Family Offices in Seattle

20 family offices are on this list, 11 are single family offices, 4 are wealth managers, 1 is a multi-family office and 4 are of other kinds, in 4 places. The largest group is in Seattle, with 16.

Few of them report assets in a public filing: Cercano Management $7.3 billion. Most family offices manage their own capital and need not register with a regulator, so the list leads with what each states about itself.

Each figure's pin opens the filing it comes from: the adviser's Form ADV as filed, or the SEC filing index of its 13F report or of the latest private offering notice (Form D). The pin's label names the source and its date.
What we searched
On we searched every office by its website against the websites advisers list on Form ADV, by the CRD the list cites, by name for Form ADV, and by every CIK found for 13F reports, and searched private offering notices for funds named for it. Of the 20, 2 report on a current Form ADV, 2 file 13F reports (2 for a 2026 quarter with a value), 1 have funds named for them in private offering notices, and 0 more show a possible match by name only in their detail, not counted.
