South Florida

CPA & Accounting in South Florida

Tax preparation and accounting for individuals and small businesses, plus the bookkeeping that makes the return straightforward instead of archaeological.

What this covers

  • Personal and business tax preparation
  • Bookkeeping and financial statements
  • Entity setup and structure
  • Florida sales tax and payroll filings
  • IRS notices and correspondence

Before you hire

Ask this of anyone you are considering for the work — including someone who is not a LEO member:

  • Who prepares my return, and who reviews it before it is filed?
  • Are you reachable in July, or only during filing season?
  • Is this a flat fee or hourly, and what is included?

What's different in South Florida

Florida has no personal income tax, which makes the state-level questions more interesting rather than less. New residents need to establish domicile properly, and the state they left may take a close interest in whether they did. Businesses still owe Florida sales and use tax, and seasonal revenue — heavy from November through April, thin in August — makes quarterly estimates easy to get wrong in both directions.
