Compliance Audits & Risk Assessments
Compliance: As a Certified Fraud Examiner we will review your files to ensure you are in compliance with the requirements and laws for your specific industry. Whether that is MSDA sheets, OSHA records, employment records, etc, we will review your files and provide a written report on our findings.
Risk Assessment: Sometimes it is after the fact that business owners realize they needed to have stronger internal controls. We are trained to evaluate internal controls, and suggest ways to mitigate internal risks. Let us assess your internal controls, so you can focus on growing your business.
IRS Resolution
Did you receive that dreadful IRS letter? Do you owe back taxes? As an Enrolled agent, we can help you. Enrolled agents are the only federally-licensed tax practitioners who specialize in taxation. Enrolled agent status is the highest credential the IRS awards, and like attorneys and certified public accountants (CPAs), have unlimited practice rights to represent taxpayers before the IRS. In most cases we can simply respond to the letter, furnish the required proof and documentation and the issue is resolved. Some of the more complex issues may require more in-depth research and responses. Do not attempt to talk to the IRS alone. You cannot “explain it away” and “I didn’t know” is not an excuse. We are professionals and know how to state your claims and defend your tax return. Call us, let us help alleviate some of your stress.
Notary Public
We are a state-licensed public servant and we perform a variety of duties involving official or legal documents. We can administer oaths, serve as witnesses to signed documents, take sworn testimony (depositions), and verify or certify official documents or copies of official documents (some restrictions). We will verify and certify your legal documents, personal agreements, medical attention documents, school activity documents, and more.
Payroll Services

With the constantly changing federal, state and local laws, along with workmen compensation and all of the other industry specific regulations, payroll management is an ongoing challenge for business owners.

Sales Tax Services
State and local tax authorities are looking to maximize sales tax collections and sales tax audits are one of the worse experiences for a business owner. However, with the correct filing and record keeping it can be less worrisome. We can help you understand and manage your sales tax obligations and prepare sales tax returns in an efficient and timely manner.

Effective tax planning can help minimize your future tax liability. We can help you proactively manage your business and your personal tax issues.
