  A Short History:

 
  What began in 1979 as an idea for a busy mother to stay home with her growing family, has become one of Oak Harbor's longest running and most successful small businesses. Berg Tax and Financial Services began at Bob and Harriet's dining room table. A dozen years later, the business expanded into a suite of offices at the Cascade Place Office Building. In 1993, Harriet earned the title of Enrolled Agent, a status that allows her to represent clients before the IRS. In 2002 Berg Tax and Financial Services evolved into Berg & Associates Tax and Financial Services when Dale Williams became owner of the firm.

As a tax and accounting office providing a full range of services, Berg & Associates Tax and Financial Services can help meet the needs of the individual taxpayer as well as the established small business or corporation. A staff of three accountants/tax professionals share a combined experience of more than 60 years. Harriet and Jeff are also securities licensed with Terra Securities Corporation to help you grow what you have worked so hard to earn.

One of the trademarks of Berg & Associates Tax and Financial Services is our systematic and personalized client interview which focuses on each client's unique needs. An interview where first we listen to our client's needs and concerns; secondly, we ask questions designed to save you money, and insure compliance with the IRS. This personalized inverview allows us to probe beyond final figures into the evolving process of tax planning. Decreasing our client's tax liability within legal boundaries is a primary goal. Berg & Associates Tax and Financial Services is committed to providing flexible tax preparation and planning.

In our work with businesses, one of Harriet's specialties is counseling. Forethought is given to determining the best tax structure for the client's business needs. Time spent explaining the pros and cons of other business considerations is a critical part of each interview. Dale supplements Harriet's organizational, tax expertise and consulting skills, and Jeff and Sharon's tax skills and experience, by applying skills learned in over 30 years of investment and Corporate forward planning expertise. We build on what your business has done in the past, and is doing now, to develop planning tools to guide your future.

We recognize the position of trust our clients give us and look forward to serving them over the long term as a trusted business advisor. Referrals are always welcome and appreciated; recognizing that the greatest compliment our clients can give us is their referral of others.
