About
The Knowles Company, LLC provides personalized, fee-only financial planning and investment management to individuals, trusts, estates, small businesses and retirement plans. Services described in the brochure include cash‑flow and tax planning, retirement and education planning, investment supervisory services, and coordination with outside professionals; an initial exploratory meeting is offered at no charge.
The firm documents client goals in a financial plan and an Investment Policy Statement and generally requires client direction for trade execution, with discretionary authority accepted only when explicitly agreed. Investments are typically allocated across diversified asset classes using no‑load or low‑load mutual funds and exchange‑traded funds, as well as individual equities and fixed‑income instruments when appropriate.
Noteworthy for its peer group, the firm reports managing roughly $48.7 million across 23 client relationships while generally operating without a required account minimum and managing the majority of accounts on a non‑discretionary basis. The adviser is fee‑only (no commissions), provides quarterly reviews and consolidated statements, and disclosed a 2025 transition of custody to Charles Schwab.

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.
