Service. Simplified.
The U.S. tax code is the most complex in the world by any measure. Despite an objective by congress to simplify the tax code, the recent tax reform act resulted in greater complexity. In fact, the tax code is now over 10,000 pages, and over 4,000 changes are already proposed in current legislation. Consequently, tax preparation is a confusing, complicated endeavor that is difficult to understand for most taxpayers. Our objective is to simplify the tax preparation process, and bring it into a form that is understandable and actionable for you.
