Edelman Financial Opens 2 More Offices
Firm now has 11 offices in four states


FAIRFAX, Va., Feb.8 -- Edelman Financial Services LLC, the financial planning and investment management firm headed by renowned financial advisor, author and talk show host Ric Edelman, today announced the opening of two additional offices in Friendship Heights and Howard County, Maryland. They join nine other offices already in operation.

“Consumers have too few opportunities to get the independent, objective financial advice they need, “said Edelman, ranked the nation’s No. 1 independent financial advisor by Barron’s. “We receive thousands of phone calls and e-mails every month from people seeking financial advice and information, so we have opened these offices to help them.”

Edelman Financial manages $4.5 billion for more than 12,500 clients across the country and internationally. While most investment firms serve only the wealthy, Edelman Financial is known for catering to those of lesser means. “Many of our clients are millionaires,” Edelman explained, “but the vast majority of our clients are not in that exclusive realm. Our clients typically are middle class folks trying to pay for college for their kids while trying to secure their own retirement. It’s an honor to serve them.”

Ric Edelman has been providing financial advice to consumers for almost 25 years. His nationally syndicated radio program, The Ric Edelman Show, airs in Washington, DC, on WMAL-630AM and in Baltimore on WCBM-680AM on Saturdays from 10a.m. to noon. He is also a sought after speaker and TV personality and #1 New York Times best-selling author of seven books. Edelman’s popular Web site is RicEdelman.com.

Other Edelman Financial offices are in Alexandria and Fairfax, VA; Bethesda, MD; Manhattan, Staten Island, Garden City and White Plains, New York, and Saddle Brook and Short Hills, New Jersey. Each office can be reached at 888-PLAN-RIC.
