“Jack, over the many years I have practiced, I likely have now been involved with thousands and thousands of qualified plans and their plan sponsors, accountants, financial advisors and whom ever else was involved. Every so often, however, I find a “family accountant” whose involvement with his client is above and beyond calculations. He (or she) was the one the client turned to at every junction, whether to lease or buy, rent of purchase, and whether to engage in a long-term qualified plan. Many such involvements were separate from billing and simply demonstrated the extent of “family” involvement by the accountant.
You, my friend, are such a person, in that you demonstrate a substantial interest in the financial welfare of your client in that you go “above and far beyond” your contractual obligations and as such, you are a “mensch” (a person of integrity and honor). Therefore, I salute you for who and what you are and thank you for my inclusion in your activity.”
Frequently Asked Questions
To choose the right bookkeeping software, consider factors like your industry, specific needs, and budget. Industry-specific packages exist, though they may come at a higher cost. Alternatively, general software like Quickbooks and Xero offer versatility. Additionally, various payroll software options are available. Jack is here to guide you in selecting the best fit for your unique requirements.
Typically, individuals and most entities are not subject to Florida State Income Tax. However, it’s important to note that C corporations are an exception to this general rule.
Choosing between an LLC and an S Corp depends on various factors, including your business structure, tax preferences, and operational needs. There are advantages and disadvantages to both entities, and Jack can provide personalized guidance to help you make the right decision.

As part of our tax preparation assistance, I typically schedule meetings with clients towards the end of the year. During these sessions, we thoroughly review your records and bookkeeping entries. This proactive approach allows us to identify potential areas for improvement before year-end, helping you optimize your tax situation and potentially save on taxes.
The frequency of our meetings is tailored to the unique needs of your business, considering factors such as size and complexity. Typically, small businesses opt for annual meetings, while others, particularly those with great complexity, may prefer quarterly or monthly sessions. However, Jack is always available to provide guidance and support, even outside of your regular meeting schedule. Feel free to reach out to him for advice whenever you need assistance.
