Item 4 – Advisory Services
A. Firm Information
Lakeridge Wealth Management LLC (“Lakeridge” or the “Advisor”) is a registered investment advisor with the U.S.
Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). The Advisor was organized as a Limited Liability Company (“LLC”)
under the laws of the State of Ohio in July 2021. Lakeridge is owned by Brian W. Distler, CFP® (Principal) and Travis
H. Flandermeyer MBA, AIF® (Principal). The Advisor may conduct business under two additional practice names
(“doing business as” or “dba” names), including Doctor’s Financial Resource and MBA Financial Services. This
Disclosure Brochure provides information regarding the qualifications, business practices, and the advisory services
provided by Lakeridge.
B. Advisory Services Offered
Lakeridge offers investment management, financial planning and/or other advisory services to individuals, high net
worth individuals, trusts, estates, businesses, and charitable organizations (each referred to as a “Client”).
The Advisor serves as a fiduciary to Clients, as defined under the applicable laws and regulations. As a fiduciary, the
Advisor upholds a duty of loyalty, fairness and good faith towards each Client and seeks to mitigate potential conflicts
of interest. Lakeridge’s fiduciary commitment is further described in the Advisor’s Code of Ethics. For more information
regarding the Code of Ethics, please see Item 11 – Code of Ethics, Participation or Interest in Client Transactions and
Personal Trading.
Investment Management Services
Lakeridge provides customized investment advisory solutions for its clients. This is achieved through continuous
personal Client contact and interaction while providing discretionary investment management and related advisory
services. Lakeridge works closely with each Client to identify their investment goals and objectives as well as risk
tolerance and financial situation in order to create a portfolio strategy. Lakeridge will then construct an investment
portfolio, consisting primarily of exchange-traded funds (“ETFs”) and mutual funds. The Advisor may also utilize,
individual stocks, individual bonds, limited partnerships, and/or other types in investments, as appropriate, to meet the
needs of the Client. The Advisor may retain other types of investments from the Client’s legacy portfolio due to fit with
the overall portfolio strategy, tax-related reasons, or other reasons as identified between the Advisor and the Client.
Lakeridge’s investment strategies are primarily long-term focused, but the Advisor may buy, sell or re-allocate
positions that have been held for less than one year to meet the objectives of the Client or due to market conditions.
Lakeridge will construct, implement and monitor the portfolio to ensure it meets the goals, objectives, circumstances,
and risk tolerance agreed to by the Client. Each Client will have the opportunity to place reasonable restrictions on the
types of investments to be held in their respective portfolio, subject to acceptance by the Advisor.
Lakeridge evaluates and selects investments for inclusion in Client portfolios only after applying its internal due
diligence process. Lakeridge may recommend, on occasion, redistributing investment allocations to diversify the
portfolio. Lakeridge may recommend specific positions to increase sector or asset class weightings. The Advisor may
recommend employing cash positions as a possible hedge against market movement. Lakeridge may recommend
selling positions for reasons that include, but are not limited to, harvesting capital gains or losses, business or sector
risk exposure to a specific security or class of securities, overvaluation or overweighting of the position[s] in the
portfolio, change in risk tolerance of the Client, generating cash to meet Client needs, or any risk deemed
unacceptable for the Client’s risk tolerance.
At no time will Lakeridge accept or maintain custody of a client’s funds or securities, except for the limited authority as
outlined in Item 15 – Custody. All Client assets will be managed within the designated account[s] at the Custodian,
pursuant to the terms of the advisory agreement. Please see Item 12 – Brokerage Practices.
Financial Planning Services
Lakeridge will typically provide a variety of financial planning and consulting services to Clients, pursuant to a written
financial planning agreement. Services are offered in several areas of a client’s financial situation, depending on their
goals and objectives. Generally, such financial planning services involve preparing a formal financial plan or rendering
a specific financial consultation based on the Client’s financial goals and objectives. This planning or consulting may
Page 4
Lakeridge Wealth Management LLC
Phone: (440) 510-1901 | https://lakeridgewm.com
encompass one or more areas of need, including but not limited to, investment planning, retirement planning, personal
savings, education savings, insurance needs, and/or other areas of a client’s financial situation.
A financial plan developed for, or financial consultation rendered to the Client will usually include general
recommendations for a course of activity or specific actions to be taken by the Client. For example, recommendations
may be made that the Client start or revise their investment programs, commence or alter retirement savings, establish
education savings and/or charitable giving programs.
Lakeridge may also refer Clients to an accountant, attorney or other specialists, as appropriate for their unique
situation. For certain financial planning engagements, the Advisor will provide a written summary of the Client’s
financial situation, observations, and recommendations. For consulting or ad-hoc engagements, the Advisor may not
provide a written summary.
Retirement Plan Advisory Services
Lakeridge provides 3(21) retirement plan advisory services on behalf of the retirement plans (each a “Plan”) and the
company (the “Plan Sponsor”). The Advisor’s retirement plan advisory services are designed to assist the Plan
Sponsor in meeting its fiduciary obligations to the Plan and its Plan Participants. Each engagement is customized to
the needs of the Plan and Plan Sponsor. Services generally include:
Investment Policy Statement (“IPS”) Design and Monitoring
● Vendor Analysis
● Plan Participant Enrollment and Education Support
●
● Ongoing Investment Recommendation and Assistance
● Selection of Qualified Default Investment Alternative (“QDIA”)
● Recommendation of unaffiliated 3(38) Fiduciary, if applicable.
