Would an S-Corp save you money?

Move the sliders. The number updates as you go.

Check this against your real numbers

Estimate only, using 2025 federal rates. It does not account for the QBI deduction, your other income, state income tax, or your specific facts — all of which can move the answer materially. This is not tax advice. Talk to us before making an election.

Sound familiar?

Most of our clients come to us after something went wrong.

A notice arrives. The books haven't been reconciled since spring. The return got filed on an extension and nobody looked at the numbers. None of that is unusual — and all of it is fixable.

Behind on the books

Months — sometimes years — of uncategorized transactions. Catch-up work is routine here.

An IRS notice on the counter

As an Enrolled Agent we can correspond with the IRS on your behalf. That's what the credential is for.

Paying more tax than you should

Usually an entity that made sense three years ago and hasn't been revisited since.

Payroll deadlines you keep missing

Payroll penalties are the most avoidable bill a small business receives.

How it works

Three steps, no mystery

  1. 01

    Free consultation

    Thirty minutes on the phone or in person. You describe the situation; we tell you plainly what it will take and what it will cost.

  2. 02

    A written quote

    Scope and price in writing before any work starts. Catch-up work is quoted separately from ongoing work so you can see both.

  3. 03

    We get to work

    One named person handles your account. You are not routed through a call center or reassigned every quarter.

Local, actually

We serve Anaheim and nearby

Working with someone in your own time zone who knows your state's filing requirements is worth more than it sounds like it should be.

Tell us what's going on. We'll tell you what it takes to fix it.

Thirty minutes, free, no obligation. Bring the notice, the shoebox, or just the question you've been putting off.
