Industries We Serve
Cannabis
We are your trusted partner in the cannabis and hemp business.
Your industry is valued in the multi-billion dollar range, and New York State is positioned to be one of the most lucrative cannabis markets in the United States. However, since the sale of cannabis remains illegal at the federal level, these businesses face unique tax implications.
We will help you navigate tax codes and implications, industry regulations, audit preparation, tax planning, business licensing, outsourced accounting services, and financial statement audits.