● ERISA 404I Assistance
These services are provided by Lakeridge serving in the capacity as a fiduciary under the Employee Retirement
Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (“ERISA”). In accordance with ERISA Section 408(b)(2), the Plan Sponsor
is provided with a written description of Lakeridge’s fiduciary status, the specific services to be rendered and all direct
and indirect compensation the Advisor reasonably expects under the engagement.
Use of Independent Managers
Lakeridge will recommend that Clients utilize one or more unaffiliated investment managers or investment platforms
(collectively “Independent Managers”) for all or a portion of a Client’s investment portfolio, based on the Client’s needs
and objectives. In certain instances, the Client may be required to authorize and enter into an investment management
agreement with the Independent Manager[s] that defines the terms in which the Independent Manager[s] will provide
its services. The Advisor will perform initial and ongoing oversight and due diligence over each Independent Manager
to ensure the strategy remains aligned with Clients investment objectives and overall best interests. The Advisor will
also assist the Client in the development of the initial policy recommendations and managing the ongoing Client
relationship. The Client will be provided with the Independent Manager's Form ADV Part 2A - Disclosure Brochure (or
a brochure that makes the appropriate disclosures).
C. Client Account Management
Prior to engaging Lakeridge to provide investment advisory services, each Client is required to enter into one or more
agreements with the Advisor that define the terms, conditions, authority and responsibilities of the Advisor and the
Client. These services may include:
● Establishing an Investment Strategy – Lakeridge, in connection with the Client, will develop a strategy that
seeks to achieve the Client’s goals and objectives.
● Asset Allocation – Lakeridge will develop a strategic asset allocation that is targeted to meet the investment
objectives, time horizon, financial situation and tolerance for risk for each Client.
● Portfolio Construction – Lakeridge will develop a portfolio for the Client that is intended to meet the stated
goals and objectives of the Client.

●
Investment Management and Supervision – Lakeridge will provide investment management and ongoing
oversight of the Client’s investment portfolio.
D. Wrap Fee Programs
Lakeridge does not manage a wrap fee program.
E. Assets Under Management
As of December 31, 2025, Lakeridge manages $805,361,469 in Client assets, $706,020,108 of which are managed on
a discretionary basis and $99,341,361 of which are managed on a non-discretionary basis. Clients may request more
current information at any time by contacting the Advisor.
Item 5 – Fees and Compensation
The following paragraphs detail the fee structure and compensation methodology for services provided by the Advisor.
Each Client engaging the Advisor for services described herein shall be required to enter into one or more written
agreement(s) with the Advisor.
A. Fees for Advisory Services
Investment Management Services
Investment advisory fees are paid quarterly, in advance of each calendar quarter, pursuant to the terms of the
investment advisory agreement. Investment advisory fees are based on the market value of assets under management
at the end of the prior calendar quarter. Investment advisory fees are based on the following blended fee schedule:
Assets Under Management
Up to $500,000
$500,001 to $1,000,000
$1,000,001 to $2,500,000
$2,500,001 to $5,000,000
$5,000,000 and above
Annual Rate (%)
1.50%
1.35%
1.25%
1.00%
Negotiable
The investment advisory fee in the first quarter of service is prorated from the inception date of the account[s] to the
end of the first quarter. Fees may be negotiable at the sole discretion of the Advisor. Certain Clients may be offered a
fixed rate fee schedule. The Client’s fees will take into consideration the aggregate assets under management with the
Advisor. All securities held in accounts managed by Lakeridge will be independently valued by the Custodian.
Lakeridge will not have the authority or responsibility to value portfolio securities to ensure accurate billing.
The Advisor’s fee is exclusive of, and in addition to any applicable securities transaction and custody fees, and other
related costs and expenses described in Item 5.C below, which may be incurred by the Client. However, the Advisor
shall not receive any portion of these commissions, fees, and costs.
Financial Planning Services
Lakeridge Wealth offers financial planning services either on either a project basis on an ongoing planning
engagement. Project-based engagements are billed at an hourly rate of up to $300 per hour or a fixed engagement
fee. Fixed fee engagements are negotiated based on the expected number of hours to complete the engagement at
the Advisor’s hourly rate. Ongoing financial planning engagements are provided as a fixed annual fee. This fee may be
payable monthly, quarterly, biannually, or annually in arrears dependent upon the terms of the individual client
agreement. Fees range from $1,000 to $14,000 or more based on the services/scope, complexity and expected
amount of time to be spent on the engagement. Fees may be negotiable based on the nature and complexity of the
services to be provided and the overall relationship with the Advisor. An estimate for total hours and/or total costs will
be provided to the Client prior to engaging for these services.

Phone: (440) 510-1901 | https://lakeridgewm.com
Retirement Plan Advisory Services
Fees for retirement plan advisory services are charged an asset-based fee of up to 1.00% annually and are billed in
either in advance or arrears, pursuant to the terms of the retirement plan advisory agreement. Retirement plan fees are
based on the market value of assets under management at the end of the respective calendar quarter. The Plan may
be offered a fixed annual fee instead of an asset-based fee. Fees may be negotiable depending on the size and
complexity of the Plan.
Use of Independent Managers
As noted in Item 4, the Advisor will implement all or a portion of a Client’s investment portfolio utilizing one or more
Independent Managers. To eliminate any conflict of interest, the Advisor does not earn any compensation from an
Independent Manager. The Advisor will only earn its investment advisory fee as described above. Independent Managers
typically do not offer any fee discounts but may have a breakpoint schedule which will reduce the fee with an increased
level of assets placed under management with an Independent Manager. The terms of such fee arrangements are
included in the Independent Manager’s disclosure brochure and applicable contract[s] with the Independent Manager.
