About

Patron Partners provides discretionary and non‑discretionary investment management, financial planning and consulting, ERISA-qualified plan consulting, and the selection of third‑party money managers for individuals, high‑net‑worth clients, trusts, qualified retirement plans and institutional investors. The firm offers both ongoing portfolio management and one‑time or periodic financial consultation engagements tailored to client goals.

The firm’s investment process blends diversification with both active and passive strategies and employs fundamental, technical, charting and relative‑strength analysis, tactical asset allocation, alternatives, and the use of independent managers. Portfolios are monitored on a continuous basis, and financial consultation deliverables range from written plans to periodic reviews depending on the engagement.

As of December 31, 2025 Patron Partners reported approximately $325.7 million in assets under management across about 621 accounts managed by a two‑person ownership team, resulting in a high number of accounts per advisor. The firm also maintains platform relationships that may affect conflicts of interest: it uses OneAscent Financial Services for operations, compliance, trading and technology (with a platform fee arrangement tied to assets on the platform), and several supervised persons are licensed insurance agents who participate on the DPL insurance platform, which provides insurance product access and educational resources.

Warmer helps you compare advisors clearly — so you can choose with confidence.

Discover

Compare top advisor firms by metric, firm size, and location.

Warmer provides personalized recommendations and introductions to independent fiduciary advisors. We do not supervise advisors, manage or hold assets, guarantee performance, or provide advice about specific investments.

Each advisor listed on our site is an independent fiduciary responsible for their own advice. Warmer may receive fees from advisors for participation or referrals; these fees are paid by advisors and do not affect the fees clients pay for advisory services.

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. Please review an advisor's Form ADV and do your own diligence before entering into an advisory relationship.
