Our services provide accuracy checks, reconciliations, and oversight -- strengthening your financial records without replacing your accountant or bookkeeper.

With over 45 years of bookkeeping experience, we specialize in independent reviews of financial records for small businesses and self-employed individuals.

By aligning ourselves with specific bookkeeping tasks, we maintain a sharp focus that goes beyond the scope of a traditional full-service bookkeeper. Our role is to provide independent reviews and ensure proper separation of duties, giving your business an added layer of checks and balances. Because we work privately outside of your perimeter, there's no need for additional workspace or disruption to your daily operations -- just reliable oversight you can trust.

Our Services

Each of our services is designed to catch errors, prevent fraud, and give you confidence in your financial records. We are the "second set of eyes" for small businesses that either don't have an accountant or the ability to set up a separation of duties.
We provide flexible support with services performed as one-time, monthly, quarterly, or yearly depending on business needs.

Reconciliations for Bank or Credit Card Accounts

Ensure all transactions are properly recorded and matched to the appropriate statements.
Detect missing and incorrect entries, and unauthorized transactions.

Income Tax Return Analysis

Review past tax returns for accuracy and completeness.
Identify missed deductions or discrepancies between bookkeeping records and tax filings.

Month-End Reports Check

Confirm balances align with supporting documentations.
Review the reports for misplaced entries.

Oversight Adjustment Account

Establish an Adjustment Account for corrections in order to validate the entries before your bookkeeper makes the final adjustments. Ensuring issues are identified and refined in advance.

Outsourcing Services

We provide outsourcing services on a monthly basis for businesses wanting to separate a section of their bookkeeping duties but don't have the staff to permit that separation. This ensures the checks and balances necessary for the security of a business.
