Tax Services
After more than four decades of tax planning and preparation, our team has the knowledge and expertise our clients require in nearly every facet of their personal lives and businesses. We have found that it is best to take a proactive versus reactive approach to tax services. We personally meet with each of our clients to discuss tax history, goals, and financial needs and then develop strategies to meet them.
Our size and structure provide excellent allocation of human capital. Because we have grown from a small practice to a mid-sized firm, we still strictly adhere to a team-based approach to problem solving and business strategy. Our tax team works closely with our assurance, financial, and accounting services teams to help not only reduce tax liabilities but also develop astute financial and business strategies.
Our size and structure allow the flexibility for a principal to work closely with clients to develop more tax efficient individual and business strategies. The synergies produced by our close knit teams allow for learning and sharing, which give you a whole-company strategy. Our services and skills are reflected in many cleint relationships that have spanned more than 30 years.
Throughout our history, we have guided our clients through tax law changes, business formations, mergers and acquisitions, taxing authority disputes, estate and gift tax planning, divorce and support issues, and state, local, and federal tax planning and preparation matters.
