WHY BRIARWOOD

Most Firms Handle One Piece of Your Financial Life. We Handle All of It.

Your financial advisor doesn't know what your accountant filed last year. Your accountant has no idea what's in your portfolio. Your bookkeeper? Never seen your business plan.

That gap—between the people who are supposed to be working together—is where real money quietly disappears.

Briarwood was built to close it. Our wealth management, tax, accounting, and business consulting teams all work from the same plan. They share information in real time. So instead of you playing telephone between four different professionals, everyone's already on the same page.

You stop repeating yourself. We stop giving you advice that's only seeing part of the picture.

That's why we lead with "Are we a good fit?"—not "Are you ready to sign?"

GETTING STARTED IS SIMPLE

Here’s What the First Steps Look Like—for Any Service

Regardless of which service brings you to Briarwood, the path to getting started is the same: a brief call to get your situation, a deeper conversation to identify what’s possible, and a clear proposal so you know exactly what working together would look like before making any commitment.

01.

Initial Call

A free, 30-minute call to understand what’s bringing you in — whether that’s a tax question, an investment decision, a business challenge, or something else entirely. No agenda, no pressure. We ask good questions and listen well.

Discovery Meeting

If we’re a good fit, we’ll schedule a deeper discovery meeting. Here, we take a closer look at your financial picture, priorities, and opportunities across planning, investments, taxes, and—if applicable—business finances.

03.

Proposal Review

You’ll see exactly how we’d work together, which services we recommend, what the fees look like, and what the next steps are. We walk you through everything so you can make a confident, informed decision—with no pressure to move forward before you’re ready.

Each service has its own onboarding process that begins after the proposal review. If you’re here for tax preparation, bookkeeping, or business consulting, you can see the full process on the relevant service page.

What to Expect

Questions We Hear Before the First Call

We’ve outlined answers to common questions about how we work, who we serve, pricing, and what the first steps look like—so you can move forward with peace of mind.

What services does Briarwood offer?

We offer four integrated services: wealth management, tax preparation, accounting and bookkeeping, and business consulting. You can engage us for one service, multiple services, or all four — depending on what your situation calls for.

How does your integrated approach work?

Our teams share information and coordinate in real time. When your tax professional knows your investment strategy, and your wealth manager knows your tax situation, every decision accounts for the full picture. That coordination is what most firms can’t offer.

Do you offer ongoing support or one-time engagements?

Both. Wealth management and bookkeeping are ongoing relationships. Tax preparation is typically annual. Business consulting can be ongoing or project-based. We’ll recommend the right structure during the proposal review.

Who are your services best suited for?

Individuals, families, and business owners who want proactive, coordinated financial guidance. If you’re tired of managing multiple professionals who aren’t talking to each other, Briarwood was built for you.

How is pricing structured?

It depends on the service. Tax preparation is priced by the forms required for your return — you can estimate your cost using the calculator on our Tax Preparation page. Wealth management is fee-only and AUM-based. Bookkeeping and consulting are custom-quoted. All pricing is discussed transparently before any work begins.

Do you work with clients nationwide?

Yes. Briarwood is based in the Pacific Northwest and serves clients across the country through a mix of in-person and virtual meetings. Most of our ongoing client relationships are conducted virtually.

Do I have to use all four services?

Not at all. You can come to us for just tax preparation, just bookkeeping, or just wealth management. Many clients start with one service and expand over time. Our best work happens when we’re coordinating across multiple areas — but that is an invitation, not a requirement.
