Caleb Lennon

I’m Paulo Lopes, an environmental attorney turned CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER® professional and the founder of Woodmont Financial Partners. Most people I work with are DIY investors, high earners, and business owners who want a clear plan and an objective second set of eyes, without commissions or an asset-based fee. You should not have to hand over your investments to get good advice. My work is tax-aware and practical. We focus on the decisions that move the needle, including multi-year tax planning, withholding and estimated tax planning, Roth conversion strategy, retirement and Social Security planning, and estate planning coordination (beneficiaries, trusts, and POAs, plus the questions to take to your attorney). On the investment side, I help clients build a long-term allocation, improve tax efficiency, and set a rebalancing approach they can actually follow. I also help clients think through small business and real estate decisions where taxes and cash flow matter. We start with a short intro call. If we decide to work together, I will outline the scope, deliverables, and the next step in plain English. Meetings are virtual, with in-person options when it makes sense. I’m based in Arizona and work with clients nationwide.
