About
Northern California Fiduciary Advisors is a small independent registered investment adviser serving individuals (including high‑net‑worth clients), non‑profit endowments and foundations, corporations, and other businesses. The firm provides discretionary portfolio management, comprehensive written financial planning (fixed‑fee and hourly), and stand‑alone investment consultations.
The adviser applies Modern Portfolio Theory and fundamental analysis to construct diversified asset allocations, typically implemented with equities, mutual funds, ETFs, and fixed‑income securities under discretionary authority. For eligible clients the firm may recommend alternative investments as a supplemental allocation—generally limited to about 10% of a portfolio and offered only to accredited or qualified investors—and conducts ongoing monitoring with formal reviews at least annually.
What is distinctive about the firm is its common ownership with an operating law practice: the founder and sole member maintains an active California law practice and devotes roughly 20% of her time to providing legal counsel, and the two firms may refer clients to one another without formal referral agreements. The firm discloses this dual legal/financial relationship to clients and describes procedures intended to manage the potential conflicts of interest that can arise from those affiliations; it operates as a solo practitioner with roughly $16 million in assets under management and a small client base.

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.
