OUR COMPANY PHILOSOPHY
Though we are a large local firm, we thrive on developing personal, long-term relationships with every client. That means friendly, one-on-one service that you might expect to find at a much smaller firm. We prefer working with our clients on an ongoing basis, not just during tax-filing season or for special projects. That’s because we can do our best job by getting to know our clients and the intricacies of their individual businesses.
At Rushton & Company, we do more than crunch numbers and process reports. Our firm provides real-world advice and direction to help companies build and grow. And our advice is objective – we don’t have ties to any financial products such as insurance or mutual funds – so what we provide is in the client’s best interest as we help prepare and plan for the future.
Ethics and strong moral character are traits we seek in the people we hire as well as the people with whom we do business. We believe in doing the best job possible to keep expenses and taxes low for our clients with the understanding that all of our financial practices and advice be fair, moral and within the letter of the law.
Whether a business or an individual, finances understandably are a private matter to our clients. We respect this right to privacy and adhere to a philosophy of strict confidentiality in every business relationship.
We are pro-active in staying atop ever-changing state and federal tax issues to ensure that our clients realize the full benefit of any exemptions or credits provided under law.
By learning the complexities behind each of our clients’ businesses, we have built expertise in a number of areas such as medical and manufacturing. Doing so enables us to become true strategic partners with our clients.
We’re not just a tax preparer. We are a one-source provider for the full realm of financial and accounting services. We believe in forging strong team partnerships with our clients’ other financial partners, such as attorneys and bankers, so that we can ensure a consistent and coordinated financial program.
We also believe in giving back to the community in which we live and work, a philosophy that is reflected throughout our management and employees. Our professionals have served in a number of key civic roles throughout the region, including the Greater Hall Chamber of Commerce, Gainesville Jaycees and Kiwanis.
