Some taxes are simple.
Some aren't.
You shouldn't pay as if they're all the same.
A straightforward tax return shouldn't come with a complicated price.
And when your tax situation really is complicated, you shouldn't have to settle for straightforward help.
That's why PRISM prices the work according to the work.
- Starting at $175
- Starting at $150

Tell us what you're dealing with. We'll tell you what it takes.
Just need your taxes done?

Good.
Not everybody needs a projection, a model, or a strategy session.
Sometimes you have a W-2, a state return, and a tax deadline.
We prepare those returns too.
For qualifying straightforward individual returns, preparation starts at $175.
If there's more to the return — self-employment, investments, capital gains, multiple states, retirement income, equity compensation, prior-year filings, amendments, or something else — we'll price the additional work according to what's required.
Simple stays simple. Complexity gets the attention it deserves.
Situations PRISM prepares
- Straightforward W-2 returns
- Self-employment
- Investments & capital gains
- Retirement income
- Multi-state returns
- Equity compensation
- Prior-year & amended returns
Among others — this list isn't exhaustive.
Have a question before you have a return?
Starting at $150
- What happens if I sell?
- Am I withholding enough?
- How much should I set aside?
- What happens if I move?
- What does this distribution change?
Taxes get expensive when you discover the question after the decision.
Sometimes one good calculation before you act is worth far more than another explanation after the year is over.
PRISM planning starts at $150 for focused tax questions and projections.
Planning may include areas such as:
- Withholding reviews
- Estimated tax payments
- Self-employment questions
- Investment or capital-gain events
- Retirement distributions
- Moves between states
- Focused tax projections
- Other tax-sensitive financial decisions
Bring us the decision before it becomes history.
Your initial consultation is free.
What if it really is complicated?
This is why the word Intelligence is in our name.
When one decision touches several variables — tax years, states, investments, equity compensation, capital gains, timing, or cash flow — PRISM can go deeper.
We can model alternatives, identify the tax drivers that matter, and show how potential outcomes change when the assumptions change.
Not because everybody needs it. Because when you do, it's already here.
More involved planning, multi-scenario analysis, and complex decision-support work is scoped individually after we understand the situation.

$175. $150. Or something more involved.
That's why we talk first.
You don't need to figure out which PRISM service you need.
You don't need to know which forms apply.
You don't need to decide whether your situation is "complex enough."
That's our job.
- 1.Tell us what's going on
- 2.We'll explain what the work requires and what it costs
- 3.You decide
A straightforward return shouldn't be priced like a complicated one. And a complicated situation shouldn't be treated like it's straightforward.
That's why PRISM doesn't force every client into the same service.
- Need your return prepared?
- We'll prepare it.
- Have a focused tax question?
- Start with planning.
- Facing a decision with several moving parts?
- We can go deeper.
The sophistication is there when you need it. Not added when you don't.
Not sure where your situation fits?
That's what the introductory call is for.
Tell us what's happening. We'll help determine what kind of work may be needed before you commit to anything.
Introductory consultations are free.
Your taxes will change.
- First job.
- A side business.
- Marriage.
- A home.
- Investments.
- A move.
- A family.
- A company.
- Retirement.
Eventually, what used to take twenty minutes can start raising questions you didn't know you needed to ask.
You shouldn't have to find a new tax relationship every time life gets more complicated.
From your first return to your family's last, PRISM is built to grow with you.
