Accountant’s Review and Compilation |
Our financial statement services attend to two basic levels of assurance depending on your company’s needs. These services meet the needs of most family owned enterprises.
- An Accountant’s Review Report provides limited assurance to outside interests and involves inquiries and analytical procedures that confirm financial statement matters and identify any items requiring further analysis.
- An Accountant’s Compilation report is by far the most commonly requested service for internal purposes and is based upon information provided by a company’s management. This report does not offer assurance but may involve some adjustment to accounting records.
In the event a full service audit examination of your financial records is needed we will refer you to a competent service, and provide audit support for your examination. Having a boutique specialist monitor the progress of your audit can result in significant overall cost reductions. |

Financial and Retirement Planning |
| Life involves transitions. When financial matters are important in preparing for retirement or a change in life style, a financial professional can be useful in reaching your financial goals and maintaining financial independence through a comfortable retirement. We can guide you through tough decision-making processes such as asset allocation, investment performance monitoring, college education funding, retirement plans, insurance, and tax, estate, and business succession planning. Whether you are developing an investment strategy or evaluating current investments, we can ensure that your portfolio will take into account tax implications for an advantageous after-tax return. |

Litigation Support and Forensic Accounting |
| Civil lawsuits have become ever more common. Attorney services are often not sufficient to provide a proper defense or effort for asset recovery. A financial professional can be of great value in researching financial records, determining a strategy for defense, or tactics for asset recovery as the situation merits. We have experience in this area, and our services are often far more economical than those provided directly by attorneys. |
