Services
If you’re looking for a firm that will focus on your individual needs, and always treat you like a client who matters, look no further. Our firm is large enough to offer a full range of professional services, but small enough to give you the individual attention that you deserve.
We will thoroughly and conscientiously study your personal situation, and tailor our advice to your specific needs.
Financial Statements
Maintaining clear, accurate and timely financial statements is one of the most impactful investments you can make in the long-term success of your business. Well-prepared statements ensure hassle-free internal and external audits, help guide management decisions, and present the stability and growth potential of your business to prospective lenders, investors or buyers.
Preparing the primary components of a financial statement – mainly the balance sheet, income statement, cash flow statement and statement of shareholders’ equity – requires thorough record keeping and detailed analysis. Clear, easy-to-read presentation matters every bit as much as precision.
We will work closely with your key personnel to assemble all the data needed to develop your financial statements. We will then help you finalize the statements to ensure compliance with industry standards and so critical information can be found at a glance.
Notary Public
A notary public can help you to handle various business matters, including witnessing and authenticating document execution and signatures.
Many contracts and other business documents require notarization in order to take effect. If your company does not have an in-house notary public, we can provide one whenever needed. Even when notarization is not legally required, having a notary public witness and authenticate the execution of an agreement ensures that your company’s interests will be well protected if the terms of the agreement are ever disputed.
We can also provide useful services for your staff, including authenticating absentee ballots and legal documents. Offering this service to your personnel can reduce lost worker-hours, as employees will not need to find a notary public at a bank or other institution.
Medical Documents Notarization
We specialize in notarizing essential medical documents, including healthcare directives, medical powers of attorney, and patient consent forms. Our services are designed to ensure that all your medical-related paperwork is properly authenticated and legally binding, providing you with peace of mind during critical times.
Loan Signing Services
Our loan signing services offer professional support for real estate transactions, mortgage documents, and other loan-related paperwork. We work closely with clients to ensure all documents are signed, notarized, and processed correctly, reducing the risk of errors and ensuring a smooth closing experience.
