Welcome
At The Schoner Team, we offer the knowledge and perspective we have gained from advising high-networth clients for many years. Our founder, Sam Schoner, has worked in wealth management since 1990. He is joined by team members Mary Jane Reyes, Hilary Yu, and Lauren McPartland, who add collective wealth management experience of more than 55 years. Clients look to us for assistance in weighing their options, discerning a hierarchy of priorities, and navigating the decisions that can accompany substantial wealth.
A single source for integrated wealth management
Our team draws on extensive experience in investing, wealth transfer, banking and lending. We appreciate the singular nature of each client's circumstances, taking the time to gain a clear understanding of each person's goals and aspirations. Many of our clients have worked with us for decades, allowing us to develop a perceptive grasp of their preferences and interests. This familiarity allows us to support steady progress toward their objectives, particularly those that require long-term planning and execution.
Service that cements our relationships
Interacting with our clients is one of the most enjoyable aspects of our role. We look to convey how much we value each person or family through our reliable service model. Timely action and diligent follow-through are the bedrocks of our approach. We strive to embody these principles through a strong work ethic, customized to each client:
- You will reach a live person who understands your situation. We are a close-knit team that stays apprised of each client's situation. When you speak with one of our team members, you will know that you are heard and understood.
