Building with Integrity Legacy Minded Values Driven Faithful Generous Underserved Purposeful

What makes us genuinely different

Your tax advisor and your wealth manager. Same person. Same meeting. Same obligation.

Most financial advisors are excellent at managing investments.

Most CPAs are excellent at filing taxes.

But almost none of them are talking to each other about your plan and that gap costs you more than you realize.

Daniel holds the CFP®, the CKA®, and the Enrolled Agent credential, the only firm in Charleston with this trifecta.

It means your wealth strategy and your tax strategy are built

  1. by the same person

  2. from the same understanding of your full picture,

  3. under the same fiduciary obligation.

No referrals. No handoffs. No plan sitting in two different offices that never quite align.


"I transferred from Merrill Lynch for Daniel's knowledge and expertise. He's brought things to light that were blind spots I didn't even know I had. I'm at a stage in life where I need guidance more than ever and it's comforting to know someone is genuinely looking out for me."

What We Offer

We genuinely do things different here and we probably do more for you also

We’re not for everyone and that’s a good thing

We don't work with everyone who reaches out and we think that's a sign of respect, not arrogance.

We're not the right fit for someone primarily looking for the lowest-cost option.

We're also not for someone who wants investment management only and is happy to outsource everything else.

Our work is deep and broad, so we will be spending a lot of time together. Like hopefully the rest of your life…

We keep our client count deliberately low so that every client gets the depth of attention that makes this work matter.

If you're looking for a relationship where someone actually knows your full situation and cares what happens to you (not just to your portfolio or your Monte Carlo analysis) we'd love to talk.

Who we work with best

The right client isn’t defined by a number but by a standard

We work with people who feel like their financial advisor has been managing their money but not their life.

Who want one person who actually knows their full picture.

Who believe that how you handle money says something about who you are.

We offer a range of services to meet the needs of every client. Have something else in mind? We'd be happy to work with you to create a custom quote.

Who We Are

Built on a word. Lived as a standard.

Daniel Heidel, CFP® · CKA® · EA

Founder

I didn't start Integritas because I had a brilliant business idea. I started it because I couldn't find a system I was willing to work inside of anymore.

The firms I worked for weren't corrupt. They were just insufficient. And I kept finding that the limitations on what I could offer clients, on how I could structure advice, on what I was actually allowed to prioritize were not limitations I could accept long-term.

I knew what good financial advice looked like. I couldn't deliver it from where I was standing. So I left to build the place I wanted to exist.

A few people shaped who I am in this work. My parents gave me access and opportunity. My professor at Liberty University, Kurt Cornfield, taught me that financial planning and faith weren't separate categories. My hockey coach, who now coaches at the Air Force Academy, gave me the definition of integrity I still live by: doing the right thing when no one is watching.

That sentence has governed more decisions in my professional life than anything I learned in a classroom. And then, in 2025, I converted to Catholicism. I came to the Church skeptically. I grew up Presbyterian with real biases about Catholicism, and I wanted to understand those biases well enough to defend them.

So I started reading. I started attending Mass. I started having conversations I hadn't expected to have. And somewhere in that process, I stopped trying to win the argument and started experiencing something I couldn't explain away. What changed wasn't what I do. It was how I understand what I'm doing.

This work is a calling now, not a career. I am responsible, not just professionally, but in some deeper sense for how my clients' financial decisions ripple into their families and their communities and their legacies.

That weight doesn't frighten me. It clarifies everything.

I built Integritas to be the firm I couldn't find anywhere else. Not the biggest. Not the most decorated. The most trustworthy. The most whole.

The one that people in Charleston say, without hesitation, is the place to go when what you want is someone who actually cares what happens to you, not just to your portfolio.

Money is not wealth. Wealth is not the end goal. Flourishing is.

Too many people die with a net worth that
damaged rather than added to their lives.

More accumulation was never the answer. Passive decisions about money lead to destruction. Only active, guided, accountable decisions lead to flourishing.

Wealth has the power to
destroy or to unite. One of those outcomes is a passive choice. The other requires deliberate work.

Your financial life and your faith life are not two separate categories.
They never were. The best financial advice has always looked like stewardship, caring for something that was never entirely yours to begin with.

Integrity is doing the right thing when no one is watching.

We do this work as if everything we do is visible.
Because it is, to the people who matter most.
