LPL swipes two former Cambridge advisors in Iowa
LPL has extended its reach in the Midwest by onboarding two advisors in Iowa.
The firm announced Wednesday that it has welcomed advisors Timothy Heisterkamp and Max Neese at Journey Financial into its broker-dealer, RIA, and custodial platforms.
The duo, previously affiliated with Cambridge, manages around $200 million in assets encompassing advisory, brokerage, and retirement plans.
Operating out of Jefferson, Iowa, Heisterkamp transitioned into financial advising in 1998 following a stint as an economics teacher. Heisterkamp’s influence extended into Neese’s career choice during a guest lecture at his high school, sparking Neese’s interest in financial planning.
“I was captivated by the concept of the time value of money and how investing may help your wealth potentially grow over time,” Neese said in a statement.
Neese, having shadowed Heisterkamp during college, joined the firm two years ago, marking a step in the practice’s succession planning. Alongside Registered Assistant Kim Bendickson, the team emphasizes a client-centric approach, offering services from education planning to estate planning.

Neese and Heisterkamp’s transition to LPL was motivated by the potential for increased efficiency and enhanced service capabilities noted during a visit to LPL’s headquarters.

Neese highlighted the dynamic nature of their client interactions, emphasizing their commitment to exceptional service.
