About Us
Lehner Shope Wealth Group represents a journey of growth, independence, and a steadfast commitment to our clients. Our name signifies not just our ownership, but also our dedication to providing personalized, accountable service.
Our Team
Over 50 Combined Years
of Industry Experience
Lehner Shope Wealth Group was founded in 2017 by Managing Partners Brian Lehner and Amy Shope, two seasoned professionals with more than 50 years of combined experience in the financial services industry. Their decision to join forces was driven by a shared vision to provide personalized, relationship-focused financial guidance rooted in integrity, trust, and a deep commitment to client success.
In 2018, Michelle Pommeranz joined the team, further enhancing our ability to support clients with diverse and evolving financial needs. The following year, we expanded our reach by introducing appointment-only meetings in Canton, allowing us to better serve individuals and families across Ohio.
Today, Lehner Shope Wealth Group operates out of three locations—in Canfield, Perrysburg, and Canton—each reflecting our commitment to accessible, local, and relationship-driven service. Across all offices, we remain focused on delivering thoughtful financial planning, proactive communication, and the kind of trusted guidance that empowers our clients to move forward with confidence.
