We make tax preparation simple.
If you are a new client, we ask that you provide us with:
Your prior tax return(s), current tax documents, and complete (as much as possible) the organizer forms (see the link below) to assist you with gathering all of your tax return information as well as assembling it, as orderly as possible so that we can keep our fees as low as possible.
Download the organizer forms that apply to you, fill them out, and call to schedule an appointment. Parking is provided.
If getting downtown is a problem, we use a courier service in Greater Grand Rapids that can pick up and deliver your information – (within 2 – 4 hours) – free of charge.

- Do you believe I’m paying too much, too little, or just the right amount of tax? Our philosophy is echoed by former Supreme Court Justice, Judge Learned Hand. “”Anyone may arrange his affairs so that his taxes shall be as low as possible; he is not bound to choose that pattern which best pays the treasury. There is not even a patriotic duty to increase one’s taxes. Over and over again the Courts have said that there is nothing sinister in so arranging affairs as to keep taxes as low as possible. Everyone does it, rich and poor alike and all do right, for nobody owes any public duty to pay more than the law demands.”
