Who We Are

Pacific Peak Advisors is a boutique financial advisory firm dedicated to helping individuals, families, and business owners make confident financial decisions. With personalized guidance, decades of experience, and a commitment to your goals, we’re here to support every stage of your financial journey.

Our History

Pacific Peak Advisors is a boutique firm, originally organized by Robin Robertson. In 2012, Sean Kovich joined as partner, adding his expertise to the firm.

We work with our clients through their changes in life, from the birth of a first child through retirement and onward as they pass the reins to the next generation.

At Pacific Peak Advisors, we see clear communication as vital to our client relationship. Beginning with personal meetings, attentive customer service, and customized planning, we nurture each relationship and the trust we work so diligently to build.

We recognize that, for many of our clients, their children and grandchildren top their list of priorities. We offer free consulting to the children/grandchildren of our clients through age 25 for topics like: opening a first credit card, how to obtain a school loan, and how to start a first retirement account. With the dearth of financial education available to kids, we enjoy doing our part to be a resource for your whole family.

Our Process

We meet with each client and their close advisors initially to discuss family goals, retirement objectives, risk management, asset protection and personal objectives. We establish the priority list and then discuss the techniques available to achieve those goals and objectives.

Once this is complete, we prepare an analysis of the options available and discuss the pros and cons of these options. We model the techniques numerically so the client can see the exact result of each potential solution.
Once an action plan is decided on, we assist with the implementation of the solutions selected and follow through to their completion. This might include family meetings, advisor meetings, interfacing with trust companies, etc.

We review all our plans as necessary and hold family meetings to make sure we are up to date on concerns and issues.

Plan - Everything starts with a plan

Planning is the gateway to what is possible. It is our belief that every family, large or small, should have a financial plan. Each of our clients gets one at no additional charge. A plan is the first step in our ongoing relationship and the framework for how we make decisions. It all starts with the most essential questions. What is important to you?
