This is the third consecutive year Mr. Shear has appeared on the list.

"As a company, we understand that our clients' success is our success. Achievements like this reflect our team's commitment to delivering the exemplary services and care our clients have come to expect from CrossleyShear," stated Evan Shear, Co-Founder and Branch Manager of CrossleyShear Wealth Management, and CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER™ professional.  "This honor is truly humbling and a tribute to the collective effort and passion our team delivers on a daily basis."

The Forbes Best-In-State Wealth Advisors rankings spotlight more than 4,000 advisors from Alaska to Florida with team assets amounting to more than $4 trillion. Developed by SHOOK Research, the award is based on an algorithm of qualitative criterion, mostly gained through telephone and in-person due diligence interviews, and quantitative data. Advisors that are considered have a minimum of seven years' experience, and the algorithm weighs factors like revenue trends, assets under management, compliance records, industry experience and those that encompass the highest standards of best practices. Portfolio performance is not a criterion due to varying client objectives and lack of audited data. Neither Forbes nor SHOOK receive a fee in exchange for rankings.
