HOW ARE WE DIFFERENT?
- We conduct engagements utilizing former senior level state and federal tax personnel averaging over twenty-seven years with the state revenue departments or with the Internal Revenue Service.
- Not being an accounting firm, we are not confined by many of the accounting firm conflict requirements of Sarbanes-Oxley.
- We have over nineteen years of experience providing quality services to mid-sized and Fortune 500 companies in virtually every industry.
- We offer creative and innovative tax recovery solutions to our clients, many of which are not known to the general public, accounting firms or other tax advisors.
