Our Legacy
Built on a Foundation of Trust, Service, and Stewardship
Leon Hollingsworth founded our firm in 1957 with a vision to provide reliable, personal financial guidance to the Raleigh community. For over 60 years, his work ethic and integrity shaped the way we serve our clients.
In 1978, Roy L. Avent joined the firm, becoming a Principal and expanding our services into new industries and deeper advisory relationships. Roy helped lead HAA&P into a new era—providing tax and management consulting for clients across real estate, business ownership, and estate planning.
Today, we carry forward their legacy with every client interaction—combining deep technical expertise with a genuine commitment to service.
