Jim Wallisch and Andrew Wallisch, who manage $325 million in brokerage and advisory assets and an additional $60 million in 401(k) assets, have switched their broker-dealer and corporate registered investment adviser affiliations to LPL Financial from Raymond James.
Joining the father-and son-team in the move are Jim Wallisch’s other son, Jonathan, and two staff members.
