The Best Financial Planners in Dallas-Fort Worth for 2022

The Best Financial Planners in Dallas-Fort Worth for 2022

HOW WE COMPILED THIS LIST: D Magazine asked every Certified Financial Planner in the Dallas-Fort Worth chapter of the Financial Planning Association to cast an online ballot. They were asked to name peers, both inside and outside their firms, whom they considered to be the most skilled and experienced financial planners in the industry. Outside-firm votes counted more than inside-firm votes. Self-nominations were tossed out. A panel of esteemed local financial planners reviewed the list. Only CFPs made the list. A total of 783 votes were cast, and 278 individuals were nominated. Of these, 91 were selected.
