Our Services

Tax Preparation

Filing your taxes with the help of a tax professional can help you alleviate stress, save you time, and give you peace of mind. Tax professionals have the knowledge, credentials, and hands-on experience to assist you with your tax preparation. A tax professional stays updated on tax laws, rules, and regulations, which can change yearly and significantly impact how much you owe or get back in your tax refund. The IRS can authorize tax professionals to represent you on tax and payment matters. Such professionals are known as Federally Authorized Tax Practitioners (FATPs).
There are three main types of FATPs recognized by the IRS related to tax return preparation:
Certified Public Accountants (CPAs)
Enrolled Agents (EAs)
Tax attorneys

Tax Resolution

If you own money to the IRS, you may be looking for solutions and require professional assistance. Tax resolution is the process of working with the IRS and tax professionals to find a solution to your tax problems. The IRS is the most powerful collection agency in the world. Every year they attempt to collect back taxes from millions of taxpayers across the country. To do this, they are equipped with an arsenal of tools such as liens, levies, wage garnishments, seizures, and more.
They also have a set of rules they have to follow, known as the Internal Revenue Manual (IRM) and the Internal Revenue Code (IRC). Because these rules and procedures can get complicated, the government allows taxpayers to retain professional representation.

What People Say

Brian has been instrumental in helping us formulate our sales and marketing strategy this year. We highly recommend him to any company looking to make quick forward progress.

Alex Frost, Quickflora

I call Brian Williams my "transformation COO." As a management consultant, he has been helping us recalibrate our company from being an entrepreneurial enterprise to being a more stable, predictable, and one-day sellable company. No fat on him -- straight up, to the point and effective in coaching, cultivating culture, organizational development, systems and processes, sales, and finance. Highly recommend him.

Palmer Holt-President, PR, Crisis Communications, Executive

I worked with Brian while I was with a previous company. He was superb to work with and was able to take a new offering from the conceptual to full sales cycle. His knowledge as well as network was tremendous. If you are a startup or small business looking to grow, I’d highly recommend working with Brian.

Mike Stehn-Strategy and Transformation Consulting Senior Manager

Brian is one of the best leaders I have ever worked with. In the complexity of military leadership, he is gifted at recognizing the problem, analyzing the requirements & through a suggestive and collaborative style is a master at deploying all of his assets to accomplish the mission. He is a team builder and instills empowerment through the culture of his teams. I honestly learn something from Brian Williams every time I am with him!

Nate Moore-Sales and Marketing Executive

Brian is an intuitive and effective leader who understands the many (and often nuanced) layers needed to run a successful business in a number of industries. He's an expert communicator, a willing collaborator, and his dedication to his clients is unparalleled.
