I consider Mike as an advisor extraordinaire; who goes above and beyond to create financial strategies to help his clients. He brings a wealth of experience and is always on the lookout for emerging opportunities to grow the client's portfolio. I have only known him for a while but his qualities are second to none. Not that you'll need him often, but he's readily available for a financial conversation. Based on my experience with Mike, I've no hesitation in recommending him as a fiduciary.

I knew Mike professionally before I engaged him to help me with my finances. We worked together in the same office but I was not one of his clients at the time. One day I asked if he had some time as I needed some financial advice. It turned into an hour-long conversation and I knew Mike was exactly the person I needed to help guide me with my personal finances. Since that time, Mike has helped me continue to achieve my financial goals. As I get closer to retirement, he has given my wife and me options I never considered. Mike is extremely knowledgable, energetic, patient and very personable. I am fortunate to have met him and become part of the Milestone Asset Management Group. Do yourself a favor, give Mike a call and spend an hour with him. If it's not a good fit, you lost an hour. If it is, you gained a financial champion and adviser who will be in your corner.

For quite sometime, my wife and I had no idea what to do with the small pensions and 401k’s that we had from several companies we worked for. Enter Rich from Milestone Asset Management. He sat down with us and listened to our concerns and fears and what we hoped to achieve when we retired. We wanted to insure we had enough income for a comfortable retirement, which would allow us to visit our children and take a vacation every year. Rich put together a plan which combined the various pensions and 401k’s to maximize our earning potential. At every step, he reminded us, that if we did not feel comfortable with an option, we could make changes or leave the current plans as they are.He provided a worry-free plan that we are very happy with. Thank you! Kevin and Cheryl

I have known Michael for over ten years. We first met when he was at Fidelity and my retirement account was there. His advise was extremely helpful for me during the market downturn of 2008. He left there to start his own business and I left a few years later looking for more personalized attention to my portfolio. I found Michael again at Milestone Asset Mgt. about five years ago and he has managed my money ever since. His attention to my individualized portfolio and our one on one meetings quarterly are just the kind of service I was looking for. I highly recommend him as an individual and as a financial professional! William Hall, M.D.

I came to Michael Mezheritskiy a couple of years ago to get help on reallocating my investment portfolio. Even though I knew very little about investing, Michael had the heart of a teacher and took his time explaining everything and answering all of my questions. I never felt pressured or rushed into making any investment decisions. I would highly recommend Michael to anyone seeking investment advice.

Michael, we are absolutely delighted with the service you provide. Early on you took the time to understand our circumstances, interests, and preferences. What continues to impress us is your guidance on matters that for us are fairly complicated. You always mange to break subjects down into manageable pieces that we can absorb which allows us to make educated decisions. Since you started managing our financial future, over Six years ago, our accounts have increased in value. Some more significant than others but no matter how crazy the world gets, with your guidance, our financial future is secure. Your professional, ethical and caring demeanor elicits our trust and respect. Thank you for everything you do for us and will continue to do into our dotage!

My husband and I recently retired and weren’t sure of the best way to protect our finances from inflation and low interest rates. We decided to seek the guidance of a financial advisor. After researching local individuals we chose Richard LoPresti of Milestone Investments. Richard worked with us to choose the right course of action for our money. It has been over a year now and we are very pleased with the choices we made per his advise. We have no hesitation recommending Richard LoPresti and Michael Mezheritski of Milestone Investments to anyone. Arthur and Heidi Goodhue

We have tremendous respect for, and confidence in Mike as our financial planner. Mike constantly watches over our investments, making changes and improvements to bring the maximum benefits to our portfolio while reducing risk for us. His communication is outstanding. He offers quarterly meetings & updates & goes over our portfolio in detail while ensuring we understand what is happening with our money. He's easy to talk to, accessible to us, and he has a great sense of humor. Highly recommend!

When we first met Mike for a review of our investments, we were impressed with his unique approach to personal investing. Investing is fairly complex but he broke it down into a simple to understand philosophy that made a great deal of sense. Mike tailored an investment plan to our specific risk tolerance that has done us well. His attention to detail, constant oversight and contact with us is over the top. And his memory for numbers continues to amaze me. Count us among his many satisfied clients.

I met Michael in 2019 after attending one of their financial seminars. I had attended quite a few, and I was very impressed with the level of professionalism and knowledge. I met with Michael several more times over the next few months and was very comfortable moving my retirement accounts to Milestone.. it has been great, Michael is very accessible, extremely knowledgeable and always takes time to explain our strategies. So glad I attended that seminar in 2019! I would highly recommend Milestone Asset Management.

"We have been a client of Michael's for about seven years now. He is the quintessential financial professional and gentleman. He routinely pushes information out to his clients to keep us informed of market trends and bumps in the road - quite helpful in times of high volatility. He is always available by phone for personal advice and discussions. We have asked Michael for assistance in taking market gains off the table several times. He has completed these transactions in hours, not days as we have been accustomed to in the past working with other financial management groups. The important point here is that we have withdrawn profits, not principle, on multiple occasions - that means there were profits made to take. During these transactions, Michael has never pried into why we choose to withdraw the monies, but instead worked hard to minimize our tax consequences. Overall, Michael has greatly exceeded our expectations for a financial management partner - key word - partner. We look forward to continuing our relationship with Michael into the uncertain future. With his help, we shall continue to prosper."

I have been working with Michael for about 3 years. He is very professional. He is always reachable, polite, straight forward and willing to address clients concern. When market had a "correction moment". Michael handled my account with the cool head, which result in no losses but just gains when market came back up. 9 out of his 10 picks shows good or great results. When it is not a good pick, (nobody have a "crystal ball") he pull out of it in the right time. When I find a stock or ETF, which I like I can send it to Michael and he will give me his recommendation and professional advice. Bottom line - I feel my money are in GOOD HANDS.

I was introduced to Michael over 2 years ago and ever since then I have received quite an education. I've worked with advisors in the past, but never realized the differences between brokers and fiduciaries. As a fiduciary, Michael is a considerable asset to anyone that works with him. What you see is what you get with him and the advice he provides allows you to make an informed decision. I'm thankful that he manages my family's portfolio.

Have been a client for three years and happy with Mike and his team as they are very knowledgeable about financial markets and economy as a whole, and being very responsive to my individual needs. Mike has been very accomodating in being available to answer my sometimes complex questions. He has been keen to provide his expert opinion and offer solutions that are truly unique to my situation, instead of just offering a generic product to make a quick sale. Mike has also shown care about what’s right for me at the time when my opinion was different and was frank to express his sidein a very diplomatic and logical manner. These factors truly distinguish him from other fin. advisors I have hired in the past, therefore, rating him with 5 stars, and would absolutely recommend to others!
