Independent Retirement — TPA Services

Give your team the peace of mind of a financially secure retirement.

7 out of 10 small businesses don't offer a 401(k) — not because they don't want to, but because managing one feels complicated. Independent Retirement handles all of it: plan design, compliance testing, Form 5500 filings, employee enrollment, and IRS representation if you ever need it — all managed by an assigned client success manager who knows your plan.

"I’ve worked with Independent Retirement for three years, and they’ve been an invaluable partner—not just in servicing plans, but in growing my business. Their team is proactive, responsive, and always willing to collaborate on prospecting opportunities. Whether it’s helping with plan design discussions, attending finalist meetings, or providing compliance expertise, they add real value that helps us win and retain clients. They don’t just handle the technical side—they’re invested in our success. If you’re looking for a TPA that’s more than a service provider but a true business development partner, I can’t recommend them enough."

Wealth Management Advisor and Partner at Clearview Financial Partners
★★★★★

"I’ve worked with Independent Retirement for years, and they’ve been a rock-solid partner every step of the way. Their team is incredibly responsive—when a client has a question or a challenge, they jump in with clear, practical solutions. Their deep expertise in ERISA and compliance helps our clients stay on track and avoid issues. But what really sets them apart is their partnership mindset—they’re not just a vendor; they’re a true extension of our team. If you need a TPA that delivers both service and strategy, I highly recommend them."

Charles Warren, AIF
Senior Plan Consultant at Multnomah Group, Inc.
★★★★★

"After working with Independent Retirement for over a decade, I can confidently say they are the most reliable, responsive, and knowledgeable TPA I’ve ever partnered with. The trust we’ve built over the years comes from their unmatched support—when a client issue arises, their team responds faster and with more clarity than anyone else in the industry. Having a dedicated sales consultant has been a game-changer, ensuring we always have direct access to strategic guidance and plan solutions. Their commitment to service and expertise gives me confidence that my clients are in the best hands, every time."
