Steven Schoenberger JD
“As an attorney, I enjoyed helping people secure their futures. I grew comfortable having important, but often difficult conversations. Becoming a financial planner was a natural transition for me because I am able to continue to work with clients, and have more exciting and ongoing discussions about their planning.”
Steven joined Affiance Financial in August, 2015. As part of the Affiance team, he helps clients develop long-term strategic financial plans, maintain investment portfolios, and use retirement plans, life insurance, and other tools to work toward achieving financial independence. Steven aims to work with young families, entrepreneurs, professionals, and business owners to address their planning needs—ranging from budgeting and saving, to risk management, to strategies for protecting and passing assets on to future generations.
Prior to joining Affiance Financial, Steven practiced law at a boutique estate-planning firm in Chicago, and also worked in life insurance planning. Steven holds a law degree from the University of Minnesota Law School and an undergraduate degree from the University of Wisconsin-Madison.
