The faces of Wealth Management Robert A. Mauk, CFP® Joseph A. Chornyak, Sr., CFP® - Managing Partner Joseph A. Chornyak, Jr., CFP® Shortcuts don’t lead to the best financial planning, and that’s why Chornyak & Associates doesn’t use them.

Developed over 40 years, Chornyak uses proprietary processes and systems to research, analyze, select and monitor recommended investments. With a thorough understanding of each client’s financial picture, Chornyak builds comprehensive planning strategies to help clients achieve their dreams.

It takes more time to ask lots of questions, gather detailed information and act as a true partner, but Chornyak believes that’s the best way to be sure every financial decision supports their clients’ goals and desires with broad diversification and proper investment allocation. This disciplined approach is based on one simple belief: investors rarely reap above-average returns by taking unnecessary risks.

Chornyak manages over $1.1 Billion in assets for over 1,000 individuals and businesses nationwide. The Columbus firm grew its business through referrals from satisfied clients who recommended its customized, comprehensive financial planning to friends and colleagues.

The purpose of seeking and retaining experienced tax counsel, like Terry Grady and Kate Dodson, is to learn the seriousness of the situation at hand and to be guided into the best possible resolution at the least overall costs. That objective drove Terry Grady to start this boutique tax practice in 2003 and continues to be the firm’s philosophy for legal and tax representation today.

The firm’s tax representation covers all aspects of IRS tax controversies, including audits, appeals and tax litigation, tax planning and business structuring issues, asset protection planning, complex IRS liability/collection representation, international tax planning and disclosures, and federal white collar criminal tax defense.
