About

Legacy Financial Advisors provides financial planning, discretionary and non-discretionary investment management, retirement plan advisory, and business consulting to individuals, families, trusts, retirement plan sponsors, and business entities. The brochure describes comprehensive and modular financial plans, implementation support for investment recommendations, ERISA-focused services for plan sponsors, and separate consulting agreements for business engagements.

The firm describes a disciplined, goals-based investment process using strategic asset allocation, diversification, periodic rebalancing, and methods such as fundamental analysis, Modern Portfolio Theory and sector rotation, with monthly internal portfolio evaluations and at least annual client reviews. Legacy offers both discretionary and non-discretionary arrangements, may utilize independent managers, and provides an account-aggregation technology platform to consolidate client financial information.

Noteworthy aspects include a small two-advisor team with a limited client base and a recent expansion to include Retirement Plan Advisory Services, which the ADV lists as a material change; the initial filing also reported zero regulatory AUM, reflecting the firm’s recent formation. Compared with many supported peers that primarily serve broad retail or high‑net‑worth individual households, Legacy places evident emphasis on retirement plan fiduciary work and business consulting and discloses a custodial relationship with a major custodian that provides research and technology benefits.
