Deep Expertise. Our partners and team members are nonprofit leaders and reporting and tax experts at the national and local level. Our active roles with the AICPA, IRS, WSCPA, Washington Nonprofits, and Washington Secretary of State, give you immediate access to these resources and timely alerts to developments that may impact your operations.
Exceptional Efficiency. At Jacobson Jarvis, we continue to focus on improving the client experience to minimize disruption and improve communication.
