Item 4 – Advisory Business
Legacy Financial Advisors Corporation (“Legacy”) is a wealth-management firm founded in 1996
specializing in retirement, investment, and estate planning. Principal owners Tom Menzel and
Laura Biermann seek to develop individualized solutions to address specific goals and needs in
guiding Clients through complex financial situations. Our team prides ourselves on clear and open
communication, friendly and, reliable service, and on maintaining the highest levels of integrity in
all aspects of our business. Above all, we seek to provide our Clients with absolute financial clarity
and steadfast confidence in our dedication to their unique financial goals.
Tom Menzel is the firm’s president and majority shareholder in Legacy Financial Advisors Inc. He
has over 35 years of providing financial planning advice to individuals. Laura Biermann, Principal
owner, and minority shareholder is the firm’s Vice President. Tom and Laura hold the CERTIFIED
FINANCIAL PLANNER® designation. Legacy offers the following services to Clients:
• Wealth/Portfolio Management & Selection of Private Money Managers; and/or
• Financial/Estate/Retirement Planning.
Wealth/Portfolio Management & Selection of Private Money Managers
The investment proposal presented to a Client is tailored to match their risk tolerance, investment
objectives and time horizon. Legacy will jointly define an investment objective or develop an
investment policy with the Client and advise the Client regarding the selection and monitoring of
the Client’s portfolio. Legacy uses an independent qualified custodian to maintain Client accounts,
specifically Schwab Advisor Services (“Schwab”). Our primary investment vehicles are those
available on the Schwab platform and include but are not limited to active and passively managed
mutual funds, exchange traded funds and individual securities. In addition to those investments,
Legacy may also provide investment advice on 529 college savings plans, insurance-based
investments, 401k, 403b,457 or 401a retirement savings accounts and other investment vehicles
that might be available to our Clients.
1
Financial/Estate/Retirement Planning
Legacy provides advice in the form of financial and estate plans. Clients selecting this service will
receive a written report, providing the Client with details of their current financial situation,
suggestions, and recommendations to help them work toward their financial goals and objectives.
Financial planning may cover any or all of the following areas:
• Retirement planning
• Education planning
•
Inheritance/Estate planning
• Asset allocation
• Special needs planning
• Asset management
• Tax planning
•
Insurance needs analysis
• Other areas of importance to the Client
For Clients who choose financial planning, Legacy gathers information through in-depth personal
interviews to assess a Client’s current financial status, future goals, and attitudes toward risk.
Clients also complete a detailed questionnaire supplied by Legacy and are also required to furnish
certain records and documents to Legacy for review. These documents may include tax returns,
W2s and/or 1099s, information on current retirement plans, insurance provided by the Client’s
employer, mortgage information, insurance policies, statements reflecting current investments in
their retirement and non-retirement accounts, copies of wills or trusts, and other documents that
may be deemed pertinent at Legacy’s request.
Upon receipt of these documents, Legacy will review the Client’s current financial situation and
make recommendations based on the Client’s financial goals and expectations, investment
objectives and investment time horizon. At the same time, the Client’s risk tolerance (or ability to
live comfortably with risk in association with their investments) will be considered. A written plan
will then be presented to the Client along with an outline of suggestions to improve the Client’s
current financial situation as well as suggested steps to help reach the stated investment goals.
2
At no time is the Client under any obligation to implement (with Legacy or with any other firm) any
or all the suggestions as outlined in the financial plan. Implementation is solely at the Client’s
discretion. It is the responsibility of the Client to notify Legacy of any changes to their financial
situation or objectives that may impact the focus of the financial plan.
Assets Under Management
As of December 31, 2025, Legacy Financial Advisors manages approximately $317,668,456 in
assets in 948 accounts. Approximately $312,867,320 is managed on a discretionary basis and
$4,801,136 on a non-discretionary basis.
