Having met in college, Patrick and Julie both pursued careers in public accounting, each working for one of the top eight accounting firms worldwide. After working in various arenas, from public accounting to public education, and healthcare to real estate, Patrick and Julie finally joined forces, professionally, when they opened Gentile, McCloskey and Company, in 2004. Patrick and Julie are both active members of the community, sitting on various charitable Boards, and participating in many local events. With over 40 years of combined experience, in the accounting, tax and business management fields, Patrick and Julie service a broad range of clients, from their office in Old Town Monrovia. They provide advice and strategic tax planning for their tax clients as part of preparing corporate, partnership, individual and fiduciary tax returns. With credentials as long as your arm, which include contractor's licenses, a real estate broker's license, two masters degrees, a juris doctorate, and postgraduate doctoral studies, Patrick and Julie could bore you with bios for days. They would much rather meet you in person, so you can see they are just regular working class stiffs, who really enjoy helping their clients navigate the everyday tax issues, that affect most of us. We hope you enjoyed this little book, as much as one can enjoy this many words about taxes.
