About
DLK Investment Advisors provides personalized investment management and financial planning to high‑net‑worth individuals, trusts, estates, charitable organizations, small institutional investors and employer retirement plans. The firm operates on a fee‑only basis, does not accept commissions, and does not act as custodian—clients retain custody and typically select the brokerage firms that execute their trades.
DLK employs a fundamental relative‑value approach that emphasizes strategic asset allocation between fixed income and public equities to pursue current income and long‑term capital appreciation, with client objectives and risk tolerance documented in its CRM. The firm manages the majority of assets on a discretionary basis, performs periodic (at least quarterly) account reviews, and can deliver written financial plans and ongoing retirement plan consulting as needed.
Distinctive features include an affiliation with DLK Investment Management, which performs certain operational and administrative functions and is compensated through fees that are included in client billing—an arrangement that is relatively uncommon among similar supported firms. DLK also concentrates its practice on high‑net‑worth and institutional relationships rather than lower‑net‑worth individual clients and manages approximately $140.7 million across 32 client relationships, operating with a small advisory structure that emphasizes tailored allocation and documented compliance procedures.

Advisors at this firm
Not sure where to start?
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.
