About
Lelah Financial provides financial planning and portfolio management to individuals, high-net-worth clients, and small businesses, with services that include retirement-plan advice, modular planning (e.g., divorce and education planning), and business consultation. The firm also advises on rollovers and employer-sponsored retirement plans and prepares written investment guidelines tailored to client objectives.
The firm follows a Core + Satellite investment approach that blends passive, low-cost indexed core holdings with selectively chosen active “satellite” positions, and relies on fundamental analysis to inform allocations. It acts as a fiduciary, manages accounts on discretionary and nondiscretionary bases, and emphasizes global diversification and tax-aware implementation where practical.
Compared with many independent advisers, Lelah Financial routinely works with corporate/business clients and provides retirement-plan guidance, offers complimentary educational seminars and workshops, and its principal is licensed to sell insurance products (including annuities and life/health coverage) — a dual role the firm discloses to clients. The adviser manages a relatively concentrated book of business (roughly $36 million in assets across a small number of client relationships), which the brochure presents as the basis for individualized, ongoing planning and review.

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.
