Fulcrum Wealth Advisors was founded on integrity and trust, in order to meet the needs of sophisticated individuals, families, business owners and organizations who seek more from their financial advisor than what conventional financial services firms offer.
We began this business in 2013 as a commitment to protect our clients from unnecessary fees, costs, and conflicts of interest, which are the mainstay of traditional "Big-Box" financial institutions.
Fulcrum Wealth Advisors is owned by the partners and has no outside shareholders or corporate parent. Thus, we strive to be free from the conflicts of interest that arise when a traditional firm needs to service the interests of its shareholders ahead of the interests of its clients.
Our combined 121+ years of experience within such enterprises compelled us to offer a different kind of experience, one that puts people before profits and planning before product.

Financial Advice & Consulting |
Fulcrum Wealth Advisors has a diverse client base that includes wealthy individuals, families, private business owners, trusts, and not-for-profit organizations. We are independent, free from outside influences, and owned by local partners. This means no corporate parent or pre-negotiated contracts will ever influence our client's best interests. We adhere to our role as stewards of wealth, rather than broker/salesmen. |
Financial Planning for Individuals |
Not having outside shareholders means a client's assets do not serve the interests of far-away shareholders. Thus, we strive to be free from potential conflicts of interest that arises; such as when a corporation serves the interests of its shareholders ahead of the interests of its clients. We do not have any "soft-dollar" relationships with money managers that might influence our advice. As a result, we strongly align our interests with those of our clients. |
Financial Planning for Businesses |
Business owners have unique planning concerns: # Succession planning # Business Valuation # Personal wealth and tax planning We at FWA, have a long history of understanding the unique needs of those who own private companies. |
