Mariner Wealth Advisors has joined the LPL Financial community, receiving support from Good Life Companies, an LPL Financial-affiliated firm. The move was driven by Ronald White's desire for greater independence and access to LPL Financial's operational support, technology, and resources. Previously, Ronald White and his team were associated with Raymond James Financial.