The total blended fee, including the Advisor’s fee and the Independent Manager’s fee, will not exceed 1.5% annually.
American Funds
The wealth management fee is billed quarterly, in arrears, for assets held at American Funds. The fee is based upon
the average daily net value. Accounts with American Funds are subject to an asset-based fee of 1.00% annually
which may be negotiable at the sole discretion of the Advisor.
B. Fee Billing
Investment Management Services
Investment advisory fees are calculated by the Advisor or its delegate and deducted from the Client’s account[s] at the
Custodian. The Advisor shall send an invoice to the Custodian indicating the amount of the fees to be deducted from
the Client’s account[s] at the beginning on the respective quarter. The amount due is calculated by applying the
quarterly rate (annual rate/days in the year, multiplied by days in the quarter) to the total assets under management
with Lakeridge at the end of the prior quarter. Clients will be provided with a statement, at least quarterly, from the
Custodian reflecting deduction of the investment advisory fee. It is the responsibility of the Client to verify the accuracy
of these fees as listed on the Custodian’s brokerage statement as the Custodian does not assume this responsibility.
Clients provide written authorization permitting advisory fees to be deducted by Lakeridge Wealth to be paid directly
from their account[s] held by the Custodian as part of the investment advisory agreement and separate account forms
provided by the Custodian.
Financial Planning Services
Project-based financial planning fees may be invoiced up to fifty percent (50%) of the expected total fee upon
execution of the financial planning agreement. The balance shall be invoiced upon completion of the agreed upon
deliverable[s]. Ongoing financial planning engagements are billed at the end of each month, quarter, biannually, or
annually dependent on the client agreement. Fees may be invoiced directly to the Client or deducted from the Client’s
account[s], pursuant to the terms of the financial planning agreement.
Retirement Plan Advisory Services
Retirement plan advisory fees for asset-based engagements are calculated quarterly in advance or arrears, based on
the market value of assets under management at the end of the respective calendar quarter. Retirement plan advisory
fees may be directly invoiced to the Plan Sponsor or deducted from the assets of the Plan, depending on the terms of
the retirement plan advisory agreement.
Use of Independent Managers
For Client accounts implemented through an Independent Manager, the Client’s overall fees will include Lakeridge’s
investment advisory fee (as noted above) plus investment management fees and/or platform fees charged by the
Independent Manager. The Custodian will assume the responsibility for calculating the Client’s fees and deducting all
fees from the Client’s account[s].

Lakeridge Wealth Management LLC
Phone: (440) 510-1901 | https://lakeridgewm.com
C. Other Fees and Expenses
Clients may incur certain fees or charges imposed by third parties, other than Lakeridge, in connection with
investments made on behalf of the Client’s account[s]. The Client is responsible for all custody and securities
execution fees charged by the Custodian, as applicable. The Advisor's recommended Custodian does not charge
securities transaction fees for ETF and equity trades in a Client's account, provided that the account meets the terms
and conditions of the Custodian’s brokerage requirements. However, the Custodian typically charges for mutual funds
and other types of investments. The fees charged by Lakeridge are separate and distinct from these custody and
execution fees.
In addition, all fees paid to Lakeridge for investment advisory services are separate and distinct from the expenses
charged by mutual funds and ETFs to their shareholders, if applicable. These fees and expenses are described in
each fund’s prospectus. These fees and expenses will generally be used to pay management fees for the funds, other
fund expenses, account administration (e.g., custody, brokerage and account reporting), and a possible distribution
fee. A Client may be able to invest in these products directly, without the services of Lakeridge, but would not receive
the services provided by Lakeridge which are designed, among other things, to assist the Client in determining which
products or services are most appropriate for each Client’s financial situation and objectives. Accordingly, the Client
should review both the fees charged by the fund[s] and the fees charged by Lakeridge to fully understand the total fees
to be paid. Please refer to Item 12 – Brokerage Practices for additional information.
D. Advance Payment of Fees and Termination
Lakeridge may be compensated for its investment management services in advance of the quarter in which services
are rendered. Either party may terminate the investment advisory agreement, at any time, by providing advance written
notice to the other party. The Client may also terminate the investment advisory agreement within five (5) business
days of signing the Advisor’s agreement at no cost to the Client. After the five-day period, the Client will incur charges
for bona fide advisory services rendered to the point of termination and such fees will be due and payable by the
Client. Upon termination, the Advisor will refund any unearned, prepaid investment advisory fees from the effective
date of termination to the end of the quarter. The Client’s investment advisory agreement with the Advisor is non-
transferable without the Client’s prior consent.
Financial Planning Services
Lakeridge Wealth is partially compensated for its project-based financial planning services at the start of the
engagement. Ongoing financial planning engagements are billed at the end of each quarter. Either party may
terminate the financial planning agreement, at any time, by providing advance written notice to the other party. The
Client may also terminate the financial planning agreement within five (5) business days of signing the Advisor’s
agreement at no cost to the Client. After the five-day period, the Client will incur charges for bona fide advisory
services rendered to the point of termination and such fees will be due and payable by the Client. Upon termination,
the Client shall be billed for actual hours logged on the planning project times the contractual hourly rate or in the case
of a fixed fee engagement, the percentage of the engagement scope completed by the Advisor. For ongoing planning
engagements, the Client shall be responsible for pro-rata planning fees up to and including the effective date of
termination. Upon termination, the Advisor will promptly refund any unearned, prepaid planning fees. The Client’s
financial planning agreement with the Advisor is non-transferable without the Client’s prior consent.
