Been working with Chris at Midwest CPA for a few months now. Whenever we have a question Chris is quick to respond. We find him to be very meticulous and efficient in all aspects of our business. Our only regret is that we didn't find him sooner.

Chris is one of the best accountants and it’s not even close. I use him personally and for my business. He is one of the most responsive service providers I’ve ever worked with. My former CPA was great but wasn’t equip to help me as a business owner since the former CPA was focused on personal taxes. Chris has been a truly invaluable partner / collaborator on numerous M&A deals in the small to medium sized business space, providing financial due diligence to various clients that I’ve worked with ranging from a buyer of a demolition company to a buyer of a niche online goods business. LOI If you’re looking for a rock solid CPA or someone that is really good at M&A financial due diligence, look no further than Chris’ firm.

Frequently Asked Questions

Every small business owner or real estate investor can benefit from having a dedicated expert working for them to save on taxes and optimize their accounting processes.

However the majority of our clients find it makes the most sense to hire our firm for monthly bookkeeping after surpassing $250k/year in revenue.

If your business has not reached that level yet you can still benefit from having Midwest CPA setup your accounting processes so that you can efficiently run them on your own.

Further, engaging us for tax planning and tax preparation can provide you with a significant return on investment at any size. If we don’t feel like we will earn our fees we will happily refer you to a lower cost provider better suited to your needs.

Most firms are generalist firms working with many different types of clients. This leads to them lacking the knowledge and understanding specific people looking buying and grow small businesses.

At Midwest CPA, all of our clients are all business buyers and owners. This allows us to communicate with our clients on a different level because we have seen the struggles you face before and understand how to create practical solutions specifically for you.

We also have gained specialized knowledge of the tax code in the industries we work in. This allows us to provide our clients with tax planning strategies that they will not receive from a generalist.

It depends on the size and complexity of your company as well as the types of services you are looking for help with. 

We currently have clients paying anywhere from $700-5,000/month.

We work with all of our clients throughout the year so that we can be strategic and proactive around taxes.

This is a common reason we see clients leaving other firms to join Midwest CPA. They feel it is impossible to get a response from their CPA in a timely manner especially during tax time.

We pride ourselves on providing our clients with outstanding service and for that reason we make a point to respond to all of our clients within 24 business hours. Even if we can’t fully answer your question right away we will be in constant contact with you at every step in the process.
