About
Vital Signs Financial Services LLC serves individuals, small businesses and nonprofit organizations, with income tax preparation and tax-focused financial planning as the firm’s primary services. The firm also provides investment advice and asset-management services on a consultative basis, with implementation and custody remaining under client control.
The firm’s investment approach emphasizes tax-efficient planning and a strategic, core-and-satellite asset allocation that favors passively managed index funds and ETFs with selectively added active funds. Clients make the final investment selections (the firm will not accept discretionary trading authority), and the firm bills primarily by fixed, hourly and retainer fees rather than the percentage‑of‑assets model common among many peers.
Noteworthy characteristics include an integrated quarterly retainer product, the “Advanced Financial Life Support” (AFLS), which combines ongoing planning, tax preparation and periodic reporting, and a free initial three‑hour exploratory meeting. The firm describes itself as fee‑only and not accepting commissions or selling financial products, while its advisory scope nonetheless identifies a broad range of investment vehicle types it may recommend.

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.
