About

Madison Partners provides wealth management, discretionary portfolio management, and financial planning to a broad client base that includes individual and high‑net‑worth clients, trusts, estates, charitable organizations, businesses, and retirement plans. The firm also offers retirement‑plan advisory services (including ERISA 3(21) and 3(38) arrangements) and manages certain insurance policy sub‑accounts on behalf of financial institutions.

The firm’s investment approach is customized and primarily long‑term focused, building portfolios that typically rely on ETFs and mutual funds while also using individual equities, fixed income, alternatives, and retained legacy positions when appropriate. Madison Partners often implements client strategies through third‑party sub‑advisers and model portfolios, conducting ongoing monitoring and annual reviews as client objectives or circumstances change.

Madison Partners’ disclosures highlight several distinctions: it generally bills on a percentage‑of‑assets basis rather than offering fixed‑fee arrangements, and custodian statements show separate line items for the firm’s advisory fee and any sub‑adviser strategy fee. The firm also coordinates estate‑document services through a third‑party platform (Wealth.com), maintains an affiliated tax‑preparation business (Stratus Tax), and discloses these relationships and potential conflicts of interest in its brochure; it further notes it does not require a minimum account size.

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
