Who Are We?

It takes a family to know a family and for over four decades, the Alford Family has helped individuals, families, and business owners achieve their financial goals and protect what matters most.

At Alford Family Financial & Co. we’re a family-owned and operated business—and when you become a client, you become part of that family too.

We understand the milestones, challenges, and decisions that shape a family’s financial journey—because we’ve lived them ourselves.

Can we help? Give a read below, and you’ll find that the proof is in the family.

Mike Alford

Managing Partner / Wealth Specialist

Mike’s greatest fulfillment in his career comes from helping clients navigate their financial journey with clarity and confidence. As a financial advisor with Alford Financial since 2002, he has worked with families and business owners at all stages of life—helping them define their goals, build strategies, and make informed decisions about their financial futures.

With decades of experience and the personal perspective of a father to two young adults now forging their own financial paths, Mike brings both professional insight and genuine understanding to every conversation. He knows that financial advice is most valuable when it’s grounded in real life—whether that means starting out, growing a business, or preparing for retirement.

Mike's philosophy is simple: “Small Account? BIG Advice!”. Unlike large institutions that often prioritize account size, he believes that everyone deserves thoughtful, high-quality financial guidance. As a small, local practice, he is proud to serve his community with integrity & care, and build's his approach with clients on trust, transparency, and long-term relationships.

Outside the office, Mike stays active in slo-pitch and curling, and loves camping with close friends and family. He’s a devoted husband and proud father. His appreciation for the simple joys of home life was passed down from his grandfather—a local business owner himself—who taught Mike the fine art of puttering around the house.
