We believe we are building a unique firm rooted in a friendly, collaborative environment filled with immensely talented people with distinct professional experience.
We take our culture very seriously and are acutely aware that our people are our most valuable resource.
Work Environment

We invest heavily in each of these areas to attract and retain the greatest talent and clients possible.
Over 50 professionals serve our clients in over 40 states from our four office locations in Florida (Headquarters), North Carolina, and Louisiana with additional presence in Sarasota, Florida; Jacksonville, Florida; Omaha, Nebraska; and Nashville, Tennessee.
Our financial professionals are comprised of CFP®, CFA®, CPA, CLU®, CRCP®, AEP®, CRPC®, & JD designations.
Firm Growth
We have an open-door policy, because we know that the best business ideas & results come from listening to our advisors and providing them with the tools they need to best guide their clients.
We have an entrepreneurial mindset that values input and suggestions from the team. Nearly every part of this firm was built as a suggestion from one of the team members and is reflected in our growth.

What Our Advisors Are Saying
“Prior to CWA I was a solo practitioner with a single partner and no employees. Everything fell on us – compliance, trading, administrative paperwork, and everything in between. The resources and organizational structure at CWA allowed me to focus on my job, business development. My book has grown exponentially from this support and has allowed me to become more efficient and effective in utilizing my skill set.“
Jeff Galati, CFP®, CLU®
Managing Director | Private Wealth Management
“The entire fabric of this enterprise is about having the expertise and flexibility to serve our clients in a truly unique way. I have never been a part of an enterprise that offers so many solutions to the advisor and so much support. This is a firm that is growing in every sense of the word. This has been the best choice of my career.”
John Walker, AEP®, CFP®
Executive Vice President | Private Wealth Management
