WHAT CLIENTS SAY?

KIND WORDS FROM MY CLIENTS

We were so pleased to find Manny Erlich and Westfield Pensions who brought his many years of experience in the pension planning arena to InspIR Group.  We were looking for a customized approach to our particular situation, not the cookie-cutter pension design that most large companies offer.  As a professional services firm with a large number of senior level employees, we needed a unique program.  Manny listened to our needs and designed a plan that works not only for the owners but all of our colleagues.  He provides a high-touch approach and is always available to patiently answer any questions.  He also works hand-in-hand with our CFO and financial broker.

My firm has been working with Manny since 2016.  His thoughtful responses to my questions are provided promptly.  He provides us with all correspondence that we need to keep our plan in compliance without being reminded to do so and he is always available to staff members if they have any questions regarding the firm’s plan. I am very happy with his services and my interactions with Manny are always friendly and honest.
