Akopyan & Company

Small-business accounting from a Seattle and Bellevue firm

Akopyan & Company is an accounting firm that serves businesses of every size around Seattle and Bellevue in Washington State. It operates under the Akopyan Group name and describes itself as a full-service CPA practice that treats clients like family. In December 2025 it announced that another local CPA firm had joined the group, with the same team and wider resources behind clients.

An approach built on regular check-ins

Its working principle is proactive guidance. Every service includes check-ins and strategic support so that the financial position is understood throughout the year and unpleasant surprises at tax time are avoided. Its Business Owners Package pairs bookkeeping with strategy, which the firm compares to having a part-time chief financial officer dedicated to the company's growth.

What the firm handles

• Business and personal tax returns, prepared so that liability is held down within what the rules permit. The firm points out that the business affects the owner's personal taxes, so the two returns are aligned.
• Bookkeeping and accounting, with timely financial reports so an owner always knows where things stand.
• Payroll through a partner company, Sound Payroll, which offers a cloud-based portal. The employer enters hours and the partner takes it from there, from direct deposit to W-2 forms, with electronic access for employees.

Questions the firm expects from owners

The site frames its services as answers to common worries: doubts about whether the books are right, a feeling of not really understanding the financial side of the business, and frustration with payroll. In each case it offers to give hours back so that owners can concentrate on running the company.

Guidance for individuals and families

Its articles cover tax topics that reach beyond business, such as the effect of marriage on taxes, tax and money advice for new parents, whether retirement income will be enough after taxes, and the tax meaning of basis in King County, Washington. A running thread is preparing for recessions and changes in tax rules.
