Our Team Approach to Accounting Services

Hauk Kruse & Associates (HKA) is a boutique, St Louis, Certified Public Accounting firm with the skill sets needed to offer a wide variety of personal and business accounting services. The list of services includes but is not limited to Tax Planning and Preparation, Auditing, Management Consulting, Incorporation and Business Advisory Assistance. While our home base is St. Louis Missouri our client services can be applied in all fifty states and around the world.

A core objective of HKA is to provide Corporations, Business Owners and Families with the personal service that we all want...... on a platform of the latest technology...... that we all need. To this end HKA uses its knowledge of its clients and its access to technology to develop plans to help protect our client's present and future taxable assets. As an example of HKA's approach, the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) through its web service provides numerous advisories on how the tax code can be applied to benefit the tax payer. HKA stays current on IRS advisories and how and if the information provided can be exercised in our clients best interest. This attention to detail provides one of the many values in the HKA - client relationship.

While HKA invites all inquiries regarding our services, we recognize that our approach to accounting services may not be a fit for some. One reason might be that the honesty and integrity we demand of our HKA team in managing our client accounts mirrors what is expected of HKA by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS). And we will abide by that expectation. We believe this adherence to honesty and integrity is what our clients expect from us as we in turn expect of the information provided HKA by our clients. Anything less would jeopardize the trust in the relationship, would be disingenuous and in some cases illegal.

All of the members of the HKA team are client advocates and as such will stay current on the ever changing tax code and advisories to determine if and how they can be legitimately applied to each and every client's unique local, state and federal tax situation. We will do this by playing by the rules. In the words of Albert Einstein, "You have to learn the rules of the game and then you have to play better than anyone else." As with so many things, Einstein had it right and at HKA we know the rules and we play better than anyone else.

Thanks,
Bill
