WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY?
Meghana
My husband and I were looking for objective financial advice without being sold specific products. Chris clearly understood our requirements and provided us exactly that. He was generous with his time, he answered all of our questions and we didn't feel hurried or rushed at any point. He offered weekend and late evening slots that worked perfectly with our schedules. We came out of the experience having a clear idea of our current financial situation and next steps. Thank you Chris!
Chris gave us objective financial advice and put together a solid plan for selling our business and for retirement. By listening well to our concerns and needs, Chris was able to take a snapshot of our current financial situation. From there, he set clear goals and laid out the ideal path to help us achieve those goals. We now understand our current financial situation and what steps we need to take to secure our future. (...) It was a pleasure to work with Chris.

My husband & I contacted Chris Merrick after reading that Merrick Financial was on the Best Toronto's list of the 10 Best Financial Planners in Toronto. Working with Chris was stress free because he gave us sound, unbiased advice without any high pressure sales tactics. With his extensive knowledge & expertise, he provided us with a very comprehensive, tax-efficient retirement income plan tailored to our needs to guide us through our retirement. We highly recommend Chris & the services of Merrick Financial.
