ORGANIZATION
MH & Associates prides itself in being a Registered Investment Advisor (RIA) with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and is regulated under the Investment advisors Act of 1940. We are a "fee only" advisor which means that we do not earn commissions or other similar payments. We are a pure investment management firm. Our focus is building quality portfolios, generating good returns, and providing excellent service to our loyal clients. Our research and selection of investments is based on independent and objective analysis. Further, we think it is important that clients have a personal relationship with those who are entrusted with managing their investment assets. J. Robert Meichelbock and John Heilman founded the firm in 1981.

IN MEMORIAM
Joseph Robert Meichelbock (1937-2017) - Founding Partner
As a founding partner of MH & Associates, J. Robert Meichelbock will be greatly missed. "Bob" and John started MH in 1981 and their hard work has grown this firm into what it is today. The stock market was one of his great loves and he watched it closely until his last days. Bob was a brilliant investment mind and his stamp on the company can continually be felt through his son Daniel taking his reigns. Bob always "did the right thing for our clients" and we endeavour to adhere to that principal.
