When an advisor leaves and their accounts are reassigned to you, the transition requires sensitivity, strategy, and respect for the client relationship that preceded you. These clients may have had deep trust in their former advisor, and any attempt to immediately assert control or change how things are done can damage the relationship before it begins. 

 

Instead of declaring, “You’re my client now,” approach them as if they were newly referred—someone you're hoping to earn, not inherit. Start by learning as much as possible about the client’s history, goals, and preferences, using CRM notes and internal records to guide your outreach. 

 

By demonstrating empathy, professionalism, and a genuine interest in the client’s well-being, you can build trust over time and help ensure they choose to stay with the firm—not because they have to, but because they want to.


Finsum: In your first meeting, listen more than you speak, focus on continuity, and resist any urge to immediately pitch new products.
