Hi, I’m Gerry Barrasso. I am a Registered Investment Advisor (RIA) and the founder of United Financial Planning Group. I provide financial planning, tax preparation and wealth management services on a fee only advisory basis. I bring over three decades of financial advisory experience to my practice.

My professional career began in 1991 as a CPA for Price Waterhouse. There, I was assigned to the firm’s Technology Industry Group where I gained extensive knowledge working with start-up businesses helping take several companies public. I also worked as the Corporate Controller of a leading public company in Long Island. During this time, I gained experience in corporate finance, SEC reporting, taxation, and investing.

My journey into financial planning & wealth management began with a focus on tax planning and small business consulting. The collaboration with my clients’ investment advisors was an eye-opening experience and revealed the conflicts of interest that can occur within the financial services industry. Recognizing the need for transparency and client-aligned interests, I embraced the ethos of fee-only financial planning and wealth advisory.

This commitment to unbiased, client-centric service was the catalyst for a new venture. It paved the way for the creation of a firm where integrity, transparency, and fiduciary responsibility are not just principles, but the foundation of all our client relationships. And thus, United Financial Planning Group was born – a testament to the belief that the client’s best interest should always be at the heart of financial advisory. Through this commitment, United Financial Planning Group has grown to 3 locations with over $260M in Assets Under Management.
