WELCOME TO OUR WEBSITE

Although some of my clients have compared preparing their tax returns to having a root canal, I believe that we have succeeded in making the experience at least bearable if not enjoyable. We have tried to create a relaxed atmosphere. Our office is in an 80+ year old home in downtown Kennewick that we have renovated and converted to an office. You will not be dealing with a large franchised tax service where you will have to explain your situation to a different and sometimes inexperienced tax preparer every year. I try to spend enough time with each client to answer questions and deal with any concerns they may have. I am personally acquainted with all of our clients. I have been in the tax preparation business for the past 30 years including about 25 years as owner of Tri-Cities Tax. We provide tax preparations services to both individuals and businesses including Corporations, Partnerships, Trusts, etc. We also provide many additional services such as payroll and Washington State excise tax filing. See the services tab above for a complete list of the services we offer.

We are committed to doing what is necessary to make sure our clients receive the highest refunds legally possible and for those not getting a refund, we focus on limiting your tax liability.

I have a reputation within the Tri Cities as both a highly knowledgeable and a trusted tax advisor who provides solid advice for his clients. This credibility enhances my ability to do a good job for all of my clients. Even those clients that have moved away over the years continue to use my services as their tax preparer using mail and email.
