Personal Tax Services

Peace of Mind…

Having served the Clearwater, Tampa Bay, Largo and St. Petersburg area for many years, Pinellas County C.P.A. firm FMA, C.P.A., strives to meet each client’s specific personal tax planning needs to support their goals in an ever-changing financial and regulatory environment.

Do You Need a CPA?

You’re an expert in what you do for a living, and we’re experts in what we do. You don’t have to rely on second-hand advice or scour the internet for generic tax tips, when you have a professional giving you personalized guidance.

Cutting corners to save money upfront can cost you in the long run, through higher taxes, missed opportunities, and, possibly, penalties or an audit. Some CPAs or seasonal income tax companies offer cut-rate services to compete on price. By trusting a firm that’s available to answer your questions all year round, and looks at your financial situation holistically, you can expect better results. 

FMA CPA focuses on long-term value, not just filling out someone’s taxes.
