About
Guardian Advisors, LLC is a single-advisor independent advisory firm that provides personalized financial planning and discretionary investment management to individuals, retirement plans, trusts, estates, charitable organizations and small businesses. The firm offers comprehensive planning (including cash flow, retirement, education and estate planning), hourly engagements, tax-related advice and ongoing asset management, and currently reports approximately $2.68 million in assets under management across a very small number of client relationships.
The firm’s investment approach emphasizes strategic asset allocation with a core-and-satellite structure, using passively managed index funds and ETFs as the core and selectively adding active managers where the firm sees opportunity; portfolios are globally diversified and an Investment Policy Statement is used to document client objectives. Guardian accepts limited power-of-attorney discretionary trading authority, places trades through custodians and does not act as custodian itself, with clients receiving direct custodial statements and periodic written reports.
What is uncommon for a small independent RIA is Guardian’s overlap with brokerage and insurance activities and its formal affiliation structure: the firm is licensed to sell annuities, insurance and other commissioned products and has a material relationship with a related accounting firm and a joint partnership (Kanter Wealth Management) to provide planning services. The founder’s prior broker‑dealer and branch management experience informs the firm’s ability to implement both advisory solutions and brokerage/insurance products, a mix that is atypical among similarly sized independent advisers.

Forms ADV
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
