How does the delta/fidelity program with its fee structure compare to hiring a dedicated local financial advisor?

If I just let the investments run with its current lifecycle fund, am I paying management fees that are hidden? My local guy says I can bring that all under him and have a more focused and personalized strategy for a 1.3% annual fee.

What do you guys think?
After having my $$ managed for a few years by an private investment group, I did some comparing and realized a S&P 500 index fund beat them 4/5 years. I dropped them and put 80% in the Fidelity S&P 500 index fund and never looked back. Doing just fine, no worry either.
