Professional Service Firms
As accountants, we have a lot in common with architects, engineers, physicians, dentists, and lawyers. Each profession requires specific training and licensure by the state of Virginia, practitioners have deep passion for their specialty, and we face many of the same business challenges.
Given all that we share, it should come as no surprise that Hantzmon Wiebel has long had a specific practice geared to professional service firms. We understand the shared rewards of this type of business model and can offer insights and advice based on our years of experience with these types of firms. We know what it takes for professional service firms to achieve optimal tax efficiency in all areas of the practice to maximize the economic return to owners. We know what does and does not work.
Our Professional Services Include:
