What Our CPA Dallas TX Services Include
Who We Help
Our Dallas CPA services are designed for busy individuals across the DFW metroplex who want their taxes done right the first time. We work with families dealing with rental properties, stock options, multiple income sources, or life changes like divorce or retirement. If you’ve been using software but want the peace of mind that comes with professional oversight, or if your tax situation has gotten too complex for DIY solutions, we’re here to help. Many of our individual clients have been with us for years because they appreciate having a real person to call with questions—not a 1-800 number.
We also serve small business owners throughout Texas who need more than just tax preparation. Our typical business clients include local Dallas restaurants, Plano consultants, Richardson retail shops, and freelancers anywhere in the state who’ve outgrown basic accounting software. Whether you’re a single-member LLC trying to figure out quarterly taxes or an S-corp with employees who needs payroll and bookkeeping, we handle the financial details so you can focus on growing your business. Since Texas has no state income tax but does require franchise tax filings and sales tax compliance, we make sure you stay current with all state obligations.
Our CPA Services Process
Why Choose AG Freideman for CPA Services in Dallas, Texas?
With 30+ years serving the Dallas-Fort Worth area, Al Freideman has seen every tax situation and business challenge you can imagine. Our Preston Road location makes us convenient for North Dallas clients, but we also work virtually with businesses across Texas and beyond. We’ve earned 52 five-star reviews because we explain things in plain English and respond to calls and emails promptly—usually within 24 hours during busy season.
Unlike large firms where you’re shuffled between junior staff, you work directly with an experienced CPA who remembers your situation from year to year. We’re also unlike the seasonal tax shops that disappear after April 15th. We’re here year-round because good accounting isn’t just about tax season—it’s about helping you make smart financial decisions every month of the year.
Our Dallas CPA practice focuses on building long-term relationships rather than churning through as many clients as possible. We take time to understand your goals and explain our recommendations clearly. Many clients tell us they finally feel confident about their taxes and business finances after years of uncertainty with other preparers or software.
Since Texas businesses don’t deal with state income tax complications, we can focus on federal compliance and the specific requirements Texas does have—like franchise tax for most entities and proper sales tax handling. This local knowledge, combined with our experience serving DFW businesses, means we catch issues and opportunities that out-of-state firms often miss.
Common CPA Services Questions
How much do CPA services cost in Dallas?
Individual tax returns start at $350 for straightforward situations, with business returns typically ranging from $750 to $2,500 depending on complexity. Monthly bookkeeping for small businesses runs $200-600 per month based on transaction volume. We provide upfront quotes so there are no surprises, and we believe professional CPA services pay for themselves through proper deductions and avoiding costly mistakes.
Do I need a CPA if I own an LLC in Texas?
Most LLC owners benefit significantly from professional tax help because LLC taxation can be complex. Even single-member LLCs need to file Schedule C and handle quarterly estimated taxes correctly. Multi-member LLCs require partnership returns (Form 1065) that are notoriously tricky. Plus, Texas LLCs may owe franchise tax depending on revenue levels, and we ensure you’re compliant with all state requirements.
Can you help with IRS audit representation in Dallas?
Yes, as an enrolled CPA, Al can represent you before the IRS at all levels. We handle correspondence audits, office audits, and appeals. Most audits we see result from missing documentation or mathematical errors, both of which are much less likely when you work with a professional. Our audit representation typically costs $200-300 per hour, but many audits are resolved with just a few hours of work.
What’s the difference between a CPA and other tax preparers?
CPAs complete extensive education, pass a rigorous four-part exam, and maintain continuing education requirements. We can represent you before the IRS, provide audited financial statements, and handle complex business consulting. Tax preparers without CPA credentials are limited in what services they can provide and cannot represent you in most IRS situations. The education and ethical standards required for CPA licensure mean you’re getting professional-level expertise.
Do you work with businesses outside of Dallas?
Absolutely. While our office is located in North Dallas, we serve clients throughout Texas and even have business clients in other states. Our virtual systems allow us to work efficiently with businesses anywhere, though we do require Texas businesses to comply with specific state regulations like franchise tax filings and sales tax registration when applicable.
How far in advance should I start working with a CPA?
For tax preparation, we prefer to receive documents by early March to ensure adequate time for thorough review, but we accept clients through the filing deadline. For businesses, the sooner the better—proper bookkeeping and tax planning throughout the year saves significantly more money than scrambling at year-end. New businesses should consult with us before choosing entity structure, as this decision affects taxes for years to come.
What makes AG Freideman different from H&R Block or TurboTax?
The biggest difference is continuity and expertise. Seasonal tax shops rotate staff constantly, so you never know who’s preparing your return or their experience level. Software can’t catch planning opportunities or ask the right questions about your specific situation. With 30+ years of experience, Al knows what to look for and can explain strategies software and seasonal preparers miss. Plus, we’re here year-round when questions arise.
Pricing & Getting Started
We believe in transparent pricing without hidden fees or surprise charges. Individual tax returns start at $350, business returns range from $750-2,500, and ongoing bookkeeping runs $200-600 monthly depending on your business size. We provide detailed quotes upfront so you know exactly what to expect. Most clients find that professional CPA services pay for themselves through proper planning and deductions they would have missed otherwise. To get started, simply schedule a consultation where we’ll discuss your needs and provide a clear quote for services.
