About

Cornerstone Advisory serves individuals, retirement-plan participants, trusts, estates, charitable organizations and business clients, offering portfolio management alongside broader financial planning and advisory services. The firm’s brochure highlights a proprietary “Financial Engineering” process that compiles an economic model of a client’s situation for use in reviews and planning.

The firm describes its investment analysis as fundamentally driven, using research sources such as corporate filings and rating services, and recommends common vehicles including mutual funds, bonds and equities. Cornerstone states that client relationships are primarily non‑discretionary and that its comprehensive work typically includes substantial non‑securities advice — for example, on tax, insurance and estate planning — alongside securities recommendations.

Several features in the brochure are atypical for this peer group: it discloses receiving commissions and selling insurance products, sponsors private oil and gas funds, and reports a high client load relative to reported securities assets (about 240 clients and roughly $25 million of non‑discretionary securities assets). The firm also documents multiple solicitor/referral relationships and presents both AUM‑style fee language and a description of a one‑time advisory fee, a combination of practices that departs from the common supported‑firm model.

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 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