Retirement Plan Advisory Services
Lakeridge may be compensated for its retirement plan advisory services at the beginning of the quarter. Either party
may request to terminate a retirement plan advisory agreement, at any time, by providing advance written notice to the
other party. Upon termination Plan shall be responsible for retirement plan advisory fees up to and including the
effective date of termination. Upon termination, Lakeridge will promptly refund any unearned prepaid fees. The Plan’s
retirement plan advisory agreement with the Advisor is non-transferable without the Plan/Plan Sponsor’s prior consent.
Use of Independent Managers
In the event the Advisor has determined that an Independent Manager is no longer in the Client’s best interest or a Client
should wish to terminate their relationship with the Independent Manager, the terms for termination will be set forth in
the respective agreements between the Client and those third parties. Lakeridge will assist the Client with the termination
and transition as appropriate.

E. Compensation for Sales of Securities
Lakeridge does not buy or sell securities to earn commissions and does not receive any compensation for securities
transactions in any Client account, other than the investment advisory fees noted above.
Advisory Persons are also Registered Representatives of Private Client Services LLC and Cetera Advisor Networks
LLC (“PCS or Cetera”). PCS is a registered broker-dealer (CRD#173969), member FINRA, SIPC. In an Advisory
Person’s separate capacity as a Registered Representative of PCS, the Advisory Person will implement securities
transactions under PCS and not through Lakeridge Wealth. Cetera is a registered broker-dealer (CRD#13572),
member FINRA, SIPC. In an Advisory Person’s separate capacity as a Registered Representative of Cetera, the
Advisory Person will implement securities transactions under Cetera and not through Lakeridge Wealth. In such
instances, the Advisory Person will receive commission-based compensation in connection with the purchase and sale
of securities, including 12b-1 fees for the sale of investment company products. Compensation earned by the Advisory
Person in one’s capacity as a Registered Representative is separate and in addition to the Advisor’s fees. This
practice presents a conflict of interest because the Advisory Person who is a Registered Representative has an
incentive to effect securities transactions for the purpose of generating commissions rather than solely based on the
Client. Clients are not obligated to implement any recommendation provided by the Advisor nor Advisory Persons.
Neither the Advisor nor Advisory Persons will earn ongoing investment advisory fees in connection with any products
or services implemented in the Advisory Person’s separate capacity as a Registered Representative. Please see Item
10 below.
Certain Advisory Persons are also licensed as independent insurance professionals. As an independent insurance
professional, an Advisory Person will earn commission-based compensation for selling insurance products, including
insurance products they sell to Clients. Insurance commissions earned by Advisory Persons are separate and in
addition to the Advisor’s fees. This practice presents a conflict of interest as the Advisory Person has an incentive to
recommend insurance products to the Client for the purpose of generating commissions rather than solely based on
the Client’s needs. Clients are under no obligation, contractually or otherwise, to purchase insurance products through
any Advisory Person affiliated with the Advisor. Please see Item 10 below.
Item 6 – Performance-Based Fees and Side-By-Side Management
Lakeridge does not charge performance-based fees for its investment advisory services. The fees charged by
Lakeridge are as described in Item 5 above and are not based upon the capital appreciation of the funds or securities
held by any Client.
Lakeridge does not manage any proprietary investment funds or limited partnerships (for example, a mutual fund or a
hedge fund) and has no financial incentive to recommend any particular investment options to its clients.
Item 7 – Types of Clients
Lakeridge offers investment advisory services to individuals, high net worth individuals, trusts, estates, businesses,
and charitable organizations. Lakeridge generally does not impose a minimum relationship size.
Item 8 – Methods of Analysis, Investment Strategies and Risk of Loss
A. Methods of Analysis
Lakeridge primarily employs fundamental analysis methods in developing investment strategies for its clients.
Research and analysis from Lakeridge are derived from numerous sources, including financial media companies, third-
party research materials, Internet sources, and review of company activities, including annual reports, prospectuses,
press releases and research prepared by others.
Fundamental analysis utilizes economic and business indicators as investment selection criteria. This criteria consists
generally of ratios and trends that may indicate the overall strength and financial viability of the entity being analyzed.
Assets are deemed suitable if they meet certain criteria to indicate that they are a strong investment with a value
discounted by the market. While this type of analysis helps the Advisor in evaluating a potential investment, it does not
Page 9
Lakeridge Wealth Management LLC
Phone: (440) 510-1901 | https://lakeridgewm.com
guarantee that the investment will increase in value. Assets meeting the investment criteria utilized in the fundamental
analysis may lose value and may have negative investment performance. The Advisor monitors these economic
indicators to determine if adjustments to strategic allocations are appropriate. More details on the Advisor’s review
process are included below in Item 13 – Review of Accounts.
As noted above, Lakeridge generally employs a long-term investment strategy for its clients, as consistent with their
financial goals. Lakeridge will typically hold all or a portion of a security for more than a year, but may hold for shorter
periods for the purpose of rebalancing a portfolio or meeting the cash needs of Clients. At times, Lakeridge may also
buy and sell positions that are more short-term in nature, depending on the goals of the Client and/or the fundamentals
of the security, sector or asset class.
