Wescott Financial Advisory Group is an independent, SEC-registered, fee-only investment advisory and wealth management firm, but at the heart of our firm is our proud mission of Achieving Client Goals. It’s a mission that has driven Founder and CEO, Grant Rawdin, and the Wescott Team for over 30 years. With this inspiration, coupled with the team’s passion, we have helped countless, high-net-worth individuals, families and institutions around the country meet their unique financial goals at all stages of their lives, during years of asset accumulation to times of transition to years of retirement.
Wescott is a certified B Corp.

We believe in using business as a force for good- investing in people, communities and the planet. We believe that we all have a duty to make the world a better place.
Our Roots
The firm’s roots trace back to Duane Morris LLP, the venerable, international law firm established in 1904, where Grant spent his early career. Serving as a tax and business attorney, Grant began providing personal financial services to his legal clients and through this work is how the foundation for Wescott was created. Combining his expertise in tax-efficient and personalized wealth management with Duane Morris’ tradition of ardent client representation, Grant founded Wescott in 1987 in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. To this day, Wescott and Duane Morris sustain a supportive, mutual partnership.
Based in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, Wescott has grown organically over the decades and more recently through strategic partnerships and acquisitions. In the spring of 2015, Wescott acquired the boutique financial planning and advisory firm, Goodstein & Associates. Along with new clients, this acquisition added a Fort Washington office and a dedicated team of experts in the area to our firm. Currently, Wescott has offices in Philadelphia, Fort Washington, Miami, along with satellite offices around the country to help best serve our clients.
Our Team
Throughout our evolution, Wescott has remained focused on our driving force: to leave a lasting positive impact on the lives of our clients as we help them achieve their goals.

Wescott’s team of experts is comprised of over 30 professionals with over 30 designations and certifications amongst the group, including J.D.s, CFP®s, CFAs, CIMA®s and a Ph.D., substantive backgrounds in investments, financial planning, law, family counseling, staff psychology and taxation.
