For high-income professional, physician, lawyer, dentist, or partners

Accounting & Tax for Doctors, Lawyers, Dentists, and Partners

High-income professional tax is K-1 income from multiple partnerships, equity comp with AMT exposure, multi-state filings as you practice across state lines, defined benefit plans, and estate planning. A generalist CPA optimizes maybe a third of what's available. We work the whole stack.

Sound familiar?

Where your current setup is falling short.

  • K-1s arrive after April 15 every year, so you've been extending and paying penalties for years
  • ISOs sitting unexercised because nobody's modeled the AMT impact across multiple years
  • You're a partner in three or more entities across multiple states with no coordinated tax strategy
  • Your CPA filed your return but didn't proactively model defined benefit / cash balance plans, RNOR (if applicable), backdoor Roth, or Augusta Rule
  • You've never had a documented owner comp / partner draw analysis
  • Your CPA goes dark from April 16 through October 15, but tax decisions don't pause

What we'd do for you

The plan, tailored to your situation.

Coordinate K-1s across all your entities

Basis tracking per partnership, phantom income management, quarterly estimates from K-1 projections, automatic extension every year, multi-state non-resident returns where required.

Multi-year ISO exercise planning to minimize AMT

We model the AMT impact of each potential exercise level across 3–5 years and identify the optimal annual exercise schedule. Same for RSU vesting and ESPP timing.

Model the retirement plan stack

We model Solo 401(k), cash balance, and defined benefit plan combinations for high-income solo practitioners, then coordinate with your TPA and actuary on design. That can mean $200K+/year of tax-deferred shelter where the right facts apply.

Apply every owner planning lever

Augusta Rule, accountable plan reimbursements, backdoor Roth, mega backdoor Roth, QBI optimization, and charitable giving via DAFs. We also identify gain/loss harvesting opportunities for your investment advisor to execute.

Year-round access

Your CPA picks up in July, not just April. Email response within one business day. No per-question fees, ever.

Fee-only, no kickbacks

We don't sell insurance, annuities, or investment products, and we take no commissions or referral fees. Our fees come from you and nowhere else. No conflicts.
