Rates

& Fees

The firm's billing rate is $300 per hour. Compliance work such as tax returns and financial statements are arranged via a fixed fee based on the complexity of the assignment.  Research and consulting work is arranged using estimated hours for completion. All fees are discussed up front to avoid any billing surprises.

The firm does employ minimum charges for tax return preparation in order to cover basic overhead and administrative time spent regardless of the complexity of the return.

The minimum charge for an individual return is four hours of professional time or a $1,200 fee. For a corporate, partnership, LLC or similar entity return, the minimum fee is six hours of professional time or a $1,800 fee.

Please keep in mind that these minimums are for simple returns where all books and records are properly organized prior to their submission.  We recommend that if you are concerned about the number of hours it will take to complete your return and did not receive a quote at your initial client meeting, you should request a detailed assessment of the hours and related fees for your particular situation prior to having us begin work.
