Let me guess: - your current accountants are always behind on work & unorganized - their communication is terrible - they offer nearly no proactive tax or investment advice I run a CPA-led accounting firm with a dedicated team, serving business owners nationwide who want clean books, timely filings, and proactive guidance, not one-off fixes or bargain work. You can see our Google reviews by searching "Derks Financial, Tax & Accounting" We primarily work with: - Established U.S. businesses (Sch C biz, LLCs, & S-Corps) - Owners who want monthly accounting + tax support - Businesses with ongoing activity, payroll, and real complexity - Owners who value consistency and long-term relationships ***If you’re just getting started, price shopping, or looking for a one-time answer, we’re likely not the right fit Our firm provides: - Monthly bookkeeping and financial close (QuickBooks Online) - Business & individual tax preparation (1040, 1065, 1120S) - Payroll coordination and compliance - Ongoing CPA advisory and tax planning - Cleanup and transition from prior accountants - IRS and state notice support - Work is handled by our internal team, not outsourced freelancers. I help business owners with: - QuickBooks cleanup, catch-up, and monthly bookkeeping - Business and individual tax preparation (1040, 1065, 1120S) - Ongoing CPA advisory for growing companies - Payroll, compliance, and IRS/state notices - Structuring and tax planning as your business grows How to get started - We start with a short consultation to confirm fit, review your current situation, and outline next steps. If it makes sense, we move into a monthly engagement. If not, you’ll still leave with clarity. If you’re not sure where things stand, start with a short paid consultation. I’ll review your situation, identify issues, and give you a clear path forward, whether we work together long-term or not. **Ryan is not a CPA. There are 2 CPAs part of his team.

I have built my business helping others build theirs! Financial success requires analysis, experience, and expertise. I provide the skills required to manage the most intimidating situations. For over 30 years I have been competing with the Internal Revenue Service. Yes, I consider every client's financial record a competition to beat the IRS at their own game using their own rules. How? Research, experience and the ability to strategize any situation. I know where to look and how to find the answers that I am looking for. The secret? I enjoy what I do! While other kids were playing sports in school, I was competing in the Future Problem Solvers of America competitions. My daily reading includes financial statistics, IRS newsletters and releases and the most recent financial analysis reports. I just love finding innovative solutions to problems. This provides me with the ability to strategize most financial situations for a successful outcome. If you are looking for the cheapest answer, keep looking. I guarantee my work is the best quality and work diligently to ensure that you are provided with the best possible strategy for your given situation. Remember this is a competition and I hate to lose!!!
