Rather & Kittrell Capital Management is a great company. They have provided financial assistance/guidance/ security for our family for over 20 years. They are on top of all activities of the local and world markets adjusting our portfolio to meet our desired financial goals. The service provided provides our family with a sense of security I was not sure was possible. People have ask us to switch to other financial advisors, not a chance. Doug & Debbie Drummer

Professionalism, expertise, and integrity are the three most important criteria for me in selecting an investment company.Rather and Kittrell are at the TOP in each category for me based on 20 years of investing. In addition, their PERSONAL INVOLVEMENT separates them from so many other companies.

I highly recommend Rather & Kittrell for wealth management and financial planning. They also have given me sound advice during several life transitions. I've been a client of Jeff Hall for years and now I'm also working with Sam Paganelli. From my first meeting with Jeff, I was impressed with his knowledge, professionalism, and attention to detail. He took the time to understand my specific goals and needs before and after retirement. Jeff and Sam are extremely responsive to any questions and routinely reach out to schedule meetings to review my investments. I have complete confidence in their guidance and always feel like I've made two friends and I'm not just another number in a file.

I retired in October of last year. As part of this major milestone, we made the decision to transition our financial planning needs to Rather & Kittrell. Jeff Hall, Sam Paganelli, Crystal Meldrum and their entire team made the process seamless. The customer service is unmatched. They answer the phone (or text)! We have been very pleased with the holistic approach to wealth management that goes beyond just the stock market. I would highly recommend Rather & Kittrell for your financial planning and wealth management needs!

I have been a client of Rather and Kittrell for several years now. The professionals there are not only very expert with managing my financial portfolio, but also are very caring individuals who are interested in me personally and what is going on in my life. They also are very willing to give advice to my family members who are not yet at the point of needing a professional financial advisor. I would highly recommend Rather and Kittrell to anyone who is in need of a wealth management advisor.

Rather and Kittrell is by far the best financial planning and investment firm I have had the privilege to work with. They listen well and truly want to understand your values and your plans for the future. They then take a comprehensive approach to help you achieve those goals. I have a high degree of trust and faith in all that they do!

After handling our investments myself for many years, sometimes with the help of a stock broker or sometimes not, my wife and I decided to entrust or portfolio to Jeff Hall at R&K. That was in 2013 after a company merger and with retirement looming. Our decision was confirmed after a lengthy discussion with Jeff about our family situation, goals, financial stability post-retirement, etc. In more recent years, Jeff has added Sam Paganelli to our account as a junior advisor. Our relationship with both Jeff and Sam and the R&K team has been excellent through the years; we are treated more like family than clients. We also appreciate their advice/suggestions on estate planning and "blood pressure control" when the inevitable market dips occur. Thanks guys for a great relationship and a job well done!

We are long-time clients of Rather & Kittrell. Jeff Hall and Sam Paganelli are amazing representatives of R&K. They are very knowledgeable and personable. They care about us as people, not just as clients. Their advice and guidance over all the years has benefited us greatly. I can’t imagine our portfolio being with anyone else.

We met Jeff Hall through my boss at the time. After an initial meeting, we knew Jeff was the person we wanted to manage and guide us on our investments. Over the years we have been more than pleased. Jeff has walked us through so many different situations and did so with his knowledge, his complete understanding of what was going on and what we wanted to accomplish. Jeff is not just our financial advisor, he is a friend and we can’t imagine anyone else watching out for our best interests.

Jeff Hall and Sam Paganelli - A Winning Team

✅ Wealthtender Certified Advisor Review™
Sep 11, 2023
Jeff Hall has been a good friend and financial advisor for my wife and me for the past 11 years. We were just getting started in planning our finances. He helped us with not only our money but with our goals in our life. He has now added Sam Paganelli to help us make our goals just like a college place kicker on a championship football team win the game of life. Sam is a great asset and is a valuable player on this team. Jeff exhibits the highest level of integrity, and we trust him to always do what is right and best for us. Since we sold our business, we are now trying to adjust; and we are moving into the next phase of our life. There is a plan in place that we understand. Also, we happen to be givers, and we really appreciate the fact that Rather and Kittrell believes that charitable giving should be a part of your financial plan. That says volumes about who they are and what they are about. When we sold our business in 2022, Jeff Hall was ready with suggestions as to how we could best give and the tax benefits that would result. We highly recommend Rather and Kittrell if you are in need of a financial advisor. In particular, we would recommend Jeff Hall and Sam Paganelli.

