Your retirement future is too critical to entrust tax planning to Big-Box Franchise Tax Prep Services or Do-It-Yourself Software! The value of Professional Tax Preparation by a Retirement Planner cannot be understated.

We believe that our comprehensive retirement, tax and income planning proficiency will become evident as we work together to establish a deeper business relationship. This is a no-obligation, no-strings-attached way to get to know us better while having your taxes professionally prepared for less.
As well as completing the tax returns, we analyze prior returns and investment portfolios to identify tax consequences and evaluate the future to see what can be done to reduce income tax obligations. With effective analysis and planning we have saved our clients thousands of dollars in taxes each year. In one recent case, we discovered a $28,000 overpayment error and facilitated recovery of the entire sum for the client.
For customers with more challenging situations, we are aligned with several local CPAs who work directly with us to optimize your tax situation. You need to feel confident that the amount you pay has been minimized.
