A complete list of active advisors currently associated with Advisory Advocates LLC

Warmer can help you find a great advisor at Advisory Advocates LLC or one who fits your needs even better.

Advisory Advocates LLC provides financial planning, financial consulting, discretionary portfolio management, and retirement plan consulting to individuals, high‑net‑worth clients, retirement plans, trusts, estates and business entities. The firm’s team of seven advisors manages roughly $158.6 million for about 243 clients and may recommend that all or part of a client’s assets be placed with third‑party investment advisers. The firm’s process begins with a data‑gathering discovery to identify goals, risk tolerance and time horizon, followed by individualized, discretionary portfolio management using fundamental and technical analysis, strategic and tactical asset allocation, and periodic rebalancing. It offers written financial plans to planning clients, conducts ongoing account reviews, and works directly with clients to select and monitor third‑party managers when those are recommended. Advisory Advocates is co‑owned by Luminist Holdings and has ownership links to other SEC‑registered advisers, including RM Investment Strategies and Luminist Capital, and it discloses that it hires Luminist Capital for some client accounts and receives a portion of third‑party adviser fees — a relationship the firm says it manages through disclosures and fiduciary procedures. The firm also recently became SEC‑registered in March 2026, added retirement plan consulting (limited ERISA Section 3(21) services), and notes that some owners are insurance‑licensed and may recommend insurance products for separate commission income.

Not sure where to start?

We'll help you think it through—whether you ultimately need an advisor or not. Warmer helps you compare advisors clearly, so you can choose with confidence.

Find your advisor

For advisor listings, we rely on sources including public filings and data provided by advisors, and we cannot guarantee that all information is current or accurate. Advisors are independent and may not have reviewed or updated this information. Please review an advisor's Form ADV and do your own diligence before deciding whether to work with them.

Advisor matching and referrals are provided by FinanceHQ LLC ("FHQ"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Warmer and an SEC-registered investment adviser. We may be compensated by participating advisors. You pay no fee to use our matching service, and advisor fees are not increased because of a referral. We do not supervise advisors, manage or hold assets, guarantee performance, or provide advice about specific investments.

By using our service, you agree to the Warmer Terms of Service and FHQ Advisory Agreement, and acknowledge Warmer's Privacy Policy. Please review FHQ's ADV Part 2A and Form CRS. Logos provided by Logo.dev
