About
Cadence Planning serves individuals and families with fee‑only financial planning and discretionary investment management, and it offers tax preparation and planning through an affiliated entity, Lincoln Tax Professionals, LLC. The firm’s planning services cover retirement, cash‑flow and tax planning, portfolio and estate reviews, and insurance analysis, and it states that it does not accept commissions.
The firm’s investment approach favors passive, low‑turnover asset‑class strategies implemented with ETFs, no‑load mutual funds and bonds, with allocations tailored to each client’s tax situation, risk tolerance and time horizon. Cadence Planning typically manages accounts on a discretionary basis, may delegate implementation to third‑party asset managers (TAMPs), and acts as a fiduciary for retirement accounts.
A distinctive feature is the formal affiliation with a tax‑preparation practice and the disclosure that the firm’s principal may recommend that affiliated service; the Brochure also notes the principal spends roughly 60% of his time on the affiliated tax business, which the firm identifies as a potential conflict of interest. Other noteworthy operational details include a fixed annual planning fee structure tiered to client net worth (with a stated minimum), a practice of executing trades on an individual rather than aggregated basis, and no participation in wrap programs.

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 introductions are provided by FinanceHQ LLC (“FHQ”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Warmer and an SEC-registered investment advisor. We receive compensation from certain participating advisors for introductions or referrals. This creates a conflict of interest because we have an incentive to recommend advisors who compensate us, including those who pay us more. You pay no fee to use our matching service, and advisor fees are not increased because of a referral or introduction. We do not review the ongoing performance of advisors, manage or hold assets, guarantee performance, or provide advice about specific investments.
By using our service, you agree to our Terms of Service and Advisory Agreement, and acknowledge our Privacy Policy. Please review FHQ’s ADV Part 2A and Form CRS. Logos provided by Logo.dev
