We emphasize timely, accurate service. Typically, we assign one partner and one or more staff accountants to each business client. This provides the method by which several people in our office are always familiar with each account all of the time. We have a stated firm goal of returning completed monthly financial statements within fifteen days of receipt of client financial information. You can expect completed corporate tax returns from us within thirty days of receiving your year-end accounting information. We strive to return all client inquiries the same day, but no later than the following day.
Our firm has specialized technical skills in addition to broad base accounting and tax expertise. These include computer installation, training and support, management advice in inventory control, job cost and project management, etc. We have a staff of CPAs, Enrolled Agents and staff accountants. Each is experienced not only in completing assignments on time, but in locating tax saving ideas and streamlining client information systems. Our staff is eager to demonstrate their abilities and take great pride in helping clients.
We have a state of the art computer system which often allows us to fix your problems from our office. Once the problem is fixed, you can disconnect the "call" and your system is fully independent again. This reduces billing time to you and minimizes disruption in your office.
