About

Life UnLocked Partners provides financial planning, investment monitoring and recommendation services to individuals, high‑net‑worth clients, families, trusts, estates and other business entities. The firm also offers SMA and sub‑advisory arrangements and reports roughly $14.8 million in assets under management across a small client base served by a three‑advisor team.

The firm’s investment process uses a structured onboarding questionnaire, goal-setting and asset allocation modeling followed by security selection and ongoing monitoring; its stated primary strategy is a value/dividend focus designed to help replace income around anticipated career changes. Once income objectives are met the firm describes a transition toward longer‑term appreciation vehicles, including venture capital, hedge and private equity fund opportunities.

Distinctive elements disclosed in the brochure include an affiliation with a law practice (the Chief Compliance Officer is the sole attorney for LSK Legal, A Professional Law Corporation) and an explicit capability to act as a sub‑advisor to other registered advisers and financial institutions, activities that are less common for firms of this size. The firm also emphasizes client education and engagement through a 24/7 mobile app, an education library, short weekly podcasts (average 12 minutes), and a rolling 30‑minute monthly one‑on‑one consulting benefit.

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
