Fallenbaum CPA & Advisors, LLC

The firm provides fee-based investment advisory and financial planning services to individuals, trusts, estates, charitable organizations and business entities, and also offers educational seminars. Services are delivered on a tailored basis and the firm typically manages client portfolios on a discretionary basis in accordance with each client's stated objectives.

Investment management is driven by a tactical allocation strategy intended to reduce risk and seek improved performance, and the firm uses fundamental, technical and cyclical analysis in portfolio decisions. The adviser employs a broad range of instruments — including exchange-listed and over-the-counter securities, corporate and municipal debt, mutual funds and ETFs, options and short sales, variable insurance and interests in real estate or energy partnerships — and may recommend reallocations, cash positions or specific securities to adjust sector weightings or tax outcomes.

A distinctive feature is that the firm is run by a licensed CPA and combines investment advisory services with accounting and tax work, with separate fees disclosed when clients use both services; this accounting-advisor combination is uncommon among independent advisory firms. The practice is a small, solo-advisor operation that emphasizes discretionary portfolio management, does not custody client assets except for authorized fee deductions, and does not vote client proxies.
