Our firm is structured to personally serve smaller and medium-sized clients, which often have as great a need for management consulting and tax services as they do for accounting and auditing services. YS deals almost exclusively with closely held businesses and family businesses, primarily with consulting, non-profits, technology, manufacturing, wholesale, distribution, franchise, service, real estate, construction sectors and employee benefit plans.
The clients we serve are primarily in the New England area. Our employees, besides being members of the Massachusetts Society of CPA's and the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants, also have access to other research and resources as necessary to service you. This enables us to have access to additional support related to keeping current with all accounting requirements.
As many companies deal with increasing costs of overhead expenses, YS will provide you with efficient services that are very cost effective. Out team will provide consistent performance and meet your deadlines. To be effective, we must be responsive to your needs; therefore, everyone in the firm is accessible to meet your demands.
Because of our size and our structure, our goal is to have the client-accounting relationship revolve around our partners. The partners are accessible, and clients can afford to speak with them. YS's goal is to become an extension of our clients’ management team. This involvement assures that we fully understand your business and your objectives and, consequently, are better able to counsel you.
Each client is assigned two or three professionals. This provides all of our clients the ability to reach someone at any time that understands their needs and can answer any questions. This team approach has been one of the firm's keys to success. This philosophy separates us from most other CPA firms, big and small.
