About

United Capital provides national financial planning and discretionary investment management to a broad mix of clients, including individual and high-net-worth households, retirement plans, and corporate or institutional accounts. The firm also offers sub-advisory and consulting services and operates a technology and practice platform, FinLife Partners, which onboards and supports other independent investment advisors.

Investment teams work from client-specific financial plans to set asset allocation and select between United Capital-managed strategies, third‑party managers, or separately managed accounts, and they typically manage accounts on a discretionary basis with custody options that commonly include Fidelity and Schwab. United Capital’s platform supports customization — including ESG and faith‑based portfoliooptions — access to vetted alternative investments (via providers such as iCapital), and limited Variable Subaccount allocation services for certain clients.

Compared with many large enterprise advisers, United Capital is notable for the breadth of its affiliate network and non‑standard businesses: it is affiliated with a law firm (Creative Planning Legal, P.A.) and a retail trust company (Creative Planning Trust Company), operates lending and referral relationships for bank and securities‑based loans, and maintains a suite of related entities (including SageView and Baseline) that provide cross‑referrals. The firm also provides technology, marketing, and sub‑advisory services to other advisers through FinLife Partners and retains certain legacy arrangements (e.g., wrap program accounts and third‑party class‑action claim services) that can affect how specific client relationships are handled.

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
