Who We Are

Carter Financial Management is a multi-disciplinary financial organization serving the specialized planning and financial service needs of affluent individuals, families, business owners, professionals and executives, combining financial, tax, legal, business and philanthropic matters into a unified strategy.

Carter Financial's sister company, Carter Advisory Services, Inc., provides fee-based planning services for clients requiring comprehensive financial management for estates between $2 million-$100 million. We have a longstanding relationship with Raymond James Financial Services, which serves as our broker/dealer and through which our securities and investment advisory services are offered.

Planning for a Life, Preparing for a Lifetime

“Even when you think you have your life all mapped out, things happen that shape your destiny in ways you might never have imagined.” –Deepak Chopra

Life achievements, success, prosperity and wealth are the personal rewards we all strive for. They are the result of hard work, foresight and planning.

Like many busy, successful individuals, perhaps you see your destination, but not the steps along the way. Shaping your destiny requires a helping hand and adherence to a plan that manages not only the opportunities, but also the risks that you may encounter. Our purpose at Carter Financial Management is to help you not only plan your journey, but, most importantly, reach your goals. For more than three decades, our planners have helped affluent clients and their families plan their financial destinations during both the wealth accumulation and distribution phases of their lives.

Carter Financial Management is comprised of professionals who are experienced and qualified to help you prepare the way. With offices in Dallas, Midland and Chicago, Carter Financial is known for its outstanding team of planners, unique customer service, and vast knowledge of the industry. Together, these qualities contribute to our ability to help you achieve your financial and life goals.

Designing Your Destiny

At Carter Financial Management, we believe that the complexities of managing wealth require trusted advisors whose wisdom enables them to look beyond the finances and formulas. We understand that managing wealth is a collaborative and customized process that is clearly defined by your circumstances and even your personality. It also requires the skill, vigilance and disipline for which our professional planners are known. But, most importantly, it requires a sound philosophy of conduct. Carter Financial offers well-qualified advisors and planners who collectively offer more than 200 years of wisdom and experience.

At Carter Financial Management, our philosophy is founded on three longstanding pillars of principals, and are woven into everything we deliver. These principals explain why we have earned our clients' trust for more than three decades.

COMPETENCY.   As the cornerstone of our practical approach to wealth management and financial planning, competency incorporates wisdom based on experience and requires character with the utmost commitment to honesty and integrity.

CLIENT SERVICE.  Attention to detail, the capability to consider all aspects of a client's situation, and the advice of highly experienced professionals allow our clients to experience the personalized services of a small boutique -- while benefiting from the resources, customized solutions and variety of services that a global firm can provide.

EDUCATION. Well-informed clients make well-informed decisions. This is a longstanding principle and is why we consistently design and deliver educational information, seminars and conferences for our clients.
