About

JVL Wealth Strategies provides financial planning, wealth management and investment advisory services to individuals (including high‑net‑worth clients), trusts, estates, charitable organizations, and certain business entities. The firm offers discretionary portfolio management alongside comprehensive planning work, and recommends a wide range of investments including mutual funds, ETFs, individual securities, annuities, private real estate, private equity and private credit funds.

The firm’s investment process emphasizes asset allocation, a combination of fundamental and technical security analysis, periodic rebalancing, and a mix of passive and active strategies. JVL also allocates portions of client portfolios to third‑party separately managed account (SMA) managers under tri‑party agreements, describing a formal manager selection and ongoing monitoring process and documenting SMA account features and manager discretion as part of its oversight.

Distinctive aspects of the firm include its size and client mix—approximately $784 million in AUM managed by a seven‑advisor team for about 186 clients, implying a relatively large asset base per client compared with many peers. The brochure also discloses a handful of less‑typical practices for a team firm: limited bill‑paying/custodial services and occasional personal fiduciary roles for employees (trustee/executor) for select clients, an explicit prohibition on receiving compensation from product sponsors, and documented cybersecurity controls and insurance covering third‑party technology risks.

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
