About Ben Batiste
Hi, I'm Ben Batiste. I founded Crestmark Wealth Group to provide a more coordinated and straightforward approach to financial planning. My background includes service in both the U.S. Marines and the U.S. Army, where discipline, preparation, and strategic thinking were essential. Those principles now shape my approach to wealth planning.I work with high-net-worth individuals, families, business owners, and military professionals who have complicated financial lives and need everything brought together into one clear strategy. My work spans coordinated financial planning, investment management, tax strategy, and estate guidance, because true financial clarity requires all of these pieces working together, not in silos.
Many successful professionals have complicated financial lives. I bring everything together into one clear strategy so you can focus on what matters most. Whether you are an entrepreneur navigating taxes, income planning, and long-term wealth strategies, a family who wants coordinated planning across investments, taxes, and estate strategies, or a disciplined individual preparing for long-term financial security, my goal is the same: to design a strategy that integrates investments, tax planning, and long-term planning, then put that plan into motion with ongoing oversight — adjusting as your life, goals, and market conditions change.
As a veteran, I bring the same discipline and mission-focused mindset to every client relationship that I carried through my years of military service. You will always have a valued advisor to guide decisions as life evolves.

We Want Your Voice to be Heard
Wealthtender exists to help people discover trusted and authentic financial professionals and educators who may be a good fit based on their unique needs and circumstances.
Your honest reviews help people decide which financial professionals and educators may be best suited to their individual needs.
The majority of people trust reviews as much as personal recommendations, so what you write in your review should reflect your own opinion and experience.
Tips for Writing a Helpful Review
Be descriptive. Instead of just saying what you like or dislike, share why. What have you enjoyed most or least about your experience with the provider? Have they helped you overcome a difficult financial challenge or strengthened your knowledge about particular money matters? The more details, the better!
Be honest. Your rating and review should reflect your actual experience.
Stay relevant. Ensure your review is helpful to others by avoiding off-topic discussions or personal opinions not relevant to your direct experience.
Make your review easy to read. Reviews should be readable to others. Use proper grammar, avoid excessive capitalization or punctuation, and be sure to check your spelling.
Be yourself. Don’t post as, or pretend to be, someone else, and do not say you’re associated with a person or organization with which you are not.
Be nice. Don’t write abusive, hateful, threatening, or harassing content. Avoid personal threats, hate speech, obscenities, or inflammatory language.
Respect the privacy of others. Don’t post information that can be used to identify another individual or compromise their privacy.
Report abuse. Thank you for helping us ensure reviews on Wealthtender are helpful to everyone. If you suspect possible violations of our guidelines or believe a review is inappropriate, please email support@wealthtender.com with a link to the provider’s profile, indicating the review in question and the reason you believe it violates our guidelines.
