Who We Are

Greg Theis is the owner of Legacy Financial Services, Inc., and has more than 30 years of experience in the industry. He is passionate about his business and his clients and strives to build long-term relationships with them and their families by providing retirement income planning guidance when they are close to retirement or looking for guidance during retirement.

Greg has helped hundreds of families with retirement, investment, legacy, tax and wealth planning. By identifying potential tax savings, coordinating legacy plans for the client and beneficiaries, and implementing and managing personalized investment strategies, he helps his clients pursue their individual and long-term financial objectives.

Greg graduated with a B.A. degree in Business from Governor’s State University, IL. He holds the Chartered Financial Consultant (ChFC®) designation, which provides him the knowledge of both financial planning and insurance to help with the wealth management needs of retirees in multiple states. His other industry credentials include Chartered Life Underwriter (CLU®) and a licensed life insurance agent with experience in long-term care alternatives. He is also an investment advisor representative and has obtained the Series 63 and 65 financial licenses.

Greg is a native of Illinois. He is married with three children and has 4 energetic grandchildren. He has been a member of Our Lady of Woods Church for more than 28 years and often helps or hosts with retreats.

Bob was born and raised in Peoria, Illinois. He attended Peoria Notre Dame High School and his family has been members of the St. Thomas parish in Peoria for many years. Bob began working in the financial world with Legacy soon after finishing college and looks forward to servicing new & existing clients within the Chicagoland area and Central Illinois.

Bob graduated with a B.A. degree in Finance from The University of Iowa. He currently holds a Series 7 & Series 66 license, but more importantly, he is an Investment Advisor Representative. This means he has a fiduciary responsibility to his clients. This relationship relies on the necessity that a financial advisor must act on behalf of a client in a way the client would act for himself if he had the requisite knowledge and skills to do so. Bob exercises his duties of loyalty, care, and full disclosure in his relationships with his clients. He does this with educational seminars, newsletters, phone calls and annual tactical & strategy sessions. Bob is also licensed in Life & Health Insurance allowing him to accommodate his client’s vast array of needs.

When Bob is not studying or working with his clients, he is very active and enjoys playing sports like golf, basketball, and tennis to name a few. He also likes to travel with friends and family, especially to go hiking in the summers and snowboarding in the winter. He also is an avid music fan and loves attending concerts and festivals.
