As a Certified Public Accountant and federally authorized IRS Enrolled Agent, John prepares returns and represents taxpayers before the IRS in Oklahoma and every other state.
Our office is a real walk-in location in downtown Idabel at 8 North Central Ave, near the McCurtain County courthouse square — not a call center and not a big-city firm working you remotely.

John understands the books that actually run this county: timber and logging, cattle and poultry, farm income, and the Main Street small businesses that anchor Idabel. He also works with the newer Broken Bow, Beavers Bend, and Hochatown economy — cabin owners and short-term-rental (Airbnb/VRBO) hosts who need clean, tax-ready bookkeeping. And when an IRS letter shows up, you get dependable help close to home, without the drive to Texarkana, Paris, or the metro.
