<\/ins>Do you only service large clients?<\/strong>
\nOf course not. Our Accounting Services Group, referred to as “Debbie’s Desk,” specializes in supporting small , closely-held business. Our typical clients are sole proprietors or corporations\/partnerships with less than 5 shareholders\/partners.<\/p>\n

Are your fees reasonable?
\n<\/strong>DLA provides high-value talent at local community rates. Tax preparation varies greatly, but we are competitive with CPA firms and tax preparation franchises alike. Our hourly accounting fees are some of the most aggressive in the area with rates as low as $50 an hour. However, many clients prefer to work with us to create a budgeted weekly, monthly or quarterly amount that creates value for both customer and firm.<\/p>\n

Lots of firms claim to provide CFO services, what makes you different?
\n<\/strong>The principals of DLA have been providing these services since 1996. They are seasoned CFO\u2019s who have led organizations through turnaround, private equity offerings, merger and acquisition, and even bankruptcy. As a firm we are unique because the CFO services that we provide bring not only credentials to the table \u2013 CPA, MST, JD, Series 7 & 66 Securities Licensing, Insurance Producer Licensing \u2013 but also experience in launching, growing, and leading clients through chaos, growth, and maintenance periods. Many clients have chosen to outsource the function long term to us by using the firm as the Finance Lead of their management team at considerable cost savings vs hiring a full time person.<\/p>\n

Will I be \u201cnickel & dimed?\u201d<\/strong>
\nPlease see our section on Our Typical Fees. Our focus is to \u201cvalue bill.\u201d This means that we view an invoice as a marketing piece \u2013 one that surprises a customer, or one that is much larger than expected, is not a good marketing piece. We prefer budgeted fixed fee prices for services that are negotiated to be fair to all involved.<\/p>\n

When will I outgrow your firm?<\/strong>
\nYou shouldn\u2019t. Our firm has been designed to support clients from \u201cwomb to tomb.\u201d We value price so that our clients can use us to business plan and evaluate business deals; use us to handle accounting and tax services for the growing business, and then expand the support as formal Financial Statements, CFO guidance, Recruiting and Technology services are needed. The value to our clients is that they don\u2019t live through bad support to then move on only to have to educate another firm on their business.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
