What Cross Coastal Advisors does

Cross Coastal Advisors is a privately held wealth management firm headquartered in Boston, Massachusetts, founded in 2010 as Miles Logue Financial Group and renamed in 2014. The firm delivers comprehensive financial planning services to high net worth individuals and families, business owners, entrepreneurs, medical professionals, and ultra-high net worth clients through a Private Client Group offering. Core services span investment strategy, estate planning, insurance planning, cash flow management, tax planning, retirement planning, business consulting and risk analysis, executive benefits, and employee benefits, all delivered through a proprietary Six-Step Ongoing Financial Planning Model (Listen, Analyze, Design, Implement, Ongoing Planning).

The firm operates from four offices across Massachusetts (Boston, Needham, Hingham) and New Hampshire (Bedford), with insurance licensing in 35+ states and securities licensing across 38+ jurisdictions. Its technology stack is built on third-party digital wealth management platforms — WealthScape Investor, eMoney, and Investor360 — used for client account access and financial planning. The firm is not a subsidiary of MML Investors Services, LLC, through which securities and investment advisory services are offered; it also partners with Commonwealth Financial Group for specialist resources and, as of September 2025, with Highstreet Insurance Partners to expand insurance capabilities.

Cross Coastal Advisors generates revenue through a combination of investment advisory fees on managed assets, fee-based financial planning engagements, and commissions on insurance and securities products (life, disability, long-term care, business insurance). Its go-to-market is relationship-driven, relying on partner-led advisory delivery, professional networks, community involvement, referrals, and earned media such as consecutive Forbes/SHOOK Best-In-State recognitions. The firm employs 11-50 staff organized around partners, financial advisors, relationship managers, and operational support, with multi-generational client retention (up to four generations in select families) cited as a core operating outcome.
