ABOUT US

How It All Started

After a fortuitous meeting at a local continuing education seminar, three accountants decided to come together and form a tax and advisory service to meet the needs of our local community, and out-of-state clients. In 2019 the firm opened an office in Austin, TX to help our established and new clients in that locality. With more than twenty-five years of combined experience in accounting, attestation, and tax services, the firm continues to pride itself in leading the way to serve individuals and businesses. Amani Desravines-Rodriguez, LLC serves individuals, non-profit entities, nurserymen and farmers, manufacturing companies, construction contractors, physician groups, and other small to large sized businesses with an enthusiastic pride in service and emphasis on relationships. Providing services to clients in a diverse range of industries, each with their own particular situations and needs is a challenge indeed. Recognizing this we approach each client with unique perspective and understanding. Our experienced staff can help you face your industry’s challenges and meet your unique goals.

Using a Certified Public Accountant (CPA) offers several advantages. Let’s delve into the benefits:

  1. Tax Planning and Savings:
    • Beyond merely filing your tax return, a CPA can proactively help you save money on taxes. They identify planning opportunities and ensure you don’t miss any deductions or credits.
    • Whether it’s optimizing your personal taxes or strategizing for your business, a CPA’s expertise can lead to significant tax savings.
  2. Business Setup and Financial Statements:
    • If you’re starting a business or have a side hustle, a CPA can guide you through the setup process. They’ll help you understand legal requirements, structure, and financial implications.
    • Additionally, CPAs assist with financial statements, which are crucial for obtaining mortgages or other financing.
  3. Retirement Account Distribution Planning:
    • CPAs can help you plan how to distribute funds from retirement accounts efficiently. This ensures tax efficiency and aligns with your retirement goals.
  4. Objective, Strategic Advice:
    • CPAs are among the most trusted professionals. They provide independent and objective advice, protecting your interests and giving you peace of mind.
    • Their expertise extends beyond tax planning to various financial aspects of your life.
  5. Highly Qualified Professionals:

  • CPAs have full representation rights before the IRS, allowing them to represent you during audits or other tax-related issues.

In summary, working with a CPA goes beyond tax season. They offer personalized financial guidance, help you achieve your life goals, and ensure sound financial decisions.
