Mission Statement
The Maidman Group believes that good relationships are built through teamwork and involvement, delivered through our advisors, wealth management client associates and access to the global investment capabilities of Merrill and the banking convenience of Bank of America. We want to be your primary source for financial advice and guidance. And we want you to value the dedication and diligence offered to you at each step of the financial planning process.
Welcome

Rooted in our deep appreciation of clients’ desires for lifestyles and legacies, our team has long crafted goals-based strategies for a loyal clientele in the Pittsburgh area and nationwide. Our team sees clients’ complex financial pictures as puzzles that can benefit from careful analysis – and each client as a person, not a portfolio.
“I believe we bring an exceptional measure of financial insight and passion to what we do. Put simply, we try to help clients in ways they may not expect, but certainly deserve. We talk frequently to clients – and visit them in their homes and offices. By immersing ourselves in the details of clients’ lives and being extremely proactive, we can help clients anticipate different scenarios and prepare for positive outcomes,” Scott Maidman explains.
Our team serves high-net-worth individuals it admires for their achievements and values – parents of growing families, owners of growing businesses (some with 401k plans), physicians, corporate executives, and clients’ grown children. Conversations with clients revolve around their families and their concerns – from Social Security, college funding, and long-term care strategies, to downsizing or buying a second home.

About Us
Philosophy

When it comes to investments, our team diversifies each client's portfolio across asset classes – typically with stocks, bonds, and the funds of selected money managers. With no cookie-cutter strategies, our team crafts each portfolio from the ground up, to help achieve income generation, growth, or a blend. Accompanying each recommendation is an explanation of why investments are chosen, possible tax consequences and costs involved. Beyond risk-managed investing, our team offers access to Bank of America, N.A. – for corporate treasury services, securities-based and residential lending. And whether a client wishes to grow wealth or preserve it for the next generation, efforts are often coordinated with clients' CPAs and attorneys – to align tax-minimization and estate planning strategies.
