1)        We are fiduciaries.  That means we serve you exclusively.  We sell only our unbiased opinions and expertise to
assist in solving your issues.  We have NO hidden compensation structures or deals.  We charge strictly for our time.

2)        We have a solid expertise in not only traditional CPA areas but offer a very broad perspective to deal with life’s
unexpected and wide range of events and scenarios.  While we are not “self-proclaimed” experts in all areas, we offer a
unique and refreshing perspective that we believe cause us to be different than most CPAs and CPA firms.  We are not
your typical “bean counters”.  

3)        We are educated and trained on an extensive basis driven around issues that impact you.  All of our professionals
have superior academic backgrounds and have extensive experience.  We speak in real and everyday terms not code.  

4)        We employ secure and leading technological advances in our work with you to ensure your affairs are handled in
a very efficient manner.  We make extensive use of email, internet, scanned documents/imaging, other communication
forms, and leading edge software to interface, work, and deliver work products/results.  This allows us to serve clients
that are physically located all around the world—literally.  

5)        We have proven experience dealing with the IRS on behalf of our clients.  We have successfully resolved
numerous issues for clients ranging from simple to very complex.  Whether we are working to ensure issues do not
arise or they already have --- we can deal with it.  We will rigorously defend you in any tax representation before any tax
authority.

6)        We conduct ourselves with the highest levels of professionalism and ethics.  We return phone calls.  We respond
to our clients and are extremely accessible.  We treat everyone in a manner like we wish to be treated.  Your information
is confidential.  We take numerous safeguards to ensure it remains such including office, information technology, and
employee measures.  We don’t remove client files/information from the office to work on them somewhere else.     

7)        All relationships are centered on expectations.  We work hard to make sure that expectations are properly formed
and maintained.  We do not take all potential clients that come in the door.  We are not a fit for everyone.  Our services
are in very high demand.  In the rare occasion that our relationship with a client needs to end, by misalignment of
expectations or other reasons, we maintain the principle outlined in #6 above in our dealings with any client.

8)        Our costs are driven exclusively by time spent working for a client.  We generally do not perform work on flat rates
unless all involved are certain of the all of the work needed including the form under which the information is supplied to
perform the work is clearly identified.  We allocate work internally to minimize cost by assigning work to lowest cost staff
member capable, with proper supervision and review, of doing the work needed.  This results in a blended rate to
produce the work product.  Our hourly rates range from $60/hour to $250/hour.  We are open in discussions with client
on ways they can reduce costs spent with us.  We provide good faith estimates before we undertake work, when
requested.  All of our work product and time is competitively priced.  We serve a wide spectrum of clients.  

9)        We are your tax advocate.  That means we want our clients to not pay anymore in taxes then current tax law
requires.  That does not mean we make use of every “water cooler” strategy that your co-worker thinks is ok or another
tax professional suggests.  Being your advocate also means knowing the limits of any strategy and taking a defendable
approach.  The United States operates on a complete voluntary tax system.  Anyone can put anything on a tax return.  
Supporting and defending the approach under current tax law when being challenged is an entirely different matter.

10)        We are very personal with our clients.  We seek to forge professional relationships that will last a lifetime.  Our
skills and training can work for you in dealing with all of life’s changes.  Changes like getting married, having children,
those children growing up, planning for retirement, career changes, buying a house, starting/buying a business, selling
a business, estate planning, making major decisions---the list goes on –as does life.  

We truly wish you the very best in all you do.  Please contact any member of the firm if you would like us to discuss how
we may serve you or to any answer questions you might have.

Thank you for the interest in our firm!  Please feel free to contact any member to address any questions you might have.
