Preparing your own income tax return can be a task that leaves you with more
questions than answers. According to a study released by the US Government's General Accounting Office last year, most
taxpayers (77% of 71 million taxpayers) believe they benefited from using a professional tax preparer.
Whether we like it or not, today's tax laws are so complicated that filing a relatively simple return can be
confusing. It is just too easy to overlook deductions and credits to which you are entitled. Even if you use a
computer software program, there's no substitute for the assistance of an experienced tax professional.
Here's what you get...
- Our
team members will review the information you send for completeness and
contact you (or your other trusted advisers) for missing data. Your tax
return will be checked by our team members and then rechecked by our computer
software. This helps identify potential problems the IRS may look at more closely
and reviews the math to limit IRS notices. Our last
step to ensure the accuracy of your return is the final partner review.
- Your
tax return will be filed electronically which protects your sensitive
data more than sending it through the mail. If you are overpaid, this also means you will get your
refund faster. For electronically filed returns, one less copy of the return is printed to paper which helps protect the environment. If you are interested, we can also send
you your return via our secure portal, saving yet another printed copy of
the return.
- We
store important copies of your tax documents in our electronic filing
cabinet. If you receive a notice of
audit from the IRS, we are able to quickly respond with the copies in our
file and your power of attorney to act on your behalf.

- Individuals

both C and S
- Limited Liability Companies (LLC)
electing to file as a sole proprietorship, partnership, or S-Corporation