Item 5 – Fees and Compensation
Wealth Management Fees
Accounts that are managed by Legacy will be charged based on a percentage of assets under
management. When Legacy manages Client assets, the wealth management fee (as outlined) is the
only fee charged by Legacy, and Legacy will not charge an additional fee for estate planning or
general financial consulting. The wealth management fee percentage is dependent on the scope
and extent of services provided and the value of assets managed. The wealth management fees for
Clients of Legacy are negotiable and typically fall into a range between .70 % and 1.25%. Fees are
determined at the outset of the advisory relationship when an advisory contract is executed with
the Client. Fees are billed at the beginning of each quarter and collected in advance.
Private Money Manager Fees
Private Money Managers charge fees for consulting and administrative services, as do the
underlying individual money managers. These fees, which are calculated as a percentage of assets
under management and vary by money manager, are in addition to the fees charged by Legacy and
will be fully disclosed prior to the Client signing a Private Money Manager’s agreement. Clients
should review the Private Manager’s Form ADV, Part 2A for a full description of all fees. The
clearing firm that holds the accounts may charge transaction fees to the Client to buy or sell
individual stocks or mutual funds. These fees are not shared with Legacy nor does Legacy receive a
sales commission on transactions executed by the private manager’s clearing firm. Transactions
3
costs and/or ticket charges generated from the Private Money Manager’s trading will be the
responsibility of the Client.
Conditions for Managing Accounts & General Information about Fees
Legacy Financial Advisors has a targeted investment minimum of $500,000 of investable assets per
household. This minimum may be waived in certain instances. Account minimums for Private
Money Managers are listed in their respective Form ADV, Part 2A.
The specific way fees are charged by Legacy is established in the Client’s written agreement with
Legacy. Clients may elect to be billed directly for fees or to authorize Legacy to directly debit fees
from Client accounts for investment management. Fees will be billed at the end of the calendar
quarter that the client initiated their wealth management engagement with Legacy. Fees are billed
in advance for the upcoming quarter with inception fees being calculated and charged a prorated
fee on each deposit. If a client terminates their engagement with Legacy, fees will be returned
based on the remainder of the quarter after the termination is in effect.
A Client agreement may be canceled at any time, by either party, for any reason upon receipt of 30
days written notice. Upon termination of any account, any prepaid, unearned fees will be promptly
refunded, and any earned, unpaid fees will be due and payable. The Client has the right to
terminate an agreement without penalty within five business days after entering into the
agreement.
Item 6 – Performance-Based Fees and Side-By-Side Management
Legacy does not charge any performance-based fees (fees based on a share of capital gains on or
capital appreciation of the assets of a Client).
Item 7 – Types of Clients
Legacy provides portfolio management services primarily to individuals and various family trusts,
as well as charitable institutions, foundations, and endowments.
4
Item 8 – Methods of Analysis, Investment Strategies and Risk of Loss
The method of analysis employed at Legacy is primarily fundamental analysis using information
from Morningstar, fund prospectuses, information and research obtained from investment
management companies including Schwab, Private Money Managers, and others that we feel are
beneficial. Employees of Legacy also attend or take part in on-site and off-site visits with
representatives of investment funds, participate in industry conference calls, and periodically may
attend industry conferences.
The primary investment strategy we use for Client investment portfolios is strategic asset
allocation. Portfolios are generally diversified to reduce risk from any one sector or region. The
investment strategy for a specific Client is based upon the objectives, income needs, and tax
situation stated by the Client during consultations. The Client may change these objectives at any
time.
Our strategies and investments may have unique and significant tax implications. Regardless of
your account size or other factors, we strongly recommend that you continuously consult with a tax
professional prior to and throughout the investing of your assets.
Investing in securities involves risk of loss that clients should be prepared to bear. Although we
manage your portfolio with strategies and in a manner consistent with your risk tolerances, there
can be no guarantee that our efforts will be successful. Specific risks that each Client should
understand, as they may be applicable to their own investment portfolio, include:
Market Risk. The market values of securities owned may decline, at times sharply and
unpredictably. Market values of equity securities are affected by several different factors, including
the historical and prospective earnings of the issuer, the value of its assets, management decisions,
decreased demand for an issuer’s products or services, increased production costs, general
economic conditions, interest rates, currency exchange rates, investor perceptions and market
liquidity.
