Summit Consultants, Inc.

Upon graduating from law school in 1977, Steve Spoltman joined a mid-sized law firm in Fort Wayne to engage in private practice. After a year at the firm, he decided to enter corporate law and accepted a position as corporate counsel for Midwestern United Life Insurance Company (MULIC). At MULIC, he developed life insurance products designed to meet the needs of MULIC's clients and was introduced to the concept of financial planning, in its infancy at that time as it was typical to utilize a stock broker, insurance agent, accountant, attorney, and so on without any one person taking responsibility for the comprehensive plan.
