Services

Tax work that covers the year, not just April.

Choose a service below, or send a message describing the situation. If we are not the right fit, we will say so.

  • Form 1040, W-2s, a fountain pen, and reading glasses on a walnut desk.

    Individual income tax

    We prepare federal and state individual returns from the documents you already have — W-2s, 1099s, education and child credits, and investment statements. Missing pieces get flagged early. You receive a filed return and a short recap of what you owe or are due.

  • A ledger, calculator, invoices, and LLC papers on a desk.

    Small business taxes

    Entity returns only work if the books behind them are clean. We reconcile income, expenses, and owner activity before we file, so K-1s, estimated payments, and year-end tax are not a surprise. Tell us how the business is set up; we will tell you what the return needs.

  • A shoebox of receipts, 1099 envelope, notebook, and car keys on a kitchen table.

    Sole proprietor / Schedule C

    If you get paid on 1099s or cash and run the work yourself, Schedule C is an option. We sort deductible expenses from personal ones, handle home office and vehicle when they actually qualify, and set quarterly estimates so April is not a shock.

  • House keys, a lease, a floor plan, and a Schedule E folder.

    Real estate / Schedule E

    Schedule E is where rental activity lives. We track income, repairs versus improvements, depreciation, and QBI where it applies — for one door or a small portfolio. Bring the closing statement, the prior depreciation schedule if you have it, and the year of activity.

  • A wall calendar marked with quarterly dates and estimated-tax vouchers.

    Quarterly estimates

    Self-employed, rental, and business income is taxed as you earn it, not only in April. We set voucher amounts from a real projection, adjust after a strong or slow quarter, and keep the due dates on a calendar you can follow.

  • A tax projection spreadsheet, pencil, and simple line chart on graph paper.

    Tax planning & forecasting

    Planning is a projection, not a slogan. We model the year from current books and pay, then show what a hire, an equipment purchase, a retirement contribution, or an entity change actually does to tax — in time to act, not after the year has closed.

  • A December 31 desk calendar and year-end tax folders.

    Year-end tax planning

    Most of what can still change a return has a calendar-year deadline. We review where you stand before year-end and name the few moves that matter — what to pay, what to defer, what to document.

  • An opened notice letter, reading glasses, and a file on a desk.

    Tax consulting

    Not every question is a full engagement. If you have an IRS or state letter, a sale, a new activity, or a prior return you want reviewed, send the documents. We will tell you what it means, what we would file, and what it would cost to have us handle it.

  • A notary seal, stamp, unsigned affidavit, and identification card on a desk.

    Notary public services

    Bring a valid photo ID and the unsigned document. We notarize affidavits, acknowledgments, and related business or tax papers. Call or send a message to confirm availability.

Not sure where you fit?

Describe the year you are in — a new Schedule C, a rental, quarterly estimates, or a return that got more complicated. We will point you to the right work.
