Virginia Estate and Retirement Planning Advisors, Inc. Voted 2026 "Best Local Financial Services Firm"

Firm President, Thomas P. Marshall, Voted 2026 "Best Local Financial Planner"

RICHMOND, Va., Sept. 24, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Virginia Estate and Retirement Planning Advisors, Inc. has been voted the 2026 "Best Local Financial Services Firm" by readers of the Richmond Times-Dispatch. Thomas P. Marshall, president of the firm, has been voted the 2026 "Best Local Financial Planner."

The honors were awarded in the newspaper's annual reader-voted "The Best" contest, in which residents of the Richmond region nominate and select local businesses and professionals.

"We appreciate you, Richmond," Thomas Marshall remarked. "This year's voting results reflect well on both our staff and the clients they support. Our team members are among the finest in their respective fields, performing exceptional work. With over 4.1 million people retiring each year, today's retirees need a firm that can provide tax advice, investment advice, and estate planning in one place. Few firms offer that level of expertise. As an independent Registered Investment Advisor, we do not offer securities; rather, we provide guidance and are mandated to prioritize the needs of our clients. Receiving this honor multiple years in a row from our own community is the most meaningful acknowledgment we could ask for."
