When Legal Decisions Have Financial Consequences
The Advantage of an Attorney Who Is Also a CPA
Legal issues rarely exist in isolation.
A business transaction may create tax consequences. An estate plan may affect property ownership. A Medicaid strategy may involve financial assets, real estate, and tax considerations. A conservatorship may require both legal authority and careful financial management.
Attorney Zachary Lauffer, Esq., CPA, brings both perspectives to the table.
That means looking beyond the document or transaction immediately in front of us to understand how one decision may affect the rest of your financial and legal picture.
One advisor. Two professional perspectives. A more complete approach.

What Our Clients Say
Zach took care of everything for my mother when we needed to quickly get her setup with a Power of Attorney and Will.
He went out of his way to make sure all of her questions were answered and walked her through the entire process.
When we got a notice that we were being audited, we didn't know where to begin. We were referred to Zach, who took care of the entire process. Having him be able to work with the state on our behalf put our minds at ease, and made an overwhelming process seamless.
When I was preparing to take my first physician job, a colleague suggested I consult with Zach for his expertise in contract review and negotiation support. Thanks to his assistance, I was able to secure an excellent contract immediately upon completing my residency.
