*While it is not required to use both firms, many value the simplicity of working with a single enterprise to integrate wealth management and tax for a fully coordinated solution. The scope of services provided depends upon the terms of the engagement and the specific requests and needs of the client. Beaird Harris does not serve as an attorney or insurance agent. Beaird Harris does not prepare legal documents, nor does it sell insurance products. If the client engages us to do so, Beaird Harris Wealth Management, LLC can provide tax preparation services through our CPA affiliate, Beaird Harris, PLLC, subject to a separate engagement and fee.
