About Us

At Empress Investment Group, we believe that no one financial strategy fits everyone, which is why every client receives personalized attention—from planning and execution to ongoing follow-up.

Our proactive approach allows us to develop strategies that address your unique financial goals using the most efficient and effective methods available.

​

As a fiduciary-based financial advisory firm in Los Angeles, we are committed to always placing the interests of our clients ahead of our own. Whether you’re focused on retirement planning, investment management, tax strategies, or estate planning, we design solutions that align with your long-term vision and values.

We understand that life comes with financial challenges, and we strive to anticipate and address them before they occur, helping keep you on track toward a secure, purpose-driven financial future.

​

At the core of our mission is education. At Empress Investment Group, we believe financial education is the key to empowering women and families to make confident, informed decisions that protect and grow their wealth.

About You

You’ve always strived to make the right financial choices, and now you want a clear, comprehensive strategy to ensure your wealth lasts a lifetime. You don’t want to make costly mistakes, pay unnecessary fees, or be left without a comprehensive financial plan.

Our Services & Solutions

At Empress Investment Group, we know that no two individuals have the same financial picture—assets, income, expenses, age, and risk tolerance all vary. That’s why every client deserves a customized financial plan designed around their unique goals and lifestyle.

​

As a fiduciary financial advisory firm, we aim to help you not only build wealth, but also manage and protect it through changing economic conditions. Our commitment is to form long-lasting, personal relationships with each client while removing the guesswork from the financial planning process.

​

Whether you’re an individual, family, or business owner, our role is to create clarity and confidence so you can focus on what matters most.
