Laura C.

CPA / Attorney

I am a CPA and licensed attorney with over 20 years of experience in tax, accounting, and finance, working with businesses and individuals across a wide range of industries and jurisdictions. I currently operate a solo practice providing business and individual tax services, accounting support, and advisory services. My work includes multistate and cross-border tax considerations, tax compliance, and ongoing consultation on complex tax issues affecting growing businesses. In my practice, I assist clients with tax planning and compliance, preparation of financial statements, and business and personal tax filings. I regularly support clients navigating multi-jurisdictional matters, including state and local tax exposure, nexus considerations, and international reporting or withholding issues. Previously, I served as a Tax Manager for a large publicly held electronics distributor, where I was responsible for the income tax footnote in the company’s SEC filings and ensuring compliance with FAS 109 / ASC 740. This role required coordination across multiple entities, jurisdictions, and reporting frameworks. Earlier in my career, I worked in public accounting, where I gained extensive experience in financial statement preparation and the preparation and review of corporate and individual tax returns. My background allows me to combine technical tax knowledge with practical business judgment, making me well-suited to support companies that have outgrown basic compliance and need more experienced tax oversight.
