• Ask whether the advisor operates as a fiduciary, meaning they're legally required to act in your best interest.
• Request a clear explanation of how they are compensated—whether by fees, commissions, or a combination—and ensure you understand any potential conflicts of interest.
• Inquire about their investment philosophy and ask for examples of how they've helped clients with goals similar to yours.
• Check their disciplinary history through FINRA BrokerCheck or the SEC's Investment Adviser Public Disclosure database.
• Ask for references from current clients who have worked with them for at least a few years.
• Discuss what ongoing communication and reviews you can expect after the initial planning phase.

Quality signals to look for

When evaluating a financial advisor, confirm that credentials are legitimate and verifiable through official databases rather than relying solely on website claims. Look for advisors who provide written investment policy statements and are transparent about fees upfront. Be cautious of advisors who pressure you to make quick decisions, guarantee specific returns, or discourage you from seeking a second opinion. A reputable advisor should be willing to explain their methodology clearly and welcome your questions about their background and experience.
