About

Cornerstone Financial Consulting serves individuals — including high‑net‑worth clients — as well as trusts, estates, charitable entities and retirement plans. The firm provides discretionary and non‑discretionary asset management, ongoing financial planning, and ERISA plan advisory services (including limited‑scope 3(21) fiduciary work).

Investment programs are tailored to each client’s goals, time horizon and risk tolerance, with ongoing monitoring and quarterly reporting from the custodian. Cornerstone’s investment processes draw on a mix of strategies (long‑ and short‑term purchases, trading) and use technical and charting analysis, permit client‑imposed restrictions, and allow the firm to appoint independent sub‑advisers under discretionary authority.

Compared with many peers of similar size, Cornerstone is notable for sponsoring a wrap fee program and for the firm owner’s affiliated insurance practice, which is disclosed and may result in commission‑based compensation for insurance products. The owner also operates related tax and property businesses and the firm explicitly provides ERISA plan services and the ability to aggregate household accounts, features that can affect how clients’ advisory relationships are structured.

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