Economic Risk. Changes in economic conditions, including, for example, interest rates, inflation
rates, political and diplomatic events and trends, tax laws and innumerable other factors, can
substantially and adversely affect investments.
5
Asset Allocation Risk. Asset Allocation may have a more significant effect on account value when
one of the more heavily weighted asset classes is performing more poorly than the others.
Diversification and strategic asset allocation do not assure profit or protect against loss in declining
markets.
Concentrated Portfolio Risk. To the extent a portfolio invests in or holds a limited number of stocks,
it may have more risk because changes in the value of a single security may have a more significant
effect, either negative or positive, on the strategy’s performance.
Foreign Investment Risk. Investments in the securities of foreign issuers may experience more rapid
and extreme changes in value than funds with investments solely in securities of U.S. companies.
This is because the securities markets of many foreign countries are relatively small, with a limited
number of companies representing a small number of industries. Additionally, foreign securities
issuers may not be subject to the same degree of regulation as U.S. issuers.
Fixed Income Risk. Including: interest rate risk, which is the chance that bond prices overall will
decline because of rising interest rates; income risk, which is the chance that a strategy’s income
will decline because of falling interest rates; credit risk, which is the chance that a bond issuer will
fail to pay interest and principal in a timely manner, or that negative perceptions of the issuer’s
ability to make such payments will cause the price of that bond to decline; and call risk, which is the
chance that during periods of falling interest rates, issuers of callable bonds may call (repay)
securities with higher coupons or interest rates before their maturity dates. The investment would
then lose any price appreciation above the bond’s call price and would be forced to reinvest the
unanticipated proceeds at lower interest rates, resulting in a decline in the investment’s income.
Alternative Investment Risk. Alternative investments create exposure to markets and investment
strategies that cannot be accessed through traditional fixed income and equity markets and may
result in a lack of liquidity in that there may be no secondary market for alternative investments.
Alternatives are exposed to potential loss of all or a substantial portion of the investment due to
leveraging, short-selling or other speculative investment practices. Returns may be volatile, there
may be delays in tax reporting and there are typically restrictions on transferring interests.
Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning Risk. Certain service providers utilized by the Firm to
service client accounts have artificial intelligence components. The use of artificial intelligence and
6
machine learning includes increased risk of data inaccuracies and security vulnerabilities. Due to
the rapid advancement of machine learning technologies, future risks related to artificial
intelligence are unpredictable. As a measure to mitigate these risks to our clients, the Firm
performs periodic due diligence of our service providers for assurance that the service providers
have appropriate controls in place to protect our clients’ information and to limit data inaccuracies
when artificial intelligence is used by the service provider.
Legacy’s investment strategies may include margin transactions, futures and options. As these
strategies involve additional degrees of risk, they will only be recommended to Clients for who such
risk is appropriate.
Item 9 – Disciplinary Information
Registered investment advisers are required to disclose all material facts regarding any legal or
disciplinary events that would be material to your evaluation of Legacy or the integrity of Legacy’s
management. Legacy has no information applicable to this Item.
Item 10 – Other Financial Industry Activities and Affiliations
The principal business of Legacy is to provide financial planning and investment management
services to individuals. As part of a financial plan, it may be recommended that insurance coverage
is purchased or modified. The advisors at Legacy maintain licenses to sell life and long-term care
insurance products in Minnesota through various companies. If a policy is sold by an advisor with
Legacy, we may receive a commission from that sale. If we refer Clients to other agents for
insurance products including life, health, disability or property and casualty, we do not receive any
direct compensation.
These practices present a conflict of interest because it gives the IAR an incentive to recommend
products based on the commission amount received. This conflict is mitigated by the fact that IARs
of Legacy have a fiduciary responsibility to place the best interest of the client first and the clients
are not required to purchase any products. Clients have the option to purchase these products
through another insurance agent of their choosing.
7
From time to time, Legacy may provide advice or consulting services with respect to estate
planning as part of a Client’s overall financial plan.
