West Fork Wealth Management LLC

West Fork Wealth Management provides discretionary asset management and offers financial planning to its clients, with planning services made available to asset-management clients at no additional charge. Its stated client types include individuals (including high-net-worth families), as well as non-profits, endowments, trusts, small businesses and estates.

Portfolios are managed under discretionary authority and are tailored to each client’s investment goals, time horizon and risk tolerance, using analysis methods that include fundamental, technical and cyclical approaches alongside modern portfolio theory; accounts are reviewed at least quarterly. The firm executes client trades through custodial platforms (Charles Schwab and Fidelity) and invoices advisory fees in advance from client accounts on a quarterly basis.

Noteworthy features include a concentrated client roster relative to its assets under management—about $10 million in discretionary assets across six client relationships—which reflects a high average account size and a recently established firm leadership with prior experience at large broker-dealers and trust firms and CFP certification. The firm does not vote client proxies (clients receive and vote their own proxies) and discloses receipt of custodial research or “soft dollar” benefits, which it identifies as a potential source of conflicts to be evaluated.
