About
Lifetime Financial Advisors provides personalized financial planning and written investment recommendations for individuals, trusts, estates, charitable organizations, corporations and participants in employer-sponsored retirement plans (Participant Retirement Program). The firm does not maintain custody of client assets and does not manage client accounts on a discretionary basis, instead delivering written plans and recommendations for clients to implement.
LFA’s process begins with interviews and detailed questionnaires to produce a written financial plan addressing retirement, tax, estate, insurance and college funding needs, and it typically favors mutual funds—often flexible-objective funds—selected for manager tenure, risk management and transparency. Unlike many investment-manager firms, LFA commonly bills for advice on an hourly, flat or retainer basis rather than charging fees based on a percentage of client assets.
A noteworthy feature disclosed in the brochure is that certain associated persons are licensed insurance agents and registered representatives who may implement plan recommendations through broker/dealers and insurance products, generating commissions or advisory relationships through those channels. Combined with LFA’s emphasis on non-discretionary planning and Participant Retirement Program recommendations, these arrangements and fee practices distinguish its business model from many peers in the investment-manager category.

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 referrals are provided by FinanceHQ LLC ("FHQ"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Warmer and an SEC-registered investment adviser. We may be compensated by participating advisors. You pay no fee to use our matching service, and advisor fees are not increased because of a referral. We do not supervise advisors, manage or hold assets, guarantee performance, or provide advice about specific investments.
By using our service, you agree to the Warmer Terms of Service and FHQ Advisory Agreement, and acknowledge Warmer's Privacy Policy. Please review FHQ's ADV Part 2A and Form CRS. Logos provided by Logo.dev
