About
CLW Financial Planning LLC is a state-registered, fee-only independent advisory firm that serves individuals, high-net-worth individuals, trusts, and small businesses. The firm provides discretionary investment management, comprehensive financial planning, and tax preparation and accounting services delivered through the firm.
The firm’s investment approach is grounded in Modern Portfolio Theory, emphasizing long‑term, diversified allocations implemented principally with passive asset-class mutual funds, ETFs, and conservative fixed income, and documented in a client-specific Investment Policy Statement. CLWFP monitors portfolios on an ongoing basis, may accept discretionary trading authority, and contracts with a third‑party provider for trade processing and certain sub‑advisory services.
The principal is a Certified Public Accountant and the firm integrates tax preparation and tax planning with financial planning services—offering a concierge option that bundles annual tax preparation with ongoing planning—which is an uncommon arrangement for independent advisers. As a solo practitioner managing a small client base and roughly $9.3 million in client assets, the firm’s continuity of operations is dependent on the principal; the brochure discloses there is no plan for business continuation in the event of the principal’s death.

We'll help you think it through – whether you ultimately need an advisor or not.
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.
