Kingston Ross Pasnak LLP

Tax services for cross-border and farm clients

Founded in 1945, the accounting practice Kingston Ross Pasnak LLP, which trades as KRP, is based in Edmonton, Alberta. By its own description, the firm is among the bigger independent practices in Western Canada, a size it says still allows the responsiveness of a small practice. Its tax team handles US cross-border tax services, scientific research and experimental development claims, agriculture and farm tax, retirement and estate planning, and Canadian corporate and personal tax.

Assurance, accounting and blockchain verification

Assurance and accounting work covers accounting and financial reporting, and the firm offers blockchain verification for external auditors. It says partners and managers take an active part in client work, so clients receive attention from senior people. The aim is to make sure financial information is accurate enough to support the decisions a business has to make.

Valuation and financial litigation support

For valuation or litigation needs, the firm works collaboratively to give objective answers. Its financial litigation support includes loss quantification, which estimates the financial damage a dispute has caused. The firm says it takes time to learn each client's industry, so that it can help clients see where their sector is heading.

Consulting, risk management and sector work

Consulting and special projects include risk management and internal audit, along with business and financial advisory. Its clients come from sectors such as energy, public bodies and property, and it says it adapts its advice as clients expand into new areas.

Local roots and community giving in Edmonton

Staff and partners live in Edmonton and raise their families there. The firm invests in the communities it works in and gives back in ways that make the city a better place. It describes its independence as the reason it can stay accessible and dependable.
