Helping You Reach Your Personal &
Business Goals
Our commitment to our clients is to go 'Beyond the bottom line.' Any accountant can prepare financial statements and tax returns. For us, this is just the starting point of our dedication to our clients. We go beyond the preparation of these reports to determine how this information affects their business and personal lives. We analyze the financial information to improve their business operations and help them achieve their personal objectives effectively and efficiently through consulting, tax planning and system analysis.
Our main focus is our clients.
We love to work with self-employed businesses, owner-manager businesses, start-up companies, established companies, with professionals and partnerships. Not only do we have a lot of experience with these types of businesses, but we can identify with the challenges you see day in and day out.
We focus on our service to you, our customer. You are the reason we are in business.
Our experienced team works with you to address your current needs and plan for your future needs. We grow with you, offering tailored services to define and meet your objectives. You get the benefits of experience, timeliness and our undivided attention.
It pays to have a professional to do certain things and not all tax preparers are created equal. There are many “tax specialists” out there who profess they can provide you with all the services you need at a bargain basement price. The reality is, as is often the case in life, you get what you pay for.
We ensure that you will be informed of any new changes to the tax rules, and provide you with up-to-date advice catered to your specific needs.

Change is hard.
We strive towards making the transition from an existing accountant as painless as possible. Alternatively, if you are seeking out an accountant for the first time we can show you how we can make a difference to your personal and or business life.
We are extremely proactive. Rather than waiting for you to present us with a problem, we make a point to foresee potential issues our clients may encounter. Then we work with our clients to best plan for these issues.
Often, it is not what we say about our work that matters, it is what our customers say.
"When my husband died, I was overwhelmed by many things, including organizing our taxes. Jay Granatstein, helped ease my mind by explaining what paperwork I needed to submit and taking care of filing tax returns for my husband's estate.This meant at a very stressful time in my life, I could leave the accounting work to a kind accounting expert and focus on my two young children.".
"After more than 30 years as Jay Granatstein's client, I can assure you that Jay and his team know their stuff, but for Jay it's not just about keeping up with the rules and adding up the numbers. It's about helping you. With Jay and his staff, you get the care and attention of a small firm together with the expertise of a larger firm. I would not hesitate to recommend Jay Granatstein to anyone looking for personal or business accounting services."
