We provide accounting services for small to medium-size businesses and individuals. Our business philosophy is that our clients require timely, pro-active, partner-level professional services even more than large organizations do.

At John A. Kennedy, Jr., CPA, LLC, you deal directly with an experienced principal of the firm. As financial advisors, our responsibilities go beyond financial reporting. We help clients interpret accounting information and make sound business decisions.

In order to minimize tax liabilities and eliminate year-end surprises, our tax services begin before year-end. We plan for taxes, not just react to them.

Accordingly, we feel that the year-end financial statement does not signal the end of our engagement. Rather, it serves as the beginning of analysis and planning for the coming year.

When a client needs help in retirement, investment, or legal planning, we do not simply point to the appropriate professionals. We coordinate the efforts of a team of professionals to ensure that our client's objectives are efficiently achieved.
