Seaside Wealth Management in Carlsbad's Bressi Ranch district is an SEC-registered investment advisory firm (RIA #801-111750) managing approximately $459 million in assets under management from its Innovation Way office. The firm's evidence-based portfolio construction and retirement income planning operate under a fiduciary standard, with tax-loss harvesting and Roth conversion strategies that coordinate directly with the tax-preparation work at CPA practices such as Rockwater Associates. CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER™ professionals on staff serve 380 client households across four primary demographics: pre-retirees building sustainable withdrawal plans, women navigating divorce or widowhood, mid-career couples optimizing savings rates, and small-business owners structuring qualified retirement plans. Estate-planning engagements within those client segments often require coordinated life insurance and long-term-care policy analysis through independent agencies such as Hayek Insurance. The highest-value service tier involves multi-generational wealth transfer plans integrating irrevocable trust funding, charitable remainder trust structuring, and dynasty trust provisions for estate values exceeding $13 million.
