Meet Our Team
Mark R. Vogel, MSSC
Settlement Advisor at
I am a Settlement Advisor at Ringler. I have been helping parties with their structured settlements for more than 20 years. With a background in financial planning, my knowledge and experience across a broad range of subjects makes a real difference when navigating the complex waters of settlement planning.
I have taken part in more than 2,000 mediations in nearly every state in America. I am known for creative problem solving, developing common sense solutions, and for connecting with people on their level.
​
I am an avid soccer player and coach. I enjoy nearly every form of outdoor activity including skiing, surfing and mountain climbing. A constant reader, I am always good for a book recommendation. I live with my wife, four children and dog (an Entlebucher), in Byron Center, Michigan.

I currently serve as the Chair of the Board of Directors for the CFP Board, the oversight body of over 100,000 Certified Financial Planners. It is an honor to have been elected as the youngest Chair in the history of the profession. Furthermore, I was recognized as a Top 40 Under 40 Advisor in the country for 2020, and in InvestmentNews 'Hot List 2023', standing out among 99 other CEOs of the largest financial institutions.
I reside in Jenison with my wife, two daughters, and son. In the fall and winter, I thoroughly enjoy watching college football and basketball. During the summertime, I enjoy playing golf with a goal of golfing in all 50 states (although I still have a long way to go!). Throughout my career, I have actively served on various non-profit boards, including a private school and Christian Mission Aid, an NGO that provides healthcare services in South Sudan and Kenya.
