About
The Private Family Advisors, LLC serves individual and high‑net‑worth clients, along with trustees, charities and, when appropriate, corporations, providing financial planning, portfolio construction and ongoing investment management. The firm operates on a fee‑only basis and offers bundled services that coordinate investment advice with tax planning, 1040 preparation through an engaged tax preparer, and estate‑planning support.
Investment work is grounded in a Modern Portfolio Theory framework that combines active and passive strategies, and the firm provides discretionary, non‑discretionary and advisement relationships. It advises on accounts it cannot execute trades for and includes assets held under advisement in its reporting and fee base, with account reviews at least quarterly and semi‑annual client meetings.
A notable distinction is that a principal of the firm is a licensed attorney and the advisory firm contracts with an affiliated law practice for legal advice and document preparation, while the advisory entity itself does not provide legal services and encourages clients to compare counsel. The firm is a small, supported team that managed approximately $80.7 million on a discretionary basis and $1.7 million non‑discretionary as of March 30, 2024 across roughly 53 clients, which shapes its integrated approach to financial, tax and estate coordination.

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.
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
