Good to know
Two things worth saying plainly
What we don't do
We are not licensed to perform attest work. Preparing GAAP-basis financial statements for your own internal or management use is different from issuing an opinion on them: audits, reviews, and compilations are referred to a partner firm that specializes in them rather than performed here. If that's what you need, we'll point you to the right place.
How fees work
Fees are based on the complexity of the engagement rather than a flat rate, and you get a written quote before any work begins. We don't start work and hand you a bill afterward.
Not sure which of these you need?
Most conversations start with a description of the situation rather than a service name. Tell us what's going on and we'll tell you what it takes.
