About Tommy Plass

I am a CPA that specializes in tax preparation and planning for closely-held businesses and their owners. I have a deep knowledge of the tax matters that ultimately affect these owners and entrepreneurs. Combined with my wide and general understanding of small business issues that I picked up in my previous experiences as a manager in two small businesses, I use this tax knowledge to help business owners meld their business and financial affairs into a cohesive whole.I enjoy performing this type of planning with individuals who have a fairly large percentage of their net worths tied up in one or two family businesses, but who are currently or are looking to invest in a broader range of partnerships and corporations.It is important to me that these owners see each financial move as a small piece of a larger puzzle that can be optimized. Ultimately, my job is to ensure that this \"puzzle\" stays intact while minimizing overall tax paid.Specialties: Tax research; tax planning for closely-held businesses and their owners; automating tax prep tasks and problems
