Frequently asked questions
When should a CPA be involved in a business decision?
Before terms are final whenever possible. Entity changes, compensation, purchases, financing, and ownership transactions can be harder to improve after documents are signed.
Do you work with the company’s attorney or lender?
Yes, when the engagement requires it and the client authorizes coordination. Each professional remains responsible for advice within their specialty.
Can you help negotiate with the IRS?
Our professional prior IRS experience guides the professional work with tax notices and IRS problems. The appropriate response depends on the notice, records, deadlines, and the procedural posture.
