An Intergenerational, Independent Firm
Since 1989 Hilltop has helped clients weather global financial crises and countless personal life events. In an era when most client-advisor relationships were based on product sales, founders Don Rutledge and Deborah Hining used a fee-based financial planning approach. As franchise owners with a national brokerage firm, they began crafting their own team with a mentorship culture which we carry on today.
In 2016 we became a fully independent, fee-only firm to better serve our clients. We offer a personal touch, transparency, and leading technology.
