In the heart of River Ranch, Marc Galey, a seasoned Edward Jones financial advisor, stands out not just for his expertise in finance but for his commitment to treating his clients like family. Marc has spent over three decades in Lafayette, LA, cultivating relationships and helping individuals and business owners alike secure their financial futures. His approach is simple yet profound: get to know each client, understand what matters most to them, and tailor a financial strategy that aligns with their unique goals and comfort levels.

Hi, my name is Marc Galey. I am originally from Morgan City, LA, and have been a Lafayette resident for over 30 years. My wife Stacey is from Lafayette. We have been married for 25 amazing years. We have two beautiful daughters, Gabrielle and Madison. I am a UL Alumni, and Gabrielle just completed her Bachelor's from UL in May. Madison will be attending UL this fall. We enjoy traveling, boating, and supporting local charities and sports teams. I also enjoy hunting, fishing, and just about anything in the outdoors.

 

From a young age, I've always had a passion for investments and helping people. However, upon finishing college, an immediate opportunity took my path in another direction. I worked with one company primarily in management for 20 years. Ultimately we grew the company and became attractive to suitors and sold. This allowed me the opportunity to pursue my passion and do what I've always been meant to do.

 

We feel our clients are family, and we focus on truly getting to know them and what is important to them. We take pride in being personable and always looking out for our client's best interests. Our desire is for our clients to be prepared financially for their future. I am blessed to have an amazing branch office administrator, Ms. Tricia Vice. I feel the above-mentioned things, along with our strength and responsiveness as a team, and the way we strive to more actively engage with our clients and their portfolios, are what sets us apart. We find it most fulfilling to help our clients reach their goals and make a positive impact on them and their families' lives.

 

Life is full of changes. Some are insignificant, others monumental. Some are unexpected, others carefully planned for. When changes occur, it's important to consider how they affect us both emotionally and financially. Often, as we struggle with changes, we forget to consider the financial consequences. This can be a costly mistake. It is wise to get a complimentary second opinion to ensure you are on track to achieve your financial goals.

 

Financial Advisors are often thought of through the singular lens of investing. However, a professional financial advisor can help you in several ways, including creating and implementing strategies and solutions to help with many of life's financial events. In deciding who to work with, consider someone who wants to truly understand you and what is important to you, someone who will listen and formulate a strategy that fits you and your comfort level, and who will strive to deliver value to you in every way possible.

 

If you are an individual living in retirement or saving for retirement, regardless of age—you can benefit from our service. In addition to individuals, business owners have unique financial opportunities, and our experience working with business owners can be beneficial for the owner(s), the business, and oftentimes the employees in a multitude of ways.

 

Our community has been so good to us. We love giving back. We are members of the Chamber of Commerce – One Acadiana.  Our office sponsors an annual food drive each spring and along with the help of the community and our clients, we provide a donation to Second Harvest Food Bank. We participate in the annual 5k Epilepsy Benefit Run. Coming up, we have organized a Toys for Tots drive for the holidays and toys can be dropped off at our office between November 1st and December 15th.  We hope to see you!

 

Located on Main Street within the River Ranch neighborhood, our office is ideally situated between CC's Coffee and Another Broken Egg. Our team loves interacting with the residents who frequent the nearby shops and restaurants and we especially love the area during the holiday season when the neighborhood’s festive spirit is in full swing. If you’re in the area, feel free to stop by, say hello, or grab a cup of coffee with us. We’re always happy to meet new neighbors and catch up with familiar faces.