Item 11 – Code of Ethics, Participation in or Interest in Client Transactions and Personal
Trading
The Investment Advisers Act of 1940 (“The Act”) imposes a fiduciary duty on investment advisers.
As a fiduciary, Legacy has a duty of utmost good faith to act solely in the best interests of our
Clients. Our Clients entrust us with their money and financial future, which in turn places a high
standard on our conduct and integrity. Our fiduciary duty compels all employees to act with the
utmost integrity in all our dealings. This fiduciary duty is the core principle underlying this Code of
Ethics and Personal Trading Policy, represents the expected basis of all our dealings with our
Clients and is reviewed annually with all Legacy employees. For a complete copy of the Code,
please contact Tom Menzel at 952-893-5555.
The Code of Ethics adopted by Legacy consists of the following core principles:
1. The interests of Clients will be placed ahead of the firm’s or any employee’s own investment
interests.
2. Employees are expected to conduct their personal securities transactions in accordance
with the firm’s Personal Trading Policy and will strive to avoid any actual or perceived
conflict of interest with Clients.
3. Employees will not take inappropriate advantage of their position within the firm.
4. Employees are expected to act in the best interest of each of our Clients.
5. Employees are expected to comply with all applicable securities laws.
As a fiduciary, Legacy has an affirmative duty of care, loyalty, honesty, and good faith to act in the
best interests of its Clients. Compliance with this duty can be achieved by trying to avoid conflicts of
interest and by fully disclosing all material facts concerning any conflict that does arise with respect
to any Client. As well, Legacy does not execute cross transactions between Clients.
Conflicts among Client Interests. Conflicts of interest may arise where Legacy or its employees have
reason to favor the interests of one Client over another Client (e.g., larger accounts over smaller
accounts, accounts in which employees have made material personal investments, accounts of close
8
friends or relatives of employees). Favoritism of one group of Clients over another is prohibited
under the Code.
Competing with Client Trades. The Code prohibits Legacy employees from using knowledge about
pending or currently considered securities transactions for Clients to profit personally, directly, or
indirectly, because of such transactions, including by purchasing or selling such securities.
Disclosure of Personal Interest. Legacy employees are prohibited from recommending,
implementing, or considering any securities transaction for a Client without first disclosing any
material beneficial ownership, business or personal relationship, or other material interest in the
issuer or its affiliates to Legacy’s Chief Compliance Officer. If the Chief Compliance Officer deems
the disclosed interest to present a material conflict, the employee may not participate in any
decision-making process regarding the securities of that issuer. Legacy does not execute cross
transactions in client accounts.
All information concerning the identity of security holdings and financial circumstances of all
Legacy Clients (both current and former) or prospective Clients is confidential.
Item 12 – Brokerage Practices
In general, Legacy will recommend the use of Schwab or Private Money Managers to Clients for
implementation of financial planning recommendations, provided that this recommendation is
consistent with Legacy’s fiduciary duty to the Client. Legacy chooses the investment(s) and/or the
trading platform based on the skills, reputation, and dependability of the firm. It is not based upon
any financial arrangement between Legacy and the recommended broker. Any commissions or
other compensation received from the implementation of financial planning recommendations is
separate and distinct from Legacy’s advisory fee. No financial planning Client is obligated to use
Schwab or a Private Money Manager to implement any recommended transactions and Legacy
handles the implementation of a Client’s financial plan on a non-discretionary basis.
Schwab provides Legacy with access to its institutional trading and custody services, which are
typically not available to Schwab retail investors. These services generally are available to
independent investment advisors on an unsolicited basis, at no charge to them, so long as a
minimum amount of the advisor’s Client’s assets are maintained in accounts at Schwab Advisor
9
Services. These services are not contingent upon Legacy committing to Schwab any specific
amount of business (assets in custody or trading commissions). Schwab’s brokerage services
include the execution of securities transactions, custody, research and access to mutual funds and
other investments that are otherwise generally available only to institutional investors or would
require a significantly higher minimum initial investment.
