  I offer CPA related services to businesses and individuals. The services I offer include business structuring & licensing, tax advisory, tax preparation, payroll processing, bookkeeping, personal financial planning and budgeting. If you are unhappy with the level of service you receive from your CPA or if you'd like to hear about additional tax strategies that may be a good fit for your business, please contact me at 541-661-1801 to schedule a free consultation. I am currently taking new clients. My firm is growing, but I refuse to overdevelop my book of business and sacrifice service in the process. Perhaps that sounds familiar, if it does you owe it to yourself and your business to seek an alternative. Show less
