Get Help Tax and Bookkeeping

Get Help Tax and Bookkeeping takes on tax and bookkeeping work for law firms and for small owners across the 50 states. Its typical client is a small business owner with ten or fewer employees who wants responsive, professional tax guidance without being pulled into the detail of accounting. Clients can work from anywhere: they send their paperwork through an online portal, and the firm prepares and files the returns on cloud accounting software.

Enrolled Agents who can represent taxpayers

The firm's tax work is carried out by Enrolled Agents. A federally licensed tax professional, the Enrolled Agent can appear for taxpayers before the IRS. Such agents are independent accountants, not government staff, and they hold the same IRS rights as CPAs. Their remit is not restricted to federal tax.

Help with state tax and audits

Because an Enrolled Agent's authority is not confined to federal matters, the firm can help a client when a state places a lien on property, assesses tax incorrectly or opens an audit.

Trust in a licensed professional

The firm points out that Enrolled Agents must pass a background check and complete continuing education on tax issues to keep their license. It presents this as the reason clients can rely on the people preparing their returns.

Bookkeeping in the cloud

Bookkeeping is delivered on cloud accounting software, which lets records be kept and reviewed from wherever the client is, in keeping with the remote way the firm works.

Services for law firms

Law firms are one of the two client groups the firm serves, alongside small business owners. Its published guidance for law practices covers starting a practice, keeping a solo practice going when work is unpredictable, and the trade-offs of limited liability company partnerships.
