A Shrewsbury CPA who keeps things simple

Clear help for taxes, bookkeeping, and the questions that pop up mid-year

Shrewsbury clients often come to us because they want a local relationship—someone they can reach—without the complexity of a large firm. For business owners, Bookkeeping & Payroll Support keeps records current and reduces the risk of missed steps and deadlines. Business Tax Preparation & Planning brings together accurate filing and proactive planning so you’re not surprised at year-end. Individuals and families get careful preparation and plain-language guidance through Individual Tax Preparation & Planning, plus year-round Personal Tax Support when life changes create new questions.

Business and personal support that works together

One relationship for the full financial picture

If you run a business in Shrewsbury, it’s common for business and personal finances to overlap—pass-through income, estimated taxes, major purchases, and planning decisions all connect. Business Services can provide an Outsourced Accounting Department that gives you a consistent monthly rhythm and clearer reporting, so decisions feel easier. If cash is tight in certain seasons or you’re unsure why money isn’t building in the bank, Cash Flow & Profitability Support helps you spot patterns and make practical improvements.


For bigger decisions—hiring, pricing, expansion, or major investments—Business Advisory & Part-Time CFO support gives you a steady sounding board without adding a full-time executive. And if something stressful happens, like an IRS notice, Tax Relief & IRS Help can bring the situation back under control, with Protection Plus Audit Defense available for added peace of mind when filing (program terms apply). To get started, Contact Us.

FAQs

Working with a Shrewsbury, MA CPA

  • I’m in Shrewsbury—do you work with nearby towns too?

    Yes. We serve Shrewsbury clients along with Worcester and other Central Massachusetts communities. Some clients also compare options in nearby areas like Westborough and Marlborough, and choose us for the personal, responsive relationship. We make it easy to work together by phone and email, with in-person meetings by appointment. To start the conversation, Contact Us.

  • Can you handle both my small business bookkeeping and taxes?

    Yes. Many owners combine Bookkeeping & Payroll Support with Business Tax Preparation & Planning so records and filings stay aligned. This reduces last-minute scrambles and helps planning decisions happen earlier. It also means you’re not juggling multiple providers. We tailor the scope to your business and comfort level.

  • What if my books are behind or messy?

    That’s common, especially during busy seasons. We can help clean things up, establish a repeatable monthly process, and make reporting reliable again through an Outsourced Accounting Department or monthly bookkeeping support. The approach is paced to reduce disruption and make progress quickly. Once things are clean, staying current becomes much easier.

  • Do you help with IRS notices, audits, or back taxes?

    Yes. Tax Relief & IRS Help can help you understand what the IRS is asking for and respond correctly and on time. If you want added peace of mind at filing time, Protection Plus Audit Defense may provide covered assistance for notices and audits for a set period (program terms apply). The key is not waiting—deadlines matter. We’ll guide you through next steps clearly.

  • How do I get started from Shrewsbury?

    Start with a free 15-minute consultation so we can understand what you need and recommend the right path. If you’re a business owner, a quick overview of your bookkeeping, payroll setup, and last year’s return is helpful, but not required to begin. If you’re an individual, last year’s return and a summary of what changed this year is a great start. From there, you’ll get a clear scope and a simple process you can follow.
