Small Business Accountant in Fort Worth, TX
Fort Worth added more than 32,000 residents in a single year, making it the fastest-growing city in the Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex. That growth is fueling new LLCs, S-Corps, and sole proprietorships across every corridor, from the restaurants and retail shops around Sundance Square to the contractors and professional services clustered along the Near Southside. With major employers like Lockheed Martin, American Airlines, and Cook Children’s Health Care System anchoring the local economy, Fort Worth’s small business owners serve a customer base with a median household income near $88,000, and they need year-round accounting support that keeps pace with that momentum.

Small Business Accountant Questions from Fort Worth Clients
What does a small business accountant do?
A small business accountant handles your bookkeeping, prepares and files your federal and state tax returns, processes payroll, manages sales tax compliance, and advises you on entity structure and deductions. For Fort Worth businesses, this also includes filing the Texas franchise tax each year and ensuring your LLC or S-Corp stays in compliance with the Texas Secretary of State.
How much do small business accounting services cost in Fort Worth?
At AG Freideman, sole proprietor tax returns (Schedule C) run $750 to $1,200. S-Corp and partnership returns cost $1,000 to $2,000. Monthly bookkeeping with payroll is $300 to $600 per month. These are flat-fee ranges based on complexity, not hourly billing that runs up without warning.
Do I need to file Texas franchise tax for my Fort Worth business?
Yes. Every Texas LLC, S-Corp, and partnership must file a franchise tax report and Public Information Report with the Texas Comptroller by May 15 each year. Even if your business owes zero tax (the no-tax-due threshold for 2026 applies to entities under $2.47 million in total revenue), you are still required to file. We handle this for $250 to $500.
Should my Fort Worth business elect S-Corp status?
An S-Corp election can reduce self-employment taxes when your business consistently earns more than what you would pay yourself as a reasonable salary. For many Fort Worth service businesses, contractors, and consultants earning above $80,000 to $100,000 in net income, the savings are significant. We offer a tax planning session starting at $197 to run the numbers for your specific situation before you make the election.
Can I work with AG Freideman if I am located in Fort Worth, not Dallas?
Absolutely. We serve Fort Worth clients through secure virtual meetings, cloud-based document sharing, and phone or video consultations. You get the same personal attention from Al Freideman that our Dallas clients receive, without driving to Preston Road. Many of our Fort Worth clients have never visited our physical office and have worked with us for years.
What records should I bring to my first meeting?
Gather your prior-year tax returns, profit and loss statements (or bank and credit card statements if you do not have formal books), payroll records, any IRS or state notices, and your Texas franchise tax filings. If you are forming a new LLC, just bring your desired business name and the members’ information. We will walk you through everything else during your free consultation.
