Schwallier Wealth Management LLC has been helping to improve clients' long-term financial success
and change lives for over 15 years. We offer guidance in the form of financial planning, on-going
investment advice and management, and insight on all things affecting life and finances. Our goal
is that clients are better off for having met us, specifically, and we want to become an
indispensable resource in helping clients attain financial peace.
After tiring of being a captive advisor to a broker-dealer and managing the inherent conflicts
that serving two masters(employer and client) creates, Adam Schwallier formed this SEC-Registered
Investment Advisory(RIA) firm.
Schwallier Wealth Management(SWM) was borne to serve clients directly without the trappings of a
broker-dealer. As a fiduciary, SWM is required to always work in clients best interests and fully
disclose any conflicts of interest.
As a fee-only firm, we work directly for clients and never accept any commission revenue that may
create a conflict of interest.
Using this approach, the firm has grown well from a single advisor office to a multiple advisor
team with a robust staff.

This is the space where a broker-affiliated advisor must disclose the broker-dealer relationship that they do some commission business through. Since we are fee-only, work directly for clients, and forego commissions, no disclaimer is needed.
