I’d recommend asking your friends/family if they work with an advisor. If that doesn’t uncover anything, you can check the financial planning board site:
That might direct you to someone good. I’d recommend meeting with possibly two or three advisors.
Watch out for advisors that try to only recommend insurance strategies, stock picks, hot dot chasing, etc. They should help you establish a diversified portfolio of low correlating asset classes. Also, pay attention to fees and don’t be afraid to ask how they’re compensated. Some charge a flat fee and an additional fee for investment implementation. Others charge a fee based assets under management.
Most importantly, do your homework before meeting with them so you cover all of your concerns.
