Edward Jones - Financial Advisor: Gracie N Bartoldus, CFP®|CRPC™ - Richland (WA)

Evangel Faimalo Kelly was amazing and the whole office was very kind and warm. They did their best to make you comfortable. It was such a quick and easy process and they helped me grow my credit score! I would recommend them to my family and friends. Or anyone really!

Koda Chovanetz My wife and I recently worked with Pacific Portfolio Trust Company to put together an estate plan and long-term wealth strategy for our family, and we’re really glad we did. With two kids to think about, we wanted to make sure everything was set up properly for the future, and the team at Pacific Portfolio made the whole process straightforward and stress-free. They took the time to understand our goals, explained our options clearly, and helped us create a plan that gives us peace of mind. We never felt pressured or talked down to. They were knowledgeable, approachable, and genuinely thoughtful in their advice. If you’re looking to protect your family and plan for the future, I highly recommend working with Pacific Portfolio. They’ve been a great partner for us.

John Ramer Excellent business and great people. Very happy with Craig and entire staff.

John Paul Meier Travis is truly the most humble, trustworthy, and genuinely kind person I’ve had the privilege to work with. He doesn’t just provide financial advice—he becomes a partner in your success, someone who deeply cares about your goals and helps you achieve them with integrity and thoughtfulness. In an industry that often feels intimidating, Travis is a refreshing change. From the moment you meet him, you’ll see his commitment to doing what’s best for his clients. He’s transparent, ethical, and ensures that you always feel secure and informed about your financial decisions. But it’s not just about trust—it’s also about expertise. Travis is, without a doubt, one of the smartest and most effective professionals I’ve ever encountered. His ability to explain complex financial topics in ways that make sense is remarkable. Whether you’re planning for retirement, investing, or navigating the uncertainties of the market, his strategic foresight and sharp analytical skills ensure you’re in the best hands. He takes the time to truly understand your situation, tailoring personalized financial plans that fit your needs, not some cookie-cutter approach. And no matter what questions or concerns arise, Travis is always available with prompt, thoughtful answers. His warmth and accessibility make what could be a stressful process feel comfortable and empowering. On a personal level, I admire Travis’s humility and character. Despite his impressive success and deep knowledge, he remains grounded and approachable. He truly values his clients and takes pride in helping them secure financial peace of mind. I can say, without hesitation, that Travis is the kind of person you can trust completely—not just with your finances, but as someone who genuinely cares about your future. If you want someone who’s not only highly skilled and incredibly effective but also operates with integrity and heart, Travis Messinger is the advisor for you. I can’t recommend him enough—he’s an absolute gem in Spokane and beyond.

Cynthia J Hurn I dropped into the office without an appointment on Tuesday at 9:30am seeking help to fill in my SS pension application. I brought all my paperwork and photo IDs, so I wouldnt waste anyones time, including my own. I also brought a book to read in case there was a long line ahead of me. The office was easy to find, had plenty of parking, appeared clean and well organised with about 10 chairs in the waiting space, 3 glassed-in mini offices providing sound privacy, and a simple system of checking in and getting a ticket. The restrooms were conveniently next to the reception desk and were clean and properly stocked. There were four people ahead of me and I waited only 10 or 15 minutes for my number to be called. Ginger, at window 3, gave me great service with genuine warmth and professionalism. I actually enjoyed the whole encounter as we shared several laughs while Ginger answered my questions and completed my form online. Before 15 minutes passed, she had my application all finished and an email awaited me when I got home, acknowledging that my application had been received and was in the system. Good job done! Before going to Port Angeles, I had read some dispiriting reviews for all Social Security offices within reasonable traveling distance of my home. None of the locations were rated any better than the others, so I chose the one closest to me, an hours drive away. Well, I couldnt fault a single thing about my visit - leaving me wondering if the people who leave negative reviews are those having a really bad day and who take it out on government staff. People who have a good experience like mine, probably arent so motivated to write a review. Unfortunately I believe many find its easier to criticize than to give praise when its earned. Honestly, the Port Angeles staff fully deserved a five-star rating and Im happy to recommend this office to anyone. If you go there, you will be assisted by friendly, helpful and efficient staff who really care about doing a good job for their customers. Come in with a book or screen game to entertain you if you have to wait; make sure you have all your necessary papers and IDs with you; and when youre called up to the window, tell them you just read a 5-star review about their great service. Youll have them smiling at once and will soon be walking out the door with all your SSI needs resolved.
