Just a quick note on the last bullet point. CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER certification is granted in the US by CFP Board, and you can find out if a CFP Board has publicly disciplined a CFP professional through CFP Board's Web site (www.CFP.net/search).
Many financial planners are registered with NASD, and they provide a great tool for background checks: NASD BrokerCheck (www.NASD.com/brokercheck).
Financial planners are also commonly registered with state securities and/or insurance regulators, and those regulators can also be a great resource for conducting a background check.