We have worked with Jeff for over 10 years. We are probably one of his smallest accounts, but he has always treated us as if we were the most important client he has. He listens to our needs and goals, offers suggestions and then manages our assets with the utmost care. I believe R&K works as a team, so it is not just one person's opinion but a knowledgeable group. I have trusted Jeff during our savings years and will continue to lean on him during our retirement.

Glad we went with R&K

✅ Wealthtender Certified Advisor Review™
Sep 5, 2023
After years of "do it yourself" financial and tax management we had built up the value and complexity of our portfolio to the point where we felt it necessary to get professional advice and guidance on our investments, estate planning and taxes. We contacted R&K and met with Jeff Hall to discuss what R&K could do for us. We were impressed and felt comfortable with their way of doing things, which is low key, friendly and totally transparent. If I have a question or concern about any part of my finances, I can call Jeff and talk things over before making a decision. I really appreciate his advice and his responsiveness. It's been nine years now and we enjoy and look forward to our quarterly review meetings with Jeff and his team. Quite honestly, we view them as good friends and trust that they have our best interests at heart. We highly recommend the folks at R&K.

Joining RK to assist in financial planning for my family was one of the best decisions I've ever made. They are knowledgeable, up to date on all market happenings and know when the right time is to make changes to your portfolio. They work to understand your family goals, what you desire to achieve and over what time period you desire to achieve your goals. They provide several reviews during the year to ensure your goals / needs have not changed and how your portfolio remains on target. You can't go wrong with RK.

Financial Stability Through Life Transitions

✅ Wealthtender Certified Advisor Review™
Sep 5, 2023
Historically I managed household expenses and investment decisions personally with collaboration/approval of my wife; we did not have a financial advisor. We paid our bills, saved some money, tithed to our church and got our two daughters through college with very little debt. Another words, we were stable financially; along the way we felt that we were making good decisions, however a few which typically were made in haste with the hope of a quick buck turned out to be major mistakes. Then a significant life transition occurred 10+ years ago. The company for which I had worked for several years merged with a larger firm which resulted in cash payment for our company stock as it was an employee owned firm. So, with a sizeable check in my hand a decision had to be made as to what to do with it. Obviously I was not alone in this, so we decided to invite Jeff Hall of Rather & Kittrell to speak to our group and respond to questions. I was very impressed with Jeff's presentation, and after further private discussions, my wife and I decided to place our future financial wellbeing to Jeff and R&K. Much of our time together in the early days was spent providing Jeff with our life circumstances, hopes and dreams, family relationships, risk tolerance, etc., and through that confirming our trust in Jeff and his judgement. He encouraged us to become debt free (which we have), and other matters which were beyond pure investing but very important to our long term wellbeing. Then came a second transition. We both retired and thus entered a new phase of life with SS instead of bi-weekly paychecks. We turned over our 401K/IRA's to Jeff to invest consistent with our previously agreed strategy. All has gone well; in particular his calming influence to stick with "the plan" even in difficult market circumstances. A final personal word... Jeff has become a good friend, much like a member of our family. He is a consummate professional backed by a great organization; and very important to us, also a strong Christian business and family man.

Jeff Hall - Exhibits the Highest Level of Integrity

✅ Wealthtender Certified Advisor Review™
Sep 5, 2023
Jeff Hall has been a financial advisor to my husband and me since about 2012. The beginning process was not just about money but about everything in our life, such as our goals and how we feel about money. He exhibits the highest level of integrity beyond question, and we trust him to always do what is right and best for us. We have now moved from working, saving and giving to spending and giving, so our main concern is that our money will last as long as we do. There is a plan in place that we totally understand. Also, I happen to be a giver, and I really appreciate the fact that Rather and Kittrell believes that charitable giving should be a part of your financial plan. That says volumes about who they are and what they are about. When we sold our business in 2022, Jeff Hall was ready with suggestions as to how we could best give and the tax benefits that would result.

Thanks to Jeff Hall and the entire team at Rather & Kittrell I am able to comfortably join my wife in retirement. From the start of our financial planning journey Jeff was very professional, knowledgeable, analyzed plans for our future and set us on a mutually agreed course of action. The Rather & Kittrel team has clearly communicated with us throughout the process and continues to do so as we transition from savings to managing our financial needs during retirement. We will remain a client and encourage others to consider Jeff Hall and the team at Rather & Kittrell for their financial planning needs.. Dave Drown "Retired"
