The Tax Burners History
For over 50 years we have been serving the Greater Milwaukee, Wisconsin (and National) community with outstanding tax and accounting services. Our Firm stands for Integrity, Stability, Quality, and Excellence.
Our clients DESERVE the best accounting and tax services, and that’s what we provide. We do this with YOUR best interests in mind (not ours)! (How many businesses today can say that truthfully?)
Our background is heavily concentrated in taxes. As former IRS and State of Wisconsin tax auditors, we know how the government works and how to keep you out of trouble. We use our experience to work for YOU!
With tax audits on the rise, your chance of being audited is a very scary proposition. Many CPAs, enrolled agents, and tax preparers are scared by the government and their audits, because they don’t know what to watch for, what their options are, or how to dispute and/or protect their client. Frankly, squaring off against the IRS or State Dept. of Revenue SCARES them (as it should)!
The Difference:
We know what to watch for in an audit, what to look out for, and how to protect our clients against intimidating auditors. The government does not scare us! LET US HELP YOU!.
