How Wolakota Financial Advisors bills

Payment and refund terms, quoted from the fee section of the brochure.

  • “Operating under rules set by the State of Michigan, the total annual fee is broker into quarterly totals, and each quarter, the client is invoiced for that quarterly fee.”
  • “Each investment / portfolio meeting – usually a one and a half hour session – is invoiced at the time in the amount of $250. 6 Since the fee does not cover a length of time for service, we do not invoice this fee on a quarterly basis.”