B. Risk of Loss
Investing in securities involves certain investment risks. Securities may fluctuate in value or lose value. Clients should
be prepared to bear the potential risk of loss. Lakeridge will assist Clients in determining an appropriate strategy based
on their tolerance for risk and other factors noted above. However, there is no guarantee that a client will meet their
investment goals. Please see Item 8.B. for risks associated with the Advisor’s investment strategies as well as general
risks of investing.
While the methods of analysis help the Advisor in evaluating a potential investment, it does not guarantee that the
investment will increase in value. Assets meeting the investment criteria utilized in these methods of analysis may lose
value and may have negative investment performance. The Advisor monitors these economic indicators to determine if
adjustments to strategic allocations are appropriate. More details on the Advisor’s review process are included below
in Item 13 – Review of Accounts.
Each Client engagement will entail a review of the Clients’ investment goals, financial situation, time horizon, tolerance
for risk and other factors to develop an appropriate strategy for managing a Clients’ account. Client participation in this
process, including full and accurate disclosure of requested information, is essential for the analysis of a Clients’
account[s]. The Advisor shall rely on the financial and other information provided by the Client or their designees
without the duty or obligation to validate the accuracy and completeness of the provided information. It is the
responsibility of the Client to inform the Advisor of any changes in financial condition, goals or other factors that may
affect this analysis.
The risks associated with a particular strategy are provided to each Client in advance of investing Client accounts. The
Advisor will work with each Client to determine their tolerance for risk as part of the portfolio construction process.
Following is some of the risks associated with the Advisor’s investment strategies:
Market Risks
The value of a client’s holdings may fluctuate in response to events specific to companies or markets, as well as
economic, political, or social events in the U.S. and abroad. This risk is linked to the performance of the overall
financial markets.
ETF Risks
The performance of ETFs is subject to market risk, including the possible loss of principal. The price of the ETFs will
fluctuate with the price of the underlying securities that make up the funds. In addition, ETFs have a trading risk based
on the loss of cost efficiency if the ETFs are traded actively and a liquidity risk if the ETFs has a large bid-ask spread
and low trading volume. The price of an ETF fluctuates based upon the market movements and may dissociate from
the index being tracked by the ETF or the price of the underlying investments. An ETF purchased or sold at one point
in the day may have a different price than the same ETF purchased or sold a short time later.
Bond ETFs
Bond ETFs are subject to specific risks, including the following: (1) interest rate risks, i.e., the risk that bond prices will
fall if interest rates rise, and vice versa, the risk depends on two things, the bond’s time to maturity, and the coupon
rate of the bond. (2) reinvestment risk, i.e. the risk that any profit gained must be reinvested at a lower rate than was
previously being earned, (3) inflation risk, i.e. the risk that the cost of living and inflation increase at a rate that exceeds
the income investment thereby decreasing the investor’s rate of return, (4) credit default risk, i.e. the risk associated
Page 10

Phone: (440) 510-1901 | https://lakeridgewm.com
with purchasing a debt instrument which includes the possibility of the company defaulting on its repayment obligation,
(5) rating downgrades, i.e. the risk associated with a rating agency’s downgrade of the company’s rating which impacts
the investor’s confidence in the company’s ability to repay its debt and (6) Liquidity Risks, i.e. the risk that a bond may
not be sold as quickly as there is no readily available market for the bond.
Mutual Fund Risks
The performance of mutual funds is subject to market risk, including the possible loss of principal. The price of the
mutual funds will fluctuate with the value of the underlying securities that make up the funds. The price of a mutual
fund is typically set daily therefore a mutual fund purchased at one point in the day will typically have the same price as
a mutual fund purchased later that same day.
Alternative Investments (Limited Partnerships)
The performance of alternative investments (limited partnerships) can be volatile and may have limited liquidity. An
investor could lose all or a portion of their investment. Such investments often have concentrated positions and
investments that may carry higher risks. Client should only have a portion of their assets in these investments.
Private Collective Investment Vehicle Risks
The Advisor could recommend that certain clients invest in privately placed collective investment vehicles (e.g., hedge
funds, private equity funds, etc.). The managers of these vehicles have broad discretion in selecting the investments.
There are few limitations on the types of securities or other financial instruments that may be traded and no
requirement to diversify. Hedge funds may trade on margin or otherwise leverage positions, thereby potentially
increasing the risk to the vehicle. In addition, because the vehicles are not registered as investment companies, they
are much less regulated than investment companies. There are numerous other risks in investing in these securities.
Clients should consult each fund’s private placement memorandum and/or other documents explaining such risks prior
to investing.
Past performance is not a guarantee of future returns. Investing in securities and other investments involve a
risk of loss that each Client should understand and be willing to bear. Clients are reminded to discuss these
risks with the Advisor.
Item 9 – Disciplinary Information
There are no legal, regulatory or disciplinary events involving Lakeridge or its owner. Lakeridge values the trust
Clients place in the Advisor. The Advisor encourages Clients to perform the requisite due diligence on any advisor or
service provider that the Client engages. The backgrounds of the Advisor or Advisory Persons are available on the
Investment Adviser Public Disclosure website at www.adviserinfo.sec.gov by searching with the Advisor’s firm name or
CRD# 314071.
Item 10 – Other Financial Industry Activities and Affiliations
Independent Managers
As noted in Item 4, the Advisor may implement all or a portion of a client’s investment portfolio with one or more
Independent Managers. The Advisor does not receive any compensation nor does this present a material conflict of
interest. The Advisor will only earn its investment advisory fee as described in Item 5.A.
