Graham Capital Wealth Management, an independent RIA based in Florida, has broadened its service offerings with a new tax and accounting practice.
Graham Capital, which has branches across the District of Columbia, Tampa, and Sarasota, announced the launch of Regis Tax and Accounting.
The new venture aims to serve both individual and corporate clients with an array of tax and accounting services. David Gearhart, a seasoned professional in the tax and accounting field, will helm the operations at Graham Capital’s new sister firm.
Managing director Stash Graham, who leads his namesake independent wealth firm alongside Michael Berkahn, says the firm's addition of Regis Tax and Accounting’s capabilities is a strategic move that addresses “the growing demand for expert tax professionals.”
“As a highly qualified tax attorney and CPA, [Gearheart’s] diverse skill set will be a welcome supplement to the services we currently offer, and our clients only stand to benefit with someone of his caliber now on our team,” Graham said in a statement.
With over three decades of experience in the field, Gearhart's career spans roles at prestigious organizations including Summit Wealth Management and Morgan Stanley. Beyond accounting, his professional toolbox includes legal expertise honed over years as an attorney successfully representing clients in IRS matters.
Operating from Graham Capital's offices in Tampa and Sarasota, Gearhart will apply his comprehensive experience in tax law to aid clients with various needs, including tax preparation and estate planning.
His role also extends to supporting business owners through services such as bookkeeping, payroll, and corporate tax preparation, leveraging his background in corporate transactional law and finance.
“I am excited to join this team of highly qualified financial professionals and look forward to helping our clients navigate complex tax-related situations to better preserve their wealth and hopefully give them more peace of mind,” Gearheart said.
"Advisors don't want to sacrifice flexibility and ownership in order to access that institutional quality resources and support," Concurrent's Joe Mooney says as his Merchant-backed RIA crosses $20 billion AUM.

“We wanted to do shareholder activism,” says Chicory Wealth founder and CEO Max Kulyk.
A nearly 90-point basis point increase from Fidelity led one RIA to move all of their long-short SMA client accounts to Schwab.