For Legacy’s Client accounts maintained at Schwab, Schwab generally does not charge separately
for custody services but is compensated by account holders through commissions and other
transaction related or asset-based fees for securities trades that are executed through Schwab or
that settle into Schwab accounts.
Schwab Advisor Services also makes available to Legacy other products and services that benefit
Legacy but may not directly benefit its Client’s accounts. Many of these products and services may
be used to service all or some substantial number of Legacy’s accounts, including accounts not
maintained at Schwab.
Schwab’s products and services that assist Legacy in managing and administering Client’s accounts
include software and other technology that (i) provide access to Client account data (such as trade
confirmations and account statements); (ii) facilitate trade execution and allocate aggregated trade
orders for multiple Client accounts; (iii) provide research, pricing and other market date; (iv)
facilitate payment of Legacy’s fees from its Client’s accounts; and (v) assist with back-office
functions, recordkeeping and Client reporting.
Schwab also offers other services intended to help Legacy manage and further develop its business
enterprise. These services may include (i) compliance, legal and business consulting; (ii)
publications and conferences on practice management and business succession; and (iii) access to
employee benefits providers, human capital consultants and insurance providers. Schwab may
make available, arrange and/or pay third party vendors for the types of services rendered to
Legacy. Schwab may discount or waive fees it would otherwise charge for some of these services or
pay all or a part of the fees of a third party providing these services. Schwab may also provide other
benefits such as educational events or occasional business entertainment of Legacy personnel. In
evaluating whether to recommend or require that Client’s custody their assets at Schwab, Legacy
may consider the availability of some of the foregoing products and services and other
arrangements as part of the total mix of factors it considers and not solely on the nature, cost or
10
quality of custody and brokerage services provided by Schwab, which may create a potential
conflict of interest.
If the Client chooses to use a Private Money Manager, Legacy may establish an account on the
Client’s behalf with the money manager their custodian to maintain Client accounts and execute
trades as directed by the money manager. Legacy may collect certain financial information
regarding Client’s and make this information available to the Private Money Managers, as
appropriate.
Item 13 – Review of Accounts
Managed accounts are monitored and reviewed at least quarterly by a Legacy principal. Financial
and estate plans are reviewed as requested. Accounts not on the Schwab or Private Money
Manager platform (referenced above) are reviewed on a quarterly basis, or as stated in the Client
agreement.
Managed accounts receive quarterly portfolio evaluation reports from Legacy. All Clients receive
accounts statements directly from their qualified custodians, broker/dealers, mutual funds, and
other money managers as appropriate. Legacy urges you to carefully review such statements and
compare such official custodial records to the reports that we may provide to you. Our reports may
vary from custodial statements based on accounting procedures, reporting dates, or valuation
methodologies of certain securities.
Item 14 – Client Referrals and Other Compensation
Legacy Financial Advisors does not compensate persons or entities for referring Clients to Legacy.
Historically, Legacy staff actively sold insurance products and on occasion may receive trailing
commissions on previously written business. Current insurance is minimal. Insurance coverage
obtained through Legacy staff agents may be obtained elsewhere, at the client’s discretion.
Item 15 – Custody
Custody is a term used to describe the role of the entity that maintains and reports on investment
assets held in client accounts. These services are typically provided by brokerage firms or banks.
11
The role of a qualified custodian is highly specialized, independently protecting each client’s assets
in a role that complements the responsibilities of an advisory firm like Legacy. There are instances
where Legacy is deemed to have custody even though the assets are held with a qualified custodian.
Specifically, Legacy has custody because of a limited number of specific client agreements to use
client credentials to access outside accounts. In these scenarios, Legacy has an additional obligation
to contract with an approved public accounting firm to conduct an external annual surprise exam of
these activities.
Aside from these specific situations, Legacy also has custody of assets, in those cases where clients
have established third party standing letters of authorization and in those instances where clients
have authorized the automatic deduction of periodic advisory fees directly from their account. If
clients wish to elect automatic payment of advisory fees from their account, clients must authorize
this election in the advisory contract. The qualified custodian remits the fees directly to Legacy and
records a debit transaction on each client quarterly account statement.