Other Registered Investment Advisor Affiliation
Certain Advisory Persons are also an Investment Advisor Representatives (“IARs”) of Cetera Advisor Networks LLC
(CRD# 13572). As a financial advisor with Cetera, the Advisory Person will receive investment advisory fees for
investment management services offered. The Advisory Person will provide each Client with Cetera’s Form ADV 2A
or equivalent disclosure brochure, in advance of providing investment management services. At no time will the
Advisory Person or the Advisor earn both ongoing investment advisory fees under the Advisor and ongoing
investment advisory fees through Cetera on the same investment assets.
Page 11
Lakeridge Wealth Management LLC
Phone: (440) 510-1901 | https://lakeridgewm.com
Insurance Agency Affiliations
As noted in Item 5, certain Advisory Persons are also licensed insurance professionals. Implementations of insurance
recommendations are separate and apart from one’s role with Lakeridge. As an insurance professional, an Advisory
Person will receive customary commissions and other related revenues from the various insurance companies whose
products are sold. Advisory Persons are not required to offer the products of any particular insurance company.
Commissions generated by insurance sales do not offset regular advisory fees. This may cause a conflict of interest in
recommending certain products of the insurance companies. Clients are under no obligation to implement any
recommendations made by an Advisory Person or the Advisor.
Item 11 – Code of Ethics, Participation or Interest in Client Transactions and Personal Trading
A. Code of Ethics
Lakeridge has implemented a Code of Ethics (the “Code”) that defines the Advisor’s fiduciary commitment to each
Client. This Code applies to all persons associated with Lakeridge (“Supervised Persons”). The Code was developed
to provide general ethical guidelines and specific instructions regarding the Advisor’s duties to each Client. Lakeridge
and its Supervised Persons owe a duty of loyalty, fairness and good faith towards each Client. It is the obligation of
Lakeridge’s Supervised Persons to adhere not only to the specific provisions of the Code, but also to the general
principles that guide the Code. The Code covers a range of topics that address employee ethics and conflicts of
interest. To request a copy of the Code, please contact the Advisor at (440) 510-1901.
B. Personal Trading with Material Interest
Lakeridge allows Supervised Persons to purchase or sell the same securities that may be recommended to and
purchased on behalf of Clients. Lakeridge does not act as principal in any transactions. In addition, the Advisor does
not act as the general partner of a fund, or advise an investment company. Lakeridge does not have a material interest
in any securities traded in Client accounts.
C. Personal Trading in Same Securities as Clients
Lakeridge allows Supervised Persons to purchase or sell the same securities that may be recommended to and
purchased on behalf of Clients. Owning the same securities that are recommended (purchase or sell) to Clients
presents a conflict of interest that, as fiduciaries, must be disclosed to Clients and mitigated through policies and
procedures. As noted above, the Advisor has adopted the Code to address insider trading (material non-public
information controls); gifts and entertainment; outside business activities and personal securities reporting. When
trading for personal accounts, Supervised Persons have a conflict of interest if trading in the same securities. The
fiduciary duty to act in the best interest of its clients can be violated if personal trades are made with more
advantageous terms than Client trades, or by trading based on material non-public information. This risk is mitigated
by Lakeridge requiring reporting of personal securities trades by its Supervised Persons for review by Principal and
Chief Compliance Officer (“CCO”). The Advisor has also adopted written policies and procedures to detect the misuse
of material, non-public information.
D. Personal Trading at Same Time as Client
While Lakeridge allows Supervised Persons to purchase or sell the same securities that may be recommended to and
purchased on behalf of Clients, such trades are typically aggregated with Client orders or traded afterwards. At no
time will Lakeridge, or any Supervised Person of Lakeridge, transact in any security to the detriment of any
Client.
Item 12 – Brokerage Practices
A. Recommendation of Custodian[s]
Lakeridge does not have discretionary authority to select the broker-dealer/custodian for custody and execution
services. The Client will engage the broker-dealer/custodian (herein the "Custodian") to safeguard Client assets and
authorize Lakeridge to direct trades to the Custodian as agreed upon in the investment advisory agreement. Further,
Page 12
Lakeridge Wealth Management LLC
Phone: (440) 510-1901 | https://lakeridgewm.com
Lakeridge does not have the discretionary authority to negotiate commissions on behalf of Clients on a trade-by-trade
basis.
Where Lakeridge does not exercise discretion over the selection of the Custodian, it may recommend the Custodian to
Clients for custody and execution services. Clients are not obligated to use the recommended Custodian and will not
incur any extra fee or cost associated with using a custodian not recommended by Lakeridge. However, the Advisor
may be limited in the services it can provide if the recommended Custodian is not engaged. As certain Advisory
Persons of Lakeridge are also Registered Representatives of PCS or Cetera, PCS or Cetera must also approve any
broker-dealer or custodian for use by the Advisor. Lakeridge may recommend the Custodian based on criteria such as,
but not limited to, reasonableness of commissions charged to the Client, services made available to the Client, its
reputation, and/or the location of the Custodian’s offices.
Lakeridge will generally recommend that Clients establish their account[s] at Charles Schwab & Co., Inc. (“Schwab”), a
FINRA-registered broker-dealer, member SIPC or Fidelity Clearing and Custody Solutions and related divisions and
entities of Fidelity Investments, Inc., including National Financial Services LLC, and Fidelity Brokerage Services LLC
(collectively “Fidelity”), a FINRA-registered broker-dealer and member SIPC. Fidelity or Schwab will serve as the
Client’s “qualified custodian.” Lakeridge maintains an institutional relationship with Fidelity and Schwab, whereby the
Advisor receives economic benefits from Fidelity and Schwab.
