About
Lee, Kelleher & Klein Wealth Management provides discretionary portfolio management and financial planning to individuals (including high‑net‑worth clients), pension and profit‑sharing plans, estates, trusts, and charitable organizations. The firm also offers retirement plan consulting and can serve as a 3(21) plan fiduciary, assisting plan sponsors with selection and ongoing monitoring of investment options.
The firm combines fundamental security analysis with modern portfolio theory and uses a mix of long‑term, short‑term, income, and hedging strategies to construct client portfolios, managing accounts on a discretionary basis with ongoing monitoring and periodic reviews. Clients may impose reasonable investment restrictions, and the firm provides semiannual or more frequent reporting and annual financial plan reviews when engaged for ongoing planning services.
Noteworthy for a recently formed advisor (established in 2024) is the scale of assets under management — approximately $252.4 million across three advisors and about 151 clients — and a multi‑office, institutional custodial relationship with Schwab Advisor Services that supports both retail portfolio management and institutional retirement plan work. The firm does not offer wrap‑fee programs or performance‑based fees and discloses a negotiable, tiered asset‑based fee structure while maintaining written fiduciary policies and a formal code of ethics.

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
