Meet Our Team
After graduating from The Benjamin N. Cardozo School of Law in 2004, I gained valuable work experience at various law firms and government/judicial organizations. In 2010, I joined the Bloomberg Industry Group, where my interest in tax and accounting grew as I regularly educated clients about Bloomberg’s top-tier information products, focusing on legal, tax, accounting, and finance.
From Bloomberg, I founded The Chamberlain Law Firm, where I handle “death tax” returns, capital gains, and trust tax issues, while also managing the firm’s finances. My passion for small business ownership and my clear understanding of the connections between estate and income tax planning motivated me to start The Chamberlain Accounting Firm, where I assist clients with bookkeeping, accounting, and taxes. The combination of these services, along with the Law Firm’s ability to support estate planning, elder law, and probate needs, has expanded my capacity to deliver exceptional results for my clients.
Chamberlain Accounting’s sole mission is to deliver efficient, accurate, and affordable accounting services that help individuals and businesses manage their finances confidently. We prioritize tax preparation, bookkeeping, and financial consulting because these areas are essential in people’s daily lives, especially when making important financial decisions or during tough economic times.
The Chamberlain Accounting Firm aims to:
– Provide outstanding accounting and financial services.
– Help clients with clear, informed advice so they understand their financial options.
– Offer comprehensive solutions that suit various situations, ensuring the best protection and growth opportunities.
I am also committed to constantly enhancing the client experience with the Firm. I aim to refine operations to ensure accuracy, transparency, and efficiency in every service. We leverage technology to streamline processes and provide timely results, while maintaining a personal approach that acknowledges each client’s unique goals and financial situation.
