Background
Our Story
Hale & Company Advisors was founded on a simple observation: most people receive their tax advice and their financial planning from two separate professionals who rarely speak to each other. The result is a gap — tax decisions made without regard to investment strategy, and investment decisions made without regard to tax consequence.
We built this firm to close that gap. By combining an IRS Enrolled Agent practice with CFP® financial planning and an affiliated investment advisory relationship, we offer clients a genuinely integrated experience — one where every financial decision is evaluated through both a tax lens and a wealth-building lens simultaneously.
We serve individuals, families, business owners, and professionals who want more than a transactional relationship with their advisors. Our clients expect precision, transparency, and a team that is accountable to their interests — not to a product shelf.
Fiduciary Standard
We are legally and ethically obligated to act in your best interest. No commissions, no product quotas — just advice aligned with your goals.
Integrated Approach
Tax strategy and financial planning are not separate disciplines here. Every recommendation considers both dimensions before it reaches you.
Credentialed Expertise
Our team holds the Enrolled Agent designation from the IRS and the CFP® certification — two of the most rigorous credentials in their respective fields.
Long-Term Partnership
We measure success in decades, not quarters. Our client relationships are built on continuity, trust, and a deep understanding of your evolving financial life.
Designations
Our Credentials
Two of the most rigorous designations in tax and financial planning.
IRS — Internal Revenue Service
Enrolled Agent (EA)
The Enrolled Agent is the highest credential awarded by the IRS. EAs are federally licensed tax practitioners who have demonstrated expertise in tax law through a comprehensive three-part examination covering individual taxation, business taxation, and representation. Unlike CPAs or attorneys, the EA designation is exclusively focused on taxation — it is the only credential issued directly by the federal government for tax practice.
- Unlimited representation rights before the IRS
- Expertise across individual, business, estate, and trust taxation
- Federally licensed — recognized in all 50 states
- Subject to continuing education requirements and ethical standards
CFP Board
CFP® — Certified Financial Planner
The CFP® certification is the standard of excellence in financial planning. Candidates must complete extensive coursework, pass a rigorous board examination, accumulate thousands of hours of professional experience, and adhere to a strict code of ethics. CFP® professionals are required to act as fiduciaries when providing financial planning advice — meaning your interests come first, always.
- Fiduciary duty when providing financial planning advice
- Comprehensive planning: investments, retirement, estate, insurance, tax
- Rigorous examination and experience requirements
- Ongoing ethics and continuing education obligations
