About
C.D. Allen Wealth Management, LLC provides discretionary investment management and financial planning to individuals, high‑net‑worth clients, trusts, businesses, and charitable organizations. The firm constructs customized portfolios using equities, fixed income, mutual funds, ETFs, REITs and cash, and offers one‑time or ongoing financial planning engagements.
The adviser’s approach is primarily long‑term focused but allows for short‑term trading and options strategies when appropriate, and employs charting, fundamental, quantitative and technical analysis. Portfolios are tailored to each client’s investment policy statement and risk tolerance, with the firm willing to hold meaningful cash positions or impose client‑directed restrictions where feasible.
Compared with many independent solo advisers, the firm’s principal is both an attorney and a CPA and maintains a separate legal practice and consulting business that provides fractional and full‑time CFO services, with related fees received through the advisory entity. The firm also works with business and charitable clients and may recommend third‑party advisers during the planning process (without accepting compensation), a mix of services and affiliations that is uncommon among peers.

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
