We are excited to announce that Gilbert & Cook’s Founder and Managing Partner, Linda Cook has been named to the 2025 Forbes ranking of Best-In-State Wealth Advisors. 

This elite list annually recognizes the country’s top-performing financial advisors who are leading the way in offering best practices and providing a high-quality experience for their clients. Top advisors are presented on a state-by-state basis, and the ranking is based on industry-specific qualitative and quantitative factors. 

Forbes Best-In-State Wealth Advisors, created by SHOOK Research. Most recently presented in April 2025 based on data gathered from 06/30/2023 to 06/30/2024. No fee was paid to be included in the ranking. A fee was paid to hold out in marketing materials.

The Forbes ranking of Best-In-State Wealth Advisors is developed by SHOOK Research. Each advisor selected by SHOOK Research is chosen based on an algorithm of qualitative and quantitative criteria, including in-person interviews, industry experience, compliance records, revenue production, and assets under management. SHOOK Research is the only rating firm that interviews advisors via telephone and in person.

Gilbert & Cook is honored to announce that we have been named one of the Top 300 Registered Investment Advisors in 2020 by the Financial Times!

The list recognizes elite advisors and independent RIA (Registered Investment Advisor) firms from across the United States. The FT 300 represents an elite group segmented by state, rather than a competitive ranking of one to 300.

Breadth of service is a key theme in this year’s list, with many advisers managing retirement planning, tax management, philanthropy and other aspects of clients’ financial lives beyond just investments. Read more about this honor on the FT.com

Disclosure: The Financial Times 300 Top Registered Investment Advisers is an independent listing produced annually by Ignites Research, a division of Money-Media, Inc., on behalf of the Financial Times (July 2020). The FT 300 is based on data gathered from RIA firms, regulatory disclosures, and the FT’s research. The listing reflected each practice’s performance in six primary areas: assets under management, asset growth, compliance record, years in existence, credentials and online accessibility. Over 750 qualified firms applied for the award, 300 of which were selected (40%). This award does not evaluate the quality of services provided to clients and is not indicative of the practice’s future performance. Neither the RIA firms nor their employees pay a fee to The Financial Times in exchange for inclusion in the FT 300.
