Providing tax strategy - tailored to your personal goals & to maximize tax savings. Tax planning the year before tax filings helps optimize financial strategies, ensuring you capitalize on deductions and credits. It allows for adjustments to income and expenses, reducing tax liabilities and avoiding last-minute surprises. Proactive planning simplifies tax preparation and improves financial outcomes by aligning strategies with upcoming tax laws.
Responsive CPA - Our goal is to be highly communicative and responsive to our clients' needs. We recognize how frustrating it can be to experience poor communication and are committed to ensuring you always receive timely and clear updates.
Upfront pricing - You will know your fees upfront before engaging with us. Unlike many CPAs who charge hourly for tax planning, consulting, and return preparation, which can lead to unexpected costs, we provide clear, tailored packages that suit your needs. This way, you avoid the uncertainty of surprise billing and can confidently reach out with any questions.
Note: initial consult $150, to be applied to tax services.
