About Benchmark Wealth Management - Headquartered in Anaheim, Ca, established in 2004 and currently has 10 branch offices with 21 experienced Financial Consultants and staff. Benchmark was founded by a group of advisors with decades of experience in the financial services industry. Over the years we saw the industry shift its focus from the needs of clients to the profitability of the firm. This paradigm shift has largely changed today’s role of the “Financial Advisor” from consultant to salesperson.

Through Benchmark’s affiliation with LPL Financial, our advisors have the true independence to provide unbiased advice to help our clients pursue their financial goals – we do not have any sales quotas or proprietary products. Our independence allows us to properly place our focus where it belongs – on our clients’ needs. We value relationships over transactions!
