About
Barrister provides tailored financial planning, investment advisory, insurance consulting, and retirement plan consultancy and management to individuals, families, trusts, charitable organizations, pension and profit-sharing plans, and businesses. The firm manages roughly $97 million in client assets across about 137 client relationships and offers ongoing planning and portfolio management services for individual and institutional clients.
The firm follows a goal-based, behavioral finance approach with a top-down macroeconomic overlay and modest tactical tilts, implementing portfolios primarily via Exchange Traded Funds while occasionally holding mutual funds, individual equities or bonds to meet client-specific needs. Barrister generally manages client accounts on a discretionary basis, addresses tax-sensitive situations and retirement-plan rollovers, and acknowledges its fiduciary duties when advising retirement accounts under Department of Labor standards.
Barrister is notable among peers for operating an affiliated insurance entity through which its professionals are separately licensed to sell life and health insurance and may receive commissions for those sales, a conflict the firm discloses and manages. It also provides ERISA-focused services to retirement plans — including non‑discretionary 3(21) consulting and discretionary 3(38) plan management and participant education — and documents an explicit policy not to use artificial intelligence to generate investment recommendations.

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.
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