Lakeridge has established an institutional relationship with Fidelity to assist the Advisor in managing Client account[s].
Access to the Fidelity platform is provided at no charge to the Advisor. The Fidelity platform includes brokerage,
custody, administrative support, record keeping, technology and related services designed to support registered
investment advisors like Lakeridge in serving Clients. These services are intended to serve the best interests of the
Advisor’s Clients.
Fidelity may charge brokerage commissions (securities transaction fees) for effecting certain securities transactions.
Fidelity enables the Advisor to obtain certain no-load mutual funds without securities transaction fees and other no-
load funds at nominal transaction charges. Fidelity’s commission rates are generally considered discounted from
customary retail commission rates. However, the commissions and transaction fees charged by Fidelity may be higher
or lower than those charged by other custodians and broker-dealers. Please see Item 14 below for additional
information.
Following are additional details regarding the brokerage practices of the Advisor:
1. Soft Dollars - Soft dollars are revenue programs offered by broker-dealers/custodians whereby an advisor enters
into an agreement to place security trades with a broker-dealer/custodian in exchange for research and other services.
Lakeridge does not participate in soft dollar programs sponsored or offered by any broker-dealer/custodian. However,
the Advisor receives certain economic benefits from the Custodian. Please see Item 14 below.
2. Brokerage Referrals - Lakeridge does not receive any compensation from any third party in connection with the
recommendation for establishing an account.
3. Directed Brokerage - All Clients are serviced on a “directed brokerage basis”, where Lakeridge will place trades
within the established account[s] at the Custodian designated by the Client. Further, all Client accounts are traded
within their respective account[s]. The Advisor will not engage in any principal transactions (i.e., trade of any security
from or to the Advisor’s own account) or cross transactions with other Client accounts (i.e., purchase of a security into
one Client account from another Client’s account[s]). Lakeridge will not be obligated to select competitive bids on
securities transactions and does not have an obligation to seek the lowest available transaction costs. These costs are
determined by the Custodian.
A Client may pay a commission that is higher than another qualified custodian might charge to effect the same
transaction. The Advisor has determined in good faith that the commissions charged by Fidelity are reasonable in
relation to the value of the brokerage and research services received. In seeking best execution, the determinative
factor is not necessarily the lowest possible cost, but whether the transaction represents the best qualitative execution,
taking into consideration the full range of the Custodian’s services, including the value of research provided, execution
Page 13
Lakeridge Wealth Management LLC
Phone: (440) 510-1901 | https://lakeridgewm.com
capability, commission rates, and responsiveness. Accordingly, although the Advisor will seek competitive rates, to the
benefit of all Clients, it may not necessarily obtain the lowest possible commission rates for specific Client account
transactions. Although the investment research products and services that may be obtained by the Advisor will
generally be used to service all of the Advisor’s Clients, they may not equally benefit all Clients. Please also see Item
14.
B. Aggregating and Allocating Trades
The primary objective in placing orders for the purchase and sale of securities for Client accounts is to obtain the most
favorable net results taking into account such factors as 1) price, 2) size of the order, 3) difficulty of execution, 4)
confidentiality and 5) skill required of the Custodian. Lakeridge will execute its transactions through the Custodian as
authorized by the Client. Lakeridge may aggregate orders in a block trade or trades when securities are purchased or
sold through the Custodian for multiple (discretionary) accounts in the same trading day. If a block trade cannot be
executed in full at the same price or time, the securities actually purchased or sold by the close of each business day
must be allocated in a manner that is consistent with the initial pre-allocation or other written statement. This must be
done in a way that does not consistently advantage or disadvantage any particular Clients’ accounts.
Item 13 – Review of Accounts
A. Frequency of Reviews
Securities in Client accounts are monitored on a regular and continuous basis by the CCO. Formal reviews are
generally conducted at least annually or more frequently depending on the needs of the Client.
B. Causes for Reviews
In addition to the investment monitoring noted in Item 13.A., each Client account shall be reviewed at least annually.
Reviews may be conducted more frequently at the Client’s request. Accounts may be reviewed as a result of major
changes in economic conditions, known changes in the Client’s financial situation, and/or large deposits or withdrawals
in the Client’s account[s]. The Client is encouraged to notify Lakeridge if changes occur in the Client’s personal
financial situation that might adversely affect the Client’s investment plan. Additional reviews may be triggered by
material market, economic or political events.
C. Review Reports
The Client will receive brokerage statements no less than quarterly from the Custodian. These brokerage statements
are sent directly from the Custodian to the Client. The Client may also establish electronic access to the Custodian’s
website so that the Client may view these reports and their account activity. Client brokerage statements will include all
positions, transactions and fees relating to the Client’s account[s]. The Advisor may also provide Clients with periodic
reports regarding their holdings, allocations, and performance.
Item 14 – Client Referrals and Other Compensation
A. Compensation Received by Lakeridge
Lakeridge is a fee-based advisory firm, that is compensated solely by its clients and not from any investment product.
Lakeridge does not receive commissions or other compensation from product sponsors, broker-dealers or any un-
related third party. Lakeridge may refer Clients to various unaffiliated, non-advisory professionals (e.g., attorneys,
accountants, estate planners) to provide certain financial services necessary to meet the goals of its clients. Likewise,
Lakeridge may receive non-compensated referrals of new Clients from various third-parties.
