every Stage of Life

Are you looking for a financial advisor in Ottawa who provides personalized guidance through the complexities of financial planning, retirement, or major life changes?

Whether you’re preparing for retirement, managing a career, or facing a significant transition, we’re here to help you reach your financial goals with clarity and confidence.

Pre-Retirees: Will I Have Enough to Retire?

For those nearing retirement, the biggest question is often, “Will my savings last?” You’ve been diligently saving and investing, but as retirement approaches, uncertainty can take over. What if the market drops right when you start withdrawing? Will your portfolio hold up?

At Evans Family Wealth, we know your personal financial journey doesn’t always follow market averages. We create personalized retirement plans that protect your wealth from unpredictable market shifts, while giving you the flexibility to adjust when life throws curveballs. With our approach, you can retire confidently, knowing your plan is built specifically for you.

Early Retirees: How Do I Make it Last?

If you’ve already retired, the focus shifts to managing withdrawals. The concern isn’t just how much you’ve saved—it’s how to make it last. Early retirees often grapple with the uncertainty of market fluctuations, potential healthcare costs, and changing family dynamics.

At Evans Family Wealth, we help you navigate this phase by creating flexible strategies that adjust to market conditions. Whether it’s managing your withdrawal rates or ensuring your assets are properly diversified, we help keep you on track for the long term.

Established Professionals: Simplifying Complex Finances

As an established professional, your financial life can feel overwhelming. You’re juggling a career, a family, and long-term goals like retirement or education savings. With so many moving parts, how do you ensure that each financial decision supports the life you’re building?

Evans Family Wealth specializes in simplifying complex financial situations. Unlike institutions where advice can often feel fragmented or generic, we deliver a cohesive strategy that integrates your investments, taxes, and estate planning. Our goal is to ensure each part of your financial plan works together smoothly, so you can focus on what matters most.

Newly Single: Navigating a Major Life Change

If you’re newly single—whether through bereavement or divorce—you’re facing not only emotional challenges but significant financial ones as well. You may be managing inherited assets for the first time or restructuring your entire financial life. The last thing you need is the impersonal service of a large bank or the exclusionary atmosphere of traditional brokerages, where depth of experience can be lacking. Creating a robust financial plan for life after loss – The Globe and Mail

At Evans Family Wealth, we help you navigate this transition smoothly, ensuring your inherited assets are integrated into a comprehensive financial plan that protects your future. We take a different approach: we come to you. You won’t be shuffled from one advisor to another like at many banks. Instead, you’ll receive consistent, compassionate guidance designed for your situation. We help you rebuild financial security, so you can move forward with confidence.

Young Professionals: Seeking Stability and Growth

As a young professional, you’re at a critical stage in your financial life. You need consistent advice to help compound your wealth over time. Unfortunately, large banks often change advisors frequently, leaving you without continuity or a long-term strategy. How can you grow your wealth if your advice keeps changing?

At Evans Family Wealth, we provide the stability you need. We partner with you to build a financial plan that evolves with your career and your life, striving to ensure that your wealth grows in a sustainable way. Our goal is to offer long-term support, not just temporary guidance.

Good News! Avoiding the Bears: Lessons from History and the Stock Market
