About

Joss Brown Wealth Advisors serves individuals, high‑net‑worth households, retirement plans, charitable organizations and other entities, offering financial planning, investment management, and non‑investment consulting on a fee‑only basis. The firm reports approximately $162 million in regulatory assets under management and provides both discretionary and non‑discretionary services to roughly 127 clients.

JBWA develops customized financial plans and recommends asset allocations while implementing strategies through a mix of platforms and custodians, including Betterment for Advisors as well as Schwab and Fidelity, with trading sometimes executed by the firm and sometimes delegated. Implementation tools described in the brochure include separately managed accounts for fixed income (Breckenridge), Dimensional Fund Advisors strategies, use of independent managers, and occasional direct private placements (DSTs, QOFs, real estate LPs and private credit) for suitable accredited clients.

Distinctive features disclosed in the brochure include the firm’s use of client testimonials in its advertising and the fact that, for some Betterment accounts, the firm may receive a portion of the platform’s wrap fee when applicable. The firm also operates as a multi‑advisor team with several CFP professionals across three offices and combines digital platform offerings with third‑party managers and bespoke planning services.

Dan Joss is a seasoned Financial Life Planning professional. Dan Joss is among a small force of Life Planners, less than 200 in the U.S. and only a few dozen in the mid-Atlantic area. Dan founded Joss Financial in 2015, and now, in 2020, has joined with Katherine Brown to create Joss Brown Wealth Advisors. Their shared vision and faith along with combined talents and experiences will further enhance their clients' Life Plans. Dan excels at asking poignant questions to determine what inspires and motivates his clients. These initial planning sessions will be introspective and challenging. Long-time clients give testimony that one must think deeply in terms of their own personal values and ask questions like: “If you had more time or money, what would you do?” “What do you want to accomplish or attain so you will feel that you’ve had a life well-lived?” “What moves, touches, or inspires you?” Dan’s approach to financial planning: "living what matters" was born of his own life experiences.

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.
