“I needed a guide”

No widow should have to navigate grief while drowning in paperwork, bank accounts, and overwhelming financial decisions.

At Farther, my mission is to shoulder that burden, bring clarity to the confusion, and give you the confidence to move forward with peace and certainty.

Hi, I'm Mitch

For nearly 20 years I’ve walked beside women who suddenly found themselves in charge of money after losing a spouse. I’ve cried at kitchen tables, sorted stacks of unfamiliar statements, and celebrated the moment a widow realizes, “I’m going to be okay.”

As a fee-based fiduciary, my promise is simple: clear advice in plain English, paced at your comfort level, and always in your best interest.

LaPrele's Experience

With no clear sense of how much was coming in or going out, and a family legacy to maintain, she leaned on Mitch to help her make sense of it all. Learn how Mitch help LaPrele sort through decades of documents, structure annual gifts to her children and grandchildren, and move forward with clarity and confidence.
