Services
Franklin Management provides outsourced accounting solutions to small businesses, start-ups and non-profits. We have a menu of services ranging from bookkeeping and payroll to financial statement preparation, budgeting and forecasting creation and CFO services. We also have a tax practice that specializes in tax preparation and consulting to small businesses, start-ups and non-profits as well as individuals.
There are times when your small business needs more accounting and financial advice than you can get from a bookkeeper or a tax preparer. That's when CFO-level and CFO-level services can come in handy. You can't afford to hire a full time CFO, but luckily you can still get the high quality accounting services you need to help your company grow.
We enjoy working with a wide variety of service businesses. Each type of service offers its own challenges and opportunities, and we love learning about your business while sharing our financial expertise to help you meet your business goals.
We serve professional services firms such as architects, law firms, consultants, career coaches, recruiters, resume writers, technology services, training companies, meeting planners, speakers, veterinary clinics, and similar businesses.

I cannot recommend this business in the slightest. I recently had a business tax matter which required a consultation with a tax attorney. I called a firm in the Bay Area that personally recommended I give Jack Harrington from Franklin Management a call and have him go over my records in order to get a second opinion and give the law firm a better idea of the situation and whether or not we have a case. Now I don't know who they have working here but I left a message on Thursday for Jack and patiently awaited a call back. I finally received that call back from one of the rudest middle aged

Do not work with Jack and Franklin Management. They were a total nightmare, and even though I've switched over to another much more professional agency, the damage they caused still lingers today. I had to cut the cord and drop them with work being unfinished with countless mistakes leftover. The new company has been going back over a year to clean up their mess.
Jack's team would guess where to class your expenses and put them in the dumbest places instead of asking or doing a review. They were months behind. The months they did reconcile, they left nasty balances lingering. They were

10+ stars! Look no further! Months ago we were looking for a new tax accountant, numerous colleges (business owners) told us about Franklin Management. After all owners raving about the entire staff also accounting services offered at Franklin Management, we decided to have a meeting to see if they were able to assist us with our business. For clearing up our past tax accountants errors, to handling our current taxes moving forward, etc. Of course they are able to assist us, immediately seen how clean their entire office is, attentive staff plus their location is at a prime industrial location

Avoid like the plague! Absolutely unprofessional; first said to wait for 3 weeks to file documents for no apparent reason... then, when time was up, lost my data (said computer crushed; no backup for customer data???); did not call me about that and invited to start the process again (which I refused, of course). They should be banned from professional service.

Jack Harrington has been preparing my tax return for over five years. I have been very pleased with his professionalism, expertise and excellent customer service from him and his entire staff. I have called or emailed him with questions and he has responded immediately and welcomes an appointment if necessary.
I trust Jack completely and if your looking for a tax accountant, give Jack a call. Best decision I made after calling several preparers.

Jack saved us thousands of $$$$! We had failed to file our taxes on time and began to receive threatening letters from the IRS letting us know that we were being fined. What we thought was just a little mistake began to get scary. We went to see Jack and he let us know that he should be able to clear this up, but it will take time, so be patient. Jack took the time to work with us and keep us calm, and sure enough, after about 6 months we received a letter from the IRS letting us know that our fine was reduced to ZERO! Franklin Tax Service delivered on what they said they would do and they have

I was hesitant to bring in someone to do my bookkeeping but after meeting with Jack and his team I decided to go for it...and i'm so glad I did! Not only do they save me the constant headache of handling my own bookkeeping but they are so pleasant to work with. I definitely feel secure knowing that Franklin Management is a part of my business and would recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable bookkeeper!

Jack and Sandra are about as good as it gets!!! Word that spring to mind are: Efficient, Great Value, Timely, Responsive and Meticulous. We just filed our taxes, both personal and professional, for the year and both Jack and Sandra were quick at getting back to us and made themselves readily available to us when we had questions. My husband and I recommend them wholeheartedly and encourage anyone in need of a "tax man" to give Franklin Management a try. I'm confident you won't be disappointed!
