Hamilton is a professional tax firm for clients who want their returns done correctly.

We offer tax preparation, tax planning, and representation services for:

  • Individuals
  • Small Businesses
  • Nonprofits
  • Trusts and Estates

At Hamilton, you'll receive professional tax assistance at a fair price. Your tax return will be prepared by an experienced attorney, typically for half the cost of a CPA and less than you'd pay at a chain. What's more, we'll be here throughout the year to answer your questions and help with tax planning.

How do we do it? Simple. Low overhead lets us concentrate on professional, personalized service at a reasonable price. No wood paneled offices. No flashy website or costly TV ads. No $8 million paycheck for the CEO. Just old-fashioned hard work and dedication to our clients.

Other things we don't do:

  • We don't prepare tax returns "while you wait." Unless you're filing a 1040-EZ, that approach may sacrifice accuracy for speed. (And if you are filing a 1040-EZ, you probably don't need a paid preparer.) We don't cut corners—we pay attention to detail. We'll ask questions and spend ample time explaining how the tax rules apply to your situation.
  • We don't promise you a Really Big Refund. You should avoid any preparer who does, and if the reason isn't obvious, give us a call.
  • We don't claim to have the lowest fees. Our fees are reasonable, but you can always find someone cheaper if that's your primary goal.
  • We don't offer Refund Anticipation Loans or other "value added products" that are highly profitable for the preparer but almost always a bad deal for you (see sidebar).

With free electronic filing of federal and state returns and IRS direct deposit (or the new Western Union prepaid debit card), you can have your refund in as little as 10 days.
