Tax law is a complicated affair that changes with each season.

This discipline enables me to offer a full range of tax planning, preparation, and support services.

Tax Planning
Proactive planning is the key to minimizing your tax liability. I work with businesses and individuals to pay the least amount of tax required by law. A few of the strategies that I consider include:
-
Shifting income or expenses from one year to another when it can yield a lower tax rate
-
Deferring or eliminating tax liability through use of tax-advantaged investment vehicles
-
Tracking all expenses eligible for itemized deduction
-
Taking advantage of tax credits
-
Advising you of the benefits of retirement plan contributions
Your unique circumstances will determine the strategies that I can employ to maximize the money you keep in your pocket.
