Santa Ynez Valley Tax Professionals

Three of the managers on staff run bookkeeping, and two Enrolled Agents, Carlos Plascencia and Tamer Tabakha, carry the title of Resolutions Manager — the shape of a practice built as much around ongoing books and IRS problems as around filing season. Kayvon Salafian is president and CEO, and Bilal Javed manages tax. Clients range from individuals to small and medium-sized businesses, with agriculture, professional services, finance and nonprofit organizations among the industries served. For businesses the work extends to payroll, part-time CFO support, business valuation, succession planning and forensic accounting, and audits, reviews and compilations are offered at three levels of assurance. New work begins with a call or meeting, followed by an organizer and documents submitted online. The firm puts its own record at more than 40 years, 1,400 clients and 25,000 returns filed, and it supports local groups including Solvang Theaterfest and the Santa Ynez Valley Chorale.
