About
JLA Investment Management is a small registered investment adviser that provides discretionary portfolio management and separate financial and retirement consulting to individuals, high‑net‑worth clients, trusts, estates, and charitable organizations. The firm serves a limited client base (about 18 households) and manages roughly $16.25 million in discretionary assets, reflecting a focus on individualized advisor-client relationships.
The firm constructs customized portfolio allocations and implements them with individual stocks and bonds, exchange‑traded funds and mutual funds, and may incorporate non‑speculative option strategies while expressly avoiding margin, cryptocurrencies and penny stocks. Portfolios are reviewed and rebalanced based on each client’s objectives and life events; the firm commonly operates with discretionary trading authority but also provides non‑discretionary consulting engagements.
Noteworthy for a firm of its size, JLA documents a formal compliance framework including a written Code of Ethics with annual recertification and ongoing monitoring, and it discloses personal trading practices and potential conflicts. Its small client roster combined with relatively high assets per client and a principal background that includes prior broker‑dealer experience shape an operating model oriented toward more intensive, higher‑balance relationships.

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.
