Larry Peterson, MS, RSP, CFP®
Amicus Financial Advisors
Larry is a Certified Financial Planner™ professional and Registered Settlement Planner (RSP) based in Utah, with a master’s degree in Personal Financial Planning from Texas Tech University. His career in financial planning began with a moment of inspiration during a finance class when his professor, Madeline Thimmes, encouraged students to "follow the numbers if they sing to you." Taking that advice to heart, Larry changed his major from finance to personal financial planning, embarking on a journey to help others navigate complex financial decisions with confidence.
Over the last 16 years, Larry and his team have focused on helping clients invest and progress towards their financial goals. The past decade has been focused on serving individuals and families who have received legal settlements, including many with disabilities. This work has given Larry extensive experience in coordinating government benefits, special needs trusts, ABLE accounts, and financial principles that support long-term stability and security for all clients. He takes pride in tailoring strategies to help families navigate the unique challenges of managing financial resources alongside essential care and benefits.
Larry’s personal life has also shaped his professional perspective. He has a daughter who was born with a congenital heart defect. By the grace of God and skilled medical professionals, she is doing well. The memories of having a temporary second home at Primary Children’s Hospital remain near and dear as clients and friends undergo their own medical journeys. These experiences have deepened his understanding of the joys and struggles families experience when supporting loved ones with disabilities.
When not working, Larry enjoys wandering in the mountains with his family. He and his wife of 20 years have five children, a dog, and several chickens.
