Work with us

From chaos to confidence: how a month is reconciled, closed and turned into the owner’s package. 72 seconds.

The Baratelli Institute's books read companies and family fortunes the way a CFO, a family office CFO and a lender read them. Our two firms bring that same discipline to families, owners and lenders every month. There are three ways to begin.

Families and family offices

Baratelli CPA & Accounting, PLLC keeps the books of family companies, trusts and households in one place, with a monthly package that shows the business and the household together, the quarterly tax estimates set aside, and the personal financial statement a lender asks for.

Business owners and contractors

Books closed every month to a written checklist and a package within days: the scorecard, the statements, what is safe to take, a thirteen-week cash forecast and who owes you money. Contractors also get the jobs page a surety and a bank read first. Before a sale, a readiness review proves the earnings.

Lenders and buyers

Baratelli Transaction Advisory, LLC serves SBA 7(a) and conventional lenders with loan triage, the Cash and Transcript Check, spreads, full credit memos and annual reviews, performs quality of earnings engagements for lenders and buyers of businesses, and reviews a quality of earnings someone else prepared when the lender did not order it, on a fixed scope, independent of the parties to every deal, and never on a company whose books its affiliate keeps.

Tax returns

Baratelli CPA & Accounting, PLLC prepares business and individual returns, whether we keep your books or you do: the S corporation, partnership or C corporation return, the K-1s to every owner, and the owners' own returns.
