*To compile our list of the top financial planners, we asked every CFP in the Dallas-Fort Worth chapter of the Financial Planners Association to cast an online ballot. Outside-firm votes counted more than inside-firm votes. Self-nominations were tossed out. A panel of esteemed local financial planners reviewed the final list. 

**The overall evaluation score of a wealth manager reflects an average of all respondents and may not be representative of any one client's evaluation.  The award is not indicative of the wealth manager's future performance.  For more information on the FIVE STAR Award and the research/selection methodology, click here.
