About

Leonard Rickey Investment Advisors (LRIA) serves a mix of individual investors, trusts, estates, charitable organizations, corporations, donor-advised funds, and other business entities. The firm offers comprehensive financial planning, discretionary and non-discretionary investment management, account monitoring for held-away assets, and advisory services for donor-advised funds.

LRIA’s investment process combines fundamental, technical, and cyclical analysis and emphasizes diversified asset-allocation, separate value and growth stock portfolios (managed with Morningstar inputs), and a momentum-based ETF technical strategy alongside the use of independent managers and occasional allocations to interval funds or other less-liquid vehicles. The firm also uses AI-enabled research and operational tools under a formal Artificial Intelligence Strategy, with human advisers reviewing AI outputs before they influence recommendations.

Distinctive aspects of LRIA include an affiliation with Pathway Tax Group, PLLC — a tax and accounting firm owned by two LRIA principals — memorialized in a shared-services arrangement and disclosed as a potential conflict of interest. The firm also provides donor-advised fund advisory (with Schwab generally administering DAF assets) and maintains a multi-disciplinary advisory team that includes several advisors with accounting credentials and Big Four/large-firm audit experience.

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
