Waldron Partners began with one person earning trust, one relationship at a time. It still works that way.
What started as Bob Waldron's career in financial services became a family business, then a firm led by his son, Peter. Through every chapter, the way we serve people hasn't changed.
From one advisor in New Jersey to a family firm in the Bay Area, here is how Waldron Partners came to be.
1975
In 1975, New Jersey native Bob Waldron stepped into the world of financial services. Ambitious and resourceful, he built his career in the insurance business, learning from mentors and becoming a sought-after advisor and a successful corporate manager. From the start, he worked to earn trust and build lasting relationships with the people he served.
The move west
That reputation carried him across the country, when he was invited to hire and train financial planners in the San Francisco Bay Area. He brought the philosophy he had become known for: unquestionable integrity, thorough client education, and compassionate personal service.
Father and son
As the company grew, Bob became a mentor to his son, Peter, whose love of helping people and skill with numbers led him to join his father. Peter brought fresh energy, new technology, and new ways to serve clients. Together they co-founded today's Waldron Partners, and spent fifteen years building it into a thriving family business.

2020
As Bob looked toward retirement, the clients he had served for years chose to stay with Peter, a reflection of the trust both father and son had built. In 2020, the torch was passed, and Peter stepped up to lead the firm into its next chapter.
Years of relationships, since 1975.
Today
Waldron Partners carries the same entrepreneurial spirit that started it all. Peter leads a select team of experienced advisors serving families, business owners, and organizations who value thoughtful planning and a closely held relationship. Giving back to the community, long a way of life in the Waldron family, remains part of how the firm works.
A firm foundation for tomorrow, so life can be lived fully today.
