About
Rising Tides Financial Planning LLC provides fee‑only financial planning to a very small client base that the brochure identifies as high‑net‑worth individuals, federal government employees, and military service members. The firm offers comprehensive planning across retirement, tax, estate, cash‑flow, insurance, and business planning, and does not act as custodian or accept asset custody for clients.
When making securities recommendations as part of a financial plan, the firm describes using fundamental analysis, modern portfolio theory, and a mix of passive and active strategies to inform asset allocation and fund selection. Engagements are ongoing and collaborative, with client‑directed implementation and at least semi‑annual plan reviews documented by the firm.
Noteworthy for an independent, single‑advisor firm, Rising Tides does not provide portfolio management or discretionary trading and does not charge percentage‑of‑assets fees; instead it bills fixed initial and recurring planning fees and is compensated only by clients. The brochure also highlights a focused client cohort (federal and military personnel) and a very small practice size, which may result in a more narrowly targeted service model compared with 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.
By using our service, you agree to Warmer's Terms of Service and Advisory Agreement and Privacy Policy. Logos provided by Logo.dev
