The Pitch

Why a Cincinnati CPA for a
New York business?

Cincinnati CPA rates run 30 to 50 percent under coastal rates with the same credentials and, in most cases, more attention. We are not a thousand-client mill.

You get a CPA who knows your name, returns your calls, and looks at your numbers more than once a year. Our partners review every client engagement personally.

New York businesses come to us because their last firm was billing $500 an hour for a junior associate to format a P&L. We think you deserve better.

Year-Round Partnership

What you get
every month of the year

Tax Strategy & Preparation

Quarterly planning, entity structure reviews, and proactive moves before December 31. Filing is included, not billed separately. Our average client cuts their effective tax rate by 8 to 12 points in year one.

Who We Serve

Built for
New York business types

We work with owners and high earners across multiple states and industries.

Multi-state operating businesses

Sales tax, payroll, and income tax filings across state lines. We handle nexus questions and the entity structures that hold up under audit.

Tech and agency owners with remote teams

SaaS revenue recognition, contractor versus employee questions, and equity comp planning for founders and key hires.

High-W2 executives with RSU and equity comp

RSU withholding shortfalls, AMT exposure, ISO planning, and quarterly estimated payments tuned to vest schedules.

Service businesses scaling past $1M

Entity restructuring, owner compensation strategy, and retirement plan design built around real cash flow.

We are honest about scope. We know multi-state filings, we know the entity structures that work in NY, and we partner with local NY tax attorneys when state-specific work calls for one.
