About HBL

Tax return specialists

We will get in the boat with you and row.

More than only a CPA. We’re your outsourced CFO.

50+ years of full-service certified public accounting.

We started HBL in 1973 with a singular commitment - to provide our business clients with unmatched service and unparalleled solutions to the financial challenges they face.

Over the last five decades, that commitment to excellence has only gotten stronger. We’ve strived to exceed our client’s expectations, empower our team, and excel in our community through a mixture of guidance and giving back that is atypical with most accounting firms. Our business was founded on key principles that we still adhere to today

Reliability
Collaboration
Service

I have been using the services of HBL for 7 years now with no complaints. I view them as an integral part of my business. I meet with their CPA’s at the beginning of every fourth quarter to review for end of the year tax planning which is largely beneficial. Thanks for the great service!

Business owner

John, Coleen and the entire team have been great to work with on both my personal and business tax return. We have several mutual clients as well and I am confident in referring my clients to them for tax and accounting services. Thank you for always looking out for us and making our lives easier!

HBL has been a godsend these past 2 years! We recently got hit with an amended return from 3 years ago, and they quickly sprung to action! Thanks to their help, we ended up owing less than half what we thought we were going to pay! Then this year, they did an awesome job on our taxes!! We are truly happy that we have found an accountant that not only knows what they are doing, but are extremely personable. If you need your taxes done, or are having IRS trouble, then you’ve come to the right accountant!

We deeply care about our employees, our community, our clients and their companies - and it’s easy to see that commitment when you choose to partner with HBL.
