Heim, Young & Associates, Inc. was founded in 1989 by Dennis Heim and Dean Young. After several years of working for a large financial services corporation, they decided that clients could be better served by offering financial planning services from an independent point of view.
As it stands today, Heim, Young & Associates is the largest independent financial planning firm in the Springfield, Missouri surrounding area; specializing in retirement planning. Our staff consists of 25 members, 16 of whom who are licensed in various aspects of our business, including securities, life and health insurance.
We focus on building and maintaining long lasting relationships with our clients by providing prompt and careful attention to their financial needs. We also strive to provide excellent service through periodic, individual, face to face meetings.
We invite anyone who could use advice in financial planning, investments, retirement planning, etc... to give us a call for a free consultation.
