About

Meridian Financial Partners LLC provides personalized asset management and ongoing financial planning to individuals, high‑net‑worth clients, trusts, charitable organizations and pension plans, managing approximately $627.6 million in client assets according to its brochure. The firm describes its predominant service as asset management integrated with financial planning throughout the client relationship rather than as a one‑time deliverable.

The firm’s investment approach emphasizes asset allocation as the primary driver of performance and typically manages client portfolios on a discretionary basis while allowing clients to place reasonable restrictions and express investment preferences. Meridian combines its own research with third‑party research and consulting, discloses use of Horizon Investments research, and recommends Schwab for custody and trade execution.

Noteworthy among peers, Meridian advertises third‑party ratings and explicitly discloses receipt of research and consulting from Horizon Investments, a relationship the brochure notes could create incentives tied to research access. The firm also manages all client assets in‑house (it does not allocate to outside managers) and details use of a wider set of investment tools and specialized hourly services—such as margin, short sales, REITs, MLPs, and expert‑witness or divorce‑related engagements—that some team firms do not typically emphasize.

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
