Our firm provides corporate and personal accounting and tax services that include: setting up employee benefit plans; analyzing business and individual investment strategies; preparing financial statements; offering money management options; developing tax planning strategies; and presenting business valuations. Within these categories, we have added specialties that move our expertise beyond the traditional CPA domain.

Our corporation includes a staff of 10 accounting and administrative professionals. We feel this staff size is exactly right for supporting our clients and goes hand-in-hand with our operating philosophy -- to ensure that all clients receive a strong, committed, professional program designed to fit their individual needs. To this end, our staff is chosen and trained to be highly motivated and competent. As we continue to grow, we plan to keep adding those individuals, that will support our philosophy and commitment.

OUR COMMITMENT TO EXCELLENCE

In 1977, the firm joined the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants, Private Companies Practice Section. Membership is voluntary and requires adherence to rigorous quality control standards. As a member firm, we must adhere to Institute Standards, submit to an independent peer review every three years, and ensure each staff person participates in at least 120 hours of continuing professional development  every three years. We have been successfully reviewed since 1981 (our first peer review), validating that we provide quality service to the public.
