SAN DIEGO, June 05, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- LPL Financial LLC announced today that financial advisors William “Bill” Curtis Loomis, III, CFP®, William Curtis “Curt” Loomis, IV and Justin K. Hitt of Loomis Wealth Management have joined LPL Financial’s broker-dealer, Registered Investment Advisor (RIA) and custodial platforms. The team reported serving approximately $180 million in advisory, brokerage and retirement plan assets* and joins LPL from L.M. Kohn & Company.

Based in Harrisonburg, Va., Bill and Curt founded Loomis Wealth Management in 2010 with the goal of empowering individuals and families to achieve their financial goals through comprehensive, fiduciary-driven wealth management. The father and son team have a combined six decades of financial industry experience and have earned a reputation in the Shenandoah Valley for their holistic approach to wealth management. Hitt, who spent a decade as an educator for the Rockingham County Public Schools before transitioning to the financial industry, joined the team in 2023. Together they offer a full range of investment management, financial planning and risk management services, allowing them to address all aspects of their clients’ financial lives.

“We take the time to get to know our clients, their lifestyle, their family and their financial aspirations. Our personal service does more than just build bonds; it gives us a greater sense of how to work for our clients,” Curt said. “We appreciate that just as no two snowflakes are alike, no two investment portfolios will be identical. Who our clients are, how they live and their fiscal goals provide insight into how we can help.”

Looking for more autonomy, improved technology offerings and the opportunity to provide an elevated client experience, the Loomis Wealth Management team turned to LPL.

"LPL is a forward-thinking firm, and one aspect that particularly attracted us is their ongoing investment in resources to help advisors provide a next-level client experience — specifically their integrated and open architecture technology platform which will enable us to access everything with a single sign-on,” said Hitt. ”LPL’s commitment to its advisors, paired with our personal and in-depth approach, will allow us to serve our clients and build our business the way we envision.”

Scott Posner, LPL Managing Director, Business Development, said, “We welcome Bill, Curt and Justin to LPL and congratulate them on this milestone in the evolution of their practice.