Clients receive at least quarterly statements from the custodian that holds and maintains their
investment assets. Clients are urged to carefully review such statements and compare such official
custodial records to the reports provided by Legacy. Our reports may vary from custodial
statements based on accounting procedures, reporting dates, or valuation methodologies of certain
securities.
Item 16 – Investment Discretion
Legacy usually receives discretionary authority from the Client at the outset of an advisory
relationship to select the identity, the amount to be invested and the securities to be bought or to
make changes in a Client’s portfolio related to the choice of money managers without Client
approval. In all cases, however, Legacy exercises such discretion in a manner consistent with the
stated investment objectives for the Client account, observing the investment policies, limitations,
and restrictions of each Client, which must be provided to Legacy in writing.
Trading in Client accounts will be limited to general securities (stocks and bonds), mutual funds
and government securities. Private Money Managers operate with trading discretion as well.
12
Item 17 – Voting Client Securities
Recent corporate scandals have created renewed investor interest in corporate governance and
have underscored the need for investors to focus on this issue. In response, the Securities and
Exchange Commission (“SEC”) adopted new rules on the proxy voting policies and procedures for
investment advisers. As part of these new rules, Legacy is required to furnish the Client with this
short guide to our proxy voting policies and procedures. For a complete copy, please contact Tom
Menzel at 952-893-5555.
Legacy always owes its Clients a duty of care and a duty of loyalty. This means that if granted the
authority to vote proxies Legacy must always vote in the Client’s best interests – not anyone else’s.
Legacy must maintain copies of all proxy votes cast on the Client’s behalf and will provide the Client
with this information upon request. Legacy may choose not to vote some proxies we receive, as it
may not be in the Client’s best interest for us to do so. Examples of this may be when the
administrative burden or expense to do the due diligence on a vote or to cast the vote (i.e., the vote
must be cast in person) outweighs the benefits of the proxy request. Legacy will also maintain any
memorandum we prepare internally during our research of a particular issue.
Examples of factors that Legacy will consider when voting on matters presented to us by the firms
invested in are changes in corporate governance structures; adoption or amendments to
compensation plans (including stock options); matters involving social issues or corporate
responsibility; or items that may affect the fees that are charged. These, and other factors, will be
considered as to how they may affect the Client’s investment. For the Client’s mutual fund
investments, our factors may be different than those already listed, but they will probably include
such things as: approval of advisory contracts, distribution plans (i.e., 12b- 1 plans), and mergers.
For proxies to elect candidates to directorships of a public company or mutual fund, Legacy will
vote in favor of the ballot recommendations of the corporation or fund unless Legacy has personal
knowledge of a problem or has a direct conflict of interest.
Should Legacy have material conflicts of interest with a particular company or issue presented for
vote, Legacy will disclose those to the Client first and receive the Client’s approval for our vote on
the Client’s behalf. If possible, Legacy will provide this in writing; but if time is short (i.e., less than
thirty days), Legacy will contact the Client by phone. Legacy will not vote these issues without the
13
Client’s prior approval. Currently Legacy is unaware of any conflicts of interest that would be
considered material in nature; but of course, this may change as our business continues to grow.
Should the Client wish to retain authority to vote their own proxies, Legacy will arrange to have all
proxy solicitations sent to the Client’s address of record. Legacy is always available to provide
Clients with guidance on these issues.
For those with assets through a Private Money Manager, Client proxies will be directed to the
underlying money management firm, and they have authorization to vote proxies issued on the
Client’s behalf. Legacy feels these money managers are knowledgeable about the companies they
invest in, and as such, will have the necessary expertise to vote.
Item 18 – Financial Information
Registered investment advisers are required in this Item to provide you with certain financial
information or disclosures about Legacy’s financial condition. Legacy has no financial commitment
that impairs its ability to meet contractual and fiduciary commitments to Clients and has not been
the subject of a bankruptcy proceeding. Legacy does not require or solicit the prepayment of
$1,200, six or more months in advance.
