Financial Advisors for Florence, Kentucky

Florence is home base for our firm. Our office sits on Houston Road in Boone County, a short drive from Union, Hebron, and Erlanger, and it is where our advisors meet with individuals, families, and business owners who want clear, coordinated guidance close to home.

Working with a financial advisor in Florence means working with people who know the area: the commute across the Ohio River, the employers around Northern Kentucky, and the Kentucky tax rules that shape retirement decisions. We start by learning your goals, build a plan for investments, retirement income, and the decisions in between, and keep reviewing it as your circumstances change.

Why Local Advice Matters

Kentucky’s rules for income, retirement savings, and inheritances differ from Ohio’s, and they keep changing. An advisor who works with these rules every day can help you see how each one fits into the rest of your plan.

Kentucky’s Income Tax Rate Dropped in 2026

Kentucky’s flat individual income tax rate fell from 4% to 3.5% for tax years beginning on or after January 1, 2026, according to the Kentucky Department of Revenue. A rate change can shift the math on when to take retirement withdrawals or complete a Roth conversion.

Retirement Income Has Its Own Exclusion

Kentucky lets each taxpayer exclude up to $31,110 of qualifying pension and retirement income, including IRA and annuity distributions, from state taxable income, per the Kentucky Department of Revenue Schedule P. Coordinating withdrawals between spouses can help each of you use your own exclusion.

Kentucky Still Has an Inheritance Tax

Kentucky is one of a small number of states that levy an inheritance tax. Spouses, children, grandchildren, parents, and siblings are exempt as Class A beneficiaries, while nieces, nephews, and other heirs may owe tax, according to the Kentucky Department of Revenue. Beneficiary choices deserve a careful look.

Are your Florence financial advisors fiduciaries?

Bob and Woody Mueller hold the Accredited Investment Fiduciary® (AIF®) designation, administered by Fi360, which reflects training in fiduciary standards of care and a documented investment process. Fee-based investment advisory services are offered through Sigma Planning Corporation, a registered investment advisor, and recommendations made within that advisory relationship are held to a fiduciary standard. Securities offered through Parkland Securities, LLC, Member FINRA/SIPC, are brokerage services governed by a different standard, and your advisor can explain which one applies to each account.

Can you help if I live in Florence but work in Cincinnati?

Yes. Florence sits minutes from downtown Cincinnati, and we serve clients throughout Northern Kentucky and Greater Cincinnati. We can help you coordinate workplace retirement plans, savings, and income strategies with your tax professional so that both states’ rules are considered. Registration varies by advisor and state, so ask us which of our advisors can work with you based on where you live.

What should I bring to my first meeting?

Bring recent statements for your investment and retirement accounts, your most recent tax return, your Social Security statement if you have one, and any pension or insurance documents. A short list of questions and goals is helpful too. If you do not have everything, that is fine; we can start with what you have.

Start with an introductory conversation. Call (859) 918-6750 or request a consultation online, and we will set up a time to learn about your goals, review where you stand today, and explain how our services and fees work before you decide anything.
