Have you just started a new business? Did you know expenses incurred before a business begins operations are not allowed as current deductions? Generally, these start up costs must be amortized over a period of 180 months beginning in the month in which the business begins. However, based on the current tax provisions, you may elect to deduct up to $5,000 of business start-up and $5,000 of organizational costs paid or incurred. The $5,000 deduction is reduced by any start-up or organizational costs which exceed $50,000.
Following are some generally recognized financial planning tools that may help you reduce your tax bill. Charitable Giving - Instead of selling your appreciated long-term securities, donate the stock instead and avoid paying tax on the unrealized gain while still getting a charitable tax deduction for the full fair market value.

I used Dalal for 4 years and they've landed me in a world of trouble. My returns were never correctly files with the IRS. Let me repeat my returns were never properly file. 4 years later Dala I was informed they were rejected but he IRS. I have since lost thousands in refunds the IRS won't pay because they've timed out. I have also spent thousands going over all my returns with a new firm to correct the filing issues. Emails went unanswered, I was told 'we're working on it', the iRS is taking along time to respond and then my accountant finally went AWOL and never responded to my emails.
When confronted they denied any ownership and wanted nothing to do with resolving this issues and washed their hands GO ELSEWHERE and save you and your business the headache and financial worries. After paying for their services and not having them delivered its been a stressful and expensive experience I would not want other business too incur.

Dalal Associates have helped us navigate the US tax code for well over 16 years. Arish and his team are business savvy, personable, and extremely knowledgeable. As a healthcare consultant and property manager I need a firm that understands the entire scope of my business and provides sound advice for its growth and longevity. Its clear that Dalals talented team and vast rolodex of referrals is a resource for any business.
This past winter, when I needed assistance in working through numbers for a client, Arish personally sat with me for over 2 hours to guide me through the calculations. To me, that speaks volumes of the kind of service and professionalism he and his team offer and what clearly sets them apart from similar firms in the industry. If you are looking for dedicated accounting specialists with excellent business acumen, personalized service and professional advice. You've found the right firm!

I contacted Dalal Associates after an attorney had recommended them, spoke highly of them, etc. I understand this was also a family friend, etc. Nevertheless, I reached out to them and was in contact with Keenan. I explained the issue I was having regarding my last years taxes, what could be done, etc. I emailed my taxes to him as he asked in November.
I never heard from him, or anyone from the firm, since. I reached out several times and was always told he was busy, in a meeting, on vacation during the holidays, etc. It is now mid January and still nothing. (Must be all family who gives them 5 star reviews on FB)
