 |
| Litigation Support |
| The firm has done litigation support for several prestigious law firms and large publicly held corporations. |
|
| Financial Statements |
| There are two levels of service relating to unaudited financial statements which are called compilation and review. The difference is that the accountants' opinion does not provide any level of assurance on the financial statements that are compiled. Whereas, the accountants' review opinion provides limited assurance that financial statements are in conformity with general accepted accounting principles. (See Audit Services below). |
|
| Estate & Trust Tax Preparation |
| Our experiences allow us to prepare fiduciary tax returns for both estates and trusts. |
|
| Audit Services |
| Audits differ from reviews and compilations, as they are an intensive examination of your company's systems and records providing the highest level of assurance. The American Institute of Certified Public Accountants requires all accounting firms, that conduct audits or prepare financial statements, to be subject to its Peer Review Program that includes internal monitoring of quality control procedures and documents. Every three years our quality control system and audit practices are audited by an outside, independent accounting firm that reports its finding to the Connecticut Society of Certified Public Accounts. Since the inception of the Peer Review Program our firm has received unqualified audit reports. |
|
| Tax and Estate Planning |
| Tax consequences affect the bottom line of virtually every business and personal financial decision. We monitor legislative, regulatory, and judicial developments affecting your tax liabilities and tailor our services to your needs.
Effective estate planning facilitates the orderly transfer of assets to your beneficiaries, provides security for your surviving spouse, and can reduce or eliminate the tax due on the transfer of your business and other assets. For business owners, providing for business continuity and succession of ownership is essential. We can guide you through the complex process of getting your financial affairs in order. |
|
| Accounting Software Selection & Implementation |

As accounting professionals, we are exposed to most programs. Our experienced staff can help you choose and implement the system that best fits your needs. |
