Hightower, a leading independent wealth management firm in the U.S., today announced an agreement for Lexington Wealth Management (Lexington) to join Hightower Signature Wealth (HTSW). Lexington brings approximately $3.2 billion in assets under management*, expanding HTSW’s reach and resources. Upon close, HTSW will represent more than $29 billion in assets under management* across more than 25 locations.

Headquartered in Lexington, Mass., Lexington’s momentum has been driven by high-touch client service, educational programming, and strong referral networks within retirees, entrepreneurial and CEO communities. The practice also maintains a commitment to community engagement, supporting charitable organizations and local arts initiatives.

“Lexington is representative of the advisors we intentionally look to bring to HTSW – those with a clear client focus and a desire to grow within a more integrated model,” said Larry Restieri, CEO of Hightower. “As we scale the practice, we are dedicated to enhancing how advisors operate and delivering a more seamless, comprehensive experience for clients.”

Lexington includes a team of 25 professionals, including 16 advisors. The practice operates with a collaborative, team-based model grounded in deep listening and delivering highly personalized advice.

“We established Lexington on the principle that effective wealth management combines thoughtful financial guidance and a genuine understanding of what clients are experiencing in their lives,” said Kristine Porcaro, Senior Managing Partner at Lexington Wealth Management. “With HTSW, we’ll continue to deliver that balance, with increasing scale and resources to support the needs of our clients for years to come.”

As part of HTSW, Lexington will gain access to expanded capabilities, including enhanced investment solutions and operational support, enabling more efficient workflows and freeing advisors to serve more client relationships.

“One of the most important factors in this decision was ensuring long-term stability for our clients and employees,” said Mike Tucci, Senior Managing Partner at Lexington Wealth Management. “Joining HTSW preserves the personalized, relationship-driven approach that defines our practice, while strengthening the overall organization.”

HTSW continues to drive growth following its recent acquisition of Journey Strategic Wealth and the addition of five advisory practices earlier this year. Hightower expects to announce additional acquisitions into the HTSW brand later this quarter.

Today, Hightower’s nationwide community includes 652 advisors across 33 states and the District of Columbia. As of December 31, 2025, Hightower and its affiliates manage approximately $352 billion in assets.
