Behind on your books? No judgment.

We’ll walk you through it, one step at a time, and get your books current and compliant.

You’re not alone

Most new clients come to us behind

Maybe a bookkeeper quit, the business grew faster than expected, or tax season snuck up on you. Whatever the reason, being behind on your books is common, and it can be fixed.

We go slowly at first. We gather what you have, bank statements, receipts, old files, and rebuild your books month by month until everything is accurate and up to date.

When we’re done, you’ll have clean records, clear reports, and the peace of mind of knowing you’re compliant.

FAQ

Common questions

How far behind can I be? Can you still help?

Yes. We’ve helped businesses that were a few months behind and businesses that were years behind. We start with what you have and rebuild from there.

What do I need to get started?

Your bank and credit card statements are the most important. Receipts, invoices, payroll reports and any old bookkeeping files help too. If you’re missing some, we’ll help you request copies.

Will I get in trouble with the IRS for being behind?

Getting your books current is the best first step to fixing any filing problems. Once your books are caught up, Doug Campos, our Enrolled Agent, can help you file missing returns and talk with the IRS if needed.
