About

McAdam advises individuals, trusts, estates, charitable organizations, corporations and government entities, including high‑net‑worth households, and provides financial planning, investment management, retirement plan consulting and related implementation support. Like many multi‑team advisers, it charges asset‑based and fixed fees and offers ongoing portfolio management alongside stand‑alone planning engagements.

The firm typically manages client accounts on a discretionary basis and allocates assets among mutual funds, ETFs, individual securities and unaffiliated independent managers, tailoring portfolios to client objectives using fundamental analysis and periodic reviews. McAdam also incorporates less liquid or specialized exposures — including direct indexing, private investment funds, structured notes, interval funds and cryptocurrency exposure via exchange‑traded vehicles or separate managers — and consolidates held‑away assets into reporting through ByAllAccounts/eMoney.

Distinctive features include a tiered weekly subscription planning product (RetireUS), an explicit Artificial Intelligence policy and monitored use of AI tools in advisory work, and optional estate‑document creation through the Wealth.com platform. The firm also receives platform software and other support from major custodians and discloses that certain supervised persons may offer brokerage or insurance products in separate commission arrangements, which it treats as potential conflicts.

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