Participation in Institutional Advisor Platform
As noted in item 12, Lakeridge has established an institutional relationship with Fidelity to assist the Advisor in
managing Client account[s]. As part of the arrangement, Fidelity also makes available to the Advisor, at no additional
charge to the Advisor, certain research and brokerage services, including research services obtained by Fidelity
directly from independent research companies. The Advisor may also receive additional services and support from
Fidelity. As a result of receiving such services for no additional cost, the Advisor may have an incentive to continue to
use or expand the use of Fidelity’s services. The Advisor examined this potential conflict of interest when it chose to
enter into the relationship with Fidelity and has determined that the relationship is in the best interests of the Advisor’s
Page 14
Lakeridge Wealth Management LLC
Phone: (440) 510-1901 | https://lakeridgewm.com
Clients and satisfies its client obligations, including its duty to seek best execution. Please see Item 12 above. The
Advisor receives access to software and related support without cost because the Advisor renders investment
management services to Clients that maintain assets at Fidelity The software and related systems support may benefit
the Advisor, but not its clients directly. In fulfilling its duties to its Clients, the Advisor endeavors at all times to put the
interests of its clients first. Clients should be aware, however, that the receipt of economic benefits from a Custodian
creates a conflict of interest since these benefits may influence the Advisors’ recommendation of this Custodian over
one that does not furnish similar software, systems support, or services. In addition, Fidelity has provided the Advisor
with financial support in the launch of the Advisor and reimbursements for various third-party service providers.
Lakeridge has also established an institutional relationship with Schwab through its “Schwab Advisor Services” unit, a
division of Schwab dedicated to serving independent advisory firms like Lakeridge. As a registered investment advisor
participating on the Schwab Advisor Services platform, Lakeridge receives access to software and related support
without cost because the Advisor renders investment management services to Clients that maintain assets at Schwab.
Services provided by Schwab Advisor Services benefit the Advisor and many, but not all services provided by Schwab
will benefit Clients. In fulfilling its duties to its Clients, the Advisor endeavors at all times to put the interests of its
Clients first. Clients should be aware, however, that the receipt of economic benefits from a custodian creates a
potential conflict of interest since these benefits may influence the Advisor's recommendation of this custodian over
one that does not furnish similar software, systems support, or services.
Services that Benefit the Client – Schwab’s institutional brokerage services include access to a broad range of
investment products, execution of securities transactions, and custody of Client’s funds and securities. Through
Schwab, the Advisor may be able to access certain investments and asset classes that the Client would not be able to
obtain directly or through other sources. Further, the Advisor may be able to invest in certain mutual funds and other
investments without having to adhere to investment minimums that might be required if the Client were to directly
access the investments.
Services that May Indirectly Benefit the Client – Schwab provides participating advisors with access to technology,
research, discounts and other services. In addition, the Advisor receives duplicate statements for Client accounts, the
ability to deduct advisory fees, trading tools, and back office support services as part of its relationship with Schwab.
These services are intended to assist the Advisor in effectively managing accounts for its Clients, but may not directly
benefit all Clients.
Services that May Only Benefit the Advisor – Schwab also offers other services to Lakeridge that may not benefit the
Client, including: educational conferences and events, financial start-up support, consulting services and discounts for
various service providers. Access to these services creates a financial incentive for the Advisor to recommend
Schwab, which results in a potential conflict of interest. Lakeridge believes, however, that the selection of Schwab as
Custodian is in the best interests of its Clients.
B. Compensation for Client Referrals
The Advisor does not compensate, either directly or indirectly, any persons who are not supervised persons, for Client
referrals.
Item 15 – Custody
Lakeridge is authorized to deduct its fees from the Client’s account[s] at the Custodian. The Client must place all
assets with a “qualified custodian”. The Client is required to engage the Custodian to retain all funds and securities and
direct Lakeridge to utilize that Custodian for security transactions in the account[s]. The Client should review
statements provided by the Custodian, as the Custodian does not perform this review. For more information about
custodians and brokerage practices, see Item 12 – Brokerage Practices.
If the Client gives Lakeridge authority to move money from one account to another account, Lakeridge may have
custody of those assets. In order to avoid additional regulatory requirements, the Custodian and Lakeridge have
adopted safeguards to ensure that the money movements are completed in accordance with the Client’s instructions.
Page 15
Lakeridge Wealth Management LLC
Phone: (440) 510-1901 | https://lakeridgewm.com
Item 16 – Investment Discretion
Lakeridge generally has discretion over the selection and number of securities to be bought or sold in Client accounts
without obtaining prior consent or approval from the Client. However, these purchases or sales may be subject to
specified investment objectives, guidelines, or limitations previously set forth by the Client and agreed to by Lakeridge.
Discretionary authority will only be authorized upon full disclosure to the Client. The granting of such authority will be
evidenced by the Client’s execution of an investment advisory agreement containing all applicable limitations to such
authority. All discretionary trades made by Lakeridge will be in accordance with each Client’s investment objectives
and goals.
Item 17 – Voting Client Securities
Lakeridge does not accept proxy-voting responsibility for any Client. Clients will receive proxy statements directly from
the Custodian. The Advisor will assist in answering questions relating to proxies, however, the Client retains the sole
responsibility for proxy decisions and voting.
Item 18 – Financial Information
Neither Lakeridge, nor its management, have any adverse financial situations that would reasonably impair the ability
of Lakeridge to meet all obligations to its clients. Neither Lakeridge, nor any of its Advisory Persons, have been subject
to a bankruptcy or financial compromise. Lakeridge is not required to deliver a balance sheet along with this Disclosure
Brochure as the Advisor does not collect advance fees of $1,200 or more for services to be performed six months or
more in the future.
