About
Richards Financial Planning serves individuals and families who are approaching or in retirement, providing retirement income planning, comprehensive financial planning, and investment management. The firm also works with business owners and plan sponsors on employer‑sponsored retirement plans, offering plan selection, design, benchmarking, fiduciary support, and employee education.
The firm’s practice emphasizes retirement income planning and client education: it delivers written, stress‑tested retirement income plans, uses a structured planning process, and offers project‑based or hourly planning engagements alongside optional investment management. Many clients engage on a planning‑only or non‑discretionary basis, though the firm will accept discretionary authority for ongoing portfolio management when requested and applies disciplined asset allocation and rebalancing when managing assets.
Noteworthy aspects include the adviser’s long history as a licensed insurance agent and the firm’s transparent disclosure that insurance recommendations can generate initial and ongoing commissions, trail and renewal payments, and sales bonuses, with procedures intended to separate insurance sales from fiduciary advisory services. The combination of pension/retirement‑plan consulting, in‑person employee education and enrollment meetings, and a focus on fee‑based planning (with insurance sales disclosed separately) sets the firm apart from many peers.

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.
