Jacobson Tax

About

A father-and-son firm that thinks in generations.

We advise on the decisions that reach beyond a single tax season, and we see each year's return through to completion.

Our approach

Jacobson Tax was built around the idea that taxes should not be a purely retrospective activity. Too often, a return is prepared accurately and on time, but by the time it arrives, the decisions that shaped it have already been made.

Both Rich and Remy come from a financial planning background, and they bring that forward-looking perspective to tax work: understanding where a client is headed, and advising on the decisions ahead while there is still time to shape them.
