Our Virtual Accounting Solutions

We at Doherty & Associates are aware that our clients’ schedules are ever-changing. Providing in-person or in-office services alone is insufficient. Relying solely on traditional in-person meetings is insufficient to deliver the financial management and business insight that modern businesses require to thrive. For this reason, we offer virtual accounting services in addition to our in-person corporate accounting and tax preparation services.

Our remote accounting solutions are the perfect choice for small businesses and entrepreneurs who want to project the greatest possible image of professionalism without paying for an office. In addition, we offer easily accessible small business outsourced accounting services, as well as instructive financial advice.

Strategic Growth Starts With Strong Accounting

Your accounting system is more than just numbers — it’s the foundation for confident decisions, sustainable growth, and financial peace of mind. At Doherty & Associates, we take the complexity out of accounting, giving you time to lead your business forward with assurance.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I have been working with Doherty & Associates for years. This year the accounting firm is under new leadership. All I can say is that Jim McMahon is absolutely wonderful. He is attentive, works quickly and carefully, and responds immediately to even the most minute question. So glad that I stuck with this firm for my taxes. Highly Recommend!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I have been using Doherty & Associates for several years now and have always been completely satisfied with their great service.  I recently brought an issue directly to Debbie Doherty and was blown away by the service and response to my needs.  I was treated with respect and patience, and received a completely explanatory response in practically no time.  There had to have been work required to provide me with the answers I needed and yet there was no additional fees !

Would highly recommend Doherty & Associates for your tax needs if you are looking for professional customer service.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. For years I had done my own taxes with one of the online solutions, in 2019 I had Doherty & Associates complète my taxes and they did an amazing job. Saved me quite a bit more money than if I had done them myself AND it really is sooo much less stressful to have someone you trust doing your taxes for you. I highly recommend their services for both business and personal taxes.
