HA&W Wealth Management
HA&W Wealth Management functions as a multi-family office anchored in Atlanta, emerging from the accounting and advisory ecosystem of HA&W — a regional CPA firm with decades of presence in the Southeast. The wealth management practice carries the professional-services ethos of its accounting roots forward, combining tax strategy, estate planning, and investment management under a single advisory umbrella. This integration is the defining architecture of the firm: families enter through tax complexity and stay through investment continuity. The investment strategy rests on a goals-based allocation framework rather than a single house view. Clients receive portfolios built from public equities, fixed income, and a curated roster of third-party private alternative funds — including private equity, private credit, and real assets. The firm does not market itself as a direct deal sponsor, instead acting as an allocator and fiduciary gatekeeper to external managers. Its Southeastern base gives it a natural concentration in family-held operating businesses, regional real estate, and intergenerational wealth transitions typical of the Atlanta, Charlotte, and Nashville corridors. The firm's scale is undisclosed. No public AUM figure exists, and the professional headcount is not published. HA&W Wealth Management operates without satellite offices outside Atlanta, reinforcing a deliberate high-touch model rather than a national growth strategy. The absence of a LinkedIn company page and a minimalist web presence suggests a practice that grows through professional referral networks — attorneys, CPAs, and business brokers — rather than institutional marketing. Structurally, the firm sits at the intersection of a CPA practice and a registered investment advisor. That dual identity is unusual: most multi-family offices originate from either the trust-bank world or the wirehouse breakaway movement, not from an accounting firm partnership. For the Southeastern business-owner client, this means the advisor who helps structure the sale of a company can also advise on the investment of the proceeds — a continuity of counsel that standalone RIAs often must outsource.

Frequently asked questions
Is HA&W Wealth Management a standalone firm or part of a larger organization?
It operates as the wealth management practice connected to HA&W, a regional CPA firm based in Atlanta. The accounting partnership provides tax, assurance, and business advisory services, while the wealth management arm delivers investment and planning services to the same client base. This structure makes it a multi-family office embedded within a professional services firm, rather than a breakaway RIA or a trust-company affiliate.
How does HA&W Wealth Management source clients?
Client acquisition flows primarily through the accounting side of the firm and through professional referral networks in the Southeast. Business owners, executives, and families already working with HA&W on tax or estate matters are introduced to the wealth management practice. External marketing is minimal — the firm's web presence is modest and it does not maintain a public LinkedIn profile, consistent with a referral-driven professional-services model.
Does the firm invest directly in private companies or only through funds?
HA&W Wealth Management functions as an allocator, not a direct sponsor. It constructs client portfolios using third-party private alternative funds — covering private equity, private credit, and real assets — alongside public market positions. There is no public evidence that the firm organizes direct co-investments or operates proprietary deal-by-deal vehicles.
What is the firm's geographic focus?
The firm is headquartered in Atlanta and its client base is concentrated in the Southeastern United States, with natural reach into Georgia, North Carolina, Tennessee, and surrounding markets. This regional density reflects the CPA-firm referral network, which is itself built on relationships with Southeastern business owners, family enterprises, and real estate investors.
What is the relationship between HA&W the CPA firm and HA&W Wealth Management?
HA&W Wealth Management is the investment advisory practice operating alongside the CPA partnership. The two share brand identity and client crossover but maintain the operational separation required by securities regulation — the wealth management entity is a registered investment advisor, while the CPA firm delivers attest, tax, and consulting services. This is the firm's defining structural feature: a single client relationship spanning tax compliance and portfolio management.
