About

Turtle Bay Group primarily serves high‑net‑worth individuals, trusts, estates, and charitable organizations. The firm acts mainly as a solicitor/referrer to a third‑party registered investment adviser for portfolio management, and it also provides consulting and non‑advisory family office services such as cash‑flow and retirement planning and advice on private placements.

Turtle Bay does not manage client investment accounts or hold client assets; its investment recommendations for managed accounts are limited to the products and programs offered by the third‑party manager it recommends. For consulting clients the firm delivers tailored asset‑allocation and wealth‑advisory opinions, conducts periodic reviews of recommended managers, and does not exercise investment discretion over client accounts.

Distinctive features include the firm’s integration with licensed legal and accounting services: principals provide non‑advisory legal and CPA services to clients for separate compensation and may devote substantial time to family office, accounting, and legal work. The firm also departs from common practice among peers by not charging percentage‑of‑assets advisory fees itself and by receiving disclosed referral compensation from the third‑party manager, an arrangement the firm monitors to address conflicts of interest.

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.
