No tax demand is too unique
In addition to our dedicated team of CPAs, Enrolled Agents, and tax professionals, many of our wealth advisors and business managers are CPAs, attorneys, or have advanced tax degrees. Our clients have distinct needs that often require specialized tax planning and advice. For instance, we help executives understand when and how to exercise stock options and other equity incentives, provide pre-liquidity tax planning for business owners who are selling a business, consider multi-state tax issues that arise for our entertainment and athlete clients, and help to optimize charitable gifts and wealth transfers to future generations for many of our clients.
Whatever your situation, our objective is to provide the specialized advice you require.

Proactive, year-round planning to help minimize burdens.
Our tax professionals work proactively year-round with business and non-profit organizations identifying key tax planning opportunities that help minimize taxes today and in the future. We provide tax planning and return preparation, domestic tax planning, local and multi-state tax compliance, and IRS and state audit representation.
