My services
Whether it’s year-end financial statements, day-to-day bookkeeping, income tax returns, or tax planning—I support businesses, self-employed individuals, and private clients through digital collaboration via DATEV, clear processes, and advice without the jargon. The goal is for you to understand your numbers and make confident tax decisions on your own:
- Financial statements and business tax returns
- Financial accounting
- Income tax return
- Consulting, Structuring and Planning
Annual financial statements and corporate tax returns
I prepare financial statements and business tax returns for common legal entities.
Additional services can be booked as needed, including:
- Disclosure in the company register
- Explanatory report and Multi-year and sector comparison
- Digital financial report and discussion of the balance sheet (as PDF presentation upon request)
- Tax planning for future years
Especially in the early stages of starting your own business, keeping organized tax records is crucial as the basis for your tax returns. As part of our collaboration, I’m happy to assist you with this and, upon request, provide you with a free license for Lexware Office (S to XL plans) for up to 12 months, provided you haven’t used the software before.
If you’d like to handle your own bookkeeping and are looking for a powerful accounting program, I recommend DATEV Mittelstand Faktura mit Rechnungswesen.
Financial accounting
The basis for our ongoing collaboration is DATEV Unternehmen online — your digital portal for the secure exchange of documents and reports.
If needed, I can recommend suitable service providers for payroll processing.
Income tax return
You can conveniently submit your documents for your income tax return digitally via DATEV Meine Steuern.
If you have any questions about submitting documents, would like to discuss the draft together, or have specific tax-related issues—such as those related to real estate purchases or one-time planning—you can make an appointment at any time
Consulting, Structuring and Planning
I not only assist you with your ongoing tax returns, but also with important decisions regarding your business, your real estate, and your personal financial situation. With access to extensive specialized databases (including Beck Premium and Haufe Excellence), I can ensure that I always have the latest expert information, court rulings, and industry metrics at my disposal.
Founding and Choosing a Legal Structure
GmbH or UG? Sole proprietorship or corporation? I’ll explain the differences in tax and liability—without all the consultant jargon.
Managing Director’s Salary and Distributions
A salary that’s too high or too low can end up costing you a lot in taxes. I’ll help you find an appropriate range and structure your withdrawals in a tax-efficient way.
Liquidity and Tax Planning
Advance payments, reserves, investment decisions—I’ll show you how the decisions you make today will affect your tax burden tomorrow.
Tax Audit
I’ll guide you through the entire process—from preparation, through the audit period, to follow-up—including assessing audit findings and communicating with the tax authorities.
Real Estate
Tax analysis for purchases, rentals, or sales. I’ll clearly outline depreciation, financing structures, potential for tax planning, and risks.
My Goal
My goal is to ensure that you don’t just receive “numbers and decisions,” but also clear explanations, straightforward answers to the question “What does this mean for me?”, and specific recommendations for action that you can put into practice in your daily life.
