Serving Those Who Serve

Serving Those Who Serve (STWS) is a different kind of financial services practice. Our exclusive focus is serving the Federal Professional with custom strategies for those in the Federal workplace. We listen and understand what’s important to you to help you make informed financial decisions.

Founded in 1989

STWS was established to create a solution for people who needed better options. Federal professionals told us they were lacking financial advisory services just for them, so we began offering personalized planning based on the Federal workplace and its unique offering of employee benefits. We knew it was essential that every advisor had an in-depth knowledge of the Federal system and the combined handbooks covering the wide range of benefits – including the continual revisions. That commitment continues to this day.

In Service to the Federal Professional

Financial planning can be complicated and confusing. That’s why it pays to discuss your situation with an advisor who is well versed in the special opportunities that Federal benefits afford. Our team of trained advisors can help you navigate your options. From your TSP to your Disability and Long Term Care insurance, we help you make the best decisions to take care of the ones who matter most.
