Proactive, Strategic Tax Advisory from a Trusted Local Firm
At Molen & Associates, we believe your relationship with a tax professional shouldn’t begin and end in tax season. Traditional tax preparation is reactive—recording history after it happens. Our Tax Advisory service is proactive. We partner with you year-round to analyze your complete financial picture, helping you make informed decisions today that will minimize your liability and fuel your growth tomorrow.
Whether you are a business owner scaling operations or an individual building a legacy, we look beyond the forms. We don’t just tell you what to pay; we explain why and show you how to pay less legally. You get a dedicated strategic partner who understands your long-term goals and helps you navigate the complex financial landscape with confidence. That’s the Molen way.
How We Can Help You
Planning is the key to successfully and legally reducing your tax liability. We go beyond tax compliance and proactively recommend tax saving strategies to maximize your after-tax income.
We make it a priority to enhance our mastery of the current tax law, complex tax code, and new tax regulations by attending frequent tax seminars.
Businesses and individuals pay the lowest amount of taxes allowable by law because we continually look for ways to minimize your taxes throughout the year, not just at the end of the year.
Benefits of Tax Planning
Strategic tax planning helps you preserve your assets by managing your tax obligations effectively. By deferring income and making informed financial decisions, you can maintain greater liquidity today while ensuring long-term stability. Our advisory services focus on these key areas to optimize your financial outcomes:
- Income: Keep more of what you earn.
- Estate: Protect your family’s legacy.
- Gifts: Increase your giving potential.
- Investments: Grow wealth at a faster pace.

A Holistic View of Your Wealth
We don’t view taxes in a vacuum. We analyze how your tax liability interacts with your business operations, investment portfolio, and retirement goals. This comprehensive approach ensures every financial lever is pulled to support your long-term success, rather than just solving for a single year’s return.
Real-Time Guidance for Real-Life Decisions
Business opportunities and life changes don’t wait for tax season. Neither do we. As your advisory partner, we are available year-round to help you evaluate the tax impact of buying property, selling a business, or changing your entity structure before you sign on the dotted line.
Investment-Based Pricing, No Surprises
True advisory is an investment, not an expense. We provide clear, transparent pricing models based on the value and strategy we deliver, not just hours on a timesheet. You will understand exactly what strategic deliverables you are receiving to help you build and protect your wealth.

Frequently Asked Questions
Get clear answers to common questions about our tax preparation services.
How is Tax Advisory different from standard tax preparation?
Tax preparation is “historical”—it reports what has already happened in the past year. Tax Advisory is “futuristic”—it focuses on what
Who benefits the most from Tax Advisory services?
While anyone can benefit from planning, our Tax Advisory services provide the highest Return on Investment (ROI) for business owners, real estate investors, and high-net-worth individuals. If your financial life involves more than just a W-2 paycheck—such as business profits, capital gains, or rental income—standard filing is likely leaving money on the table that advisory could save.
Is Tax Advisory a one-time meeting or an ongoing relationship?
True tax reduction requires ongoing attention. Unlike a one-off consultation, our Tax Advisory service is a relationship. We generally meet quarterly or semi-annually to review your financial performance, adjust estimated payments, and pivot strategies as tax laws or your business goals change throughout the year.
Does Tax Advisory involve "aggressive" or illegal strategies?
Absolutely not. We practice tax
I already have a CPA. Do I need a Tax Advisor?
Many CPAs are excellent at compliance (filing accurate forms) but do not focus on strategy. If you only hear from your accountant once a year to sign a return, you are getting preparation, not advisory. We often work with clients who feel they have “outgrown” their current preparer and need a partner who brings proactive ideas to the table.
