With offices in Eagle and Westlake Village, California, West Oak is well-positioned to serve high-net-worth families across the western U.S. The experienced team brings strong client relationships, a seasoned market presence, and a commitment to fiduciary care.

West Oak’s clients will benefit from an expanded range of services, including investment management, tax and estate planning, trust services, and financial education for younger generations. Known for its multigenerational relationships and personalized service, West Oak’s alignment with Mercer Advisors makes this partnership a natural fit.

Eagle Wealth manages around $350 million in assets for 300 clients.

Founded in 2008 by Chad and Cami Staskal, Eagle Wealth is known for its personalized financial planning and its principle of “Wealth Without Worry,” prioritizing strong client relationships.
