Taxes are complicated. They can be confusing and frustrating.

Because there are so many details which can easily be overlooked, taxes can also create a lot of uncertainty: Are you doing the right thing? Are you missing anything? Are you really taking advantage of every deduction and credit you could be?

When looking for an accountant, you want someone you can trust. You want someone who will take care of your financial information and who will do your taxes correctly. You want a CPA who knows their stuff, who doesn’t make mistakes or miss potential deductions, and who can walk you through the complexities of tax code.

You want more than just an expert accountant, you want an advisor and an advocate, someone who is on your team.

Independent contractors have taxes which are more complicated than wage-earning employees. Even if you only do it as a side job or hobby, IRS tax requirements become more complicated when someone is receiving 1099s. Additionally, you also now have the added headache of ensuring that you’re taking advantage of all the tax credits and deductions you are eligible for.

No one wants to receive a government notice. Probably one of the most dreaded pieces of paper you can get in the mail, IRS notices usually mean that action is required to avoid penalties. They can be complicated and hard to understand, referencing government rules only an accountant can understand.

We can help you interact with the IRS. By walking you through the process, we try to remove as much stress as possible. We’re an advocate and a teammate. You gain peace of mind and can get back to your life, knowing you’re taking the right actions to protect yourself.
