Stuart Lavender

“From beginning to end, I tailor my services to the needs of the client.”

Stuart Lavender is with his clients every step of the engagement. He understands that sometimes a little something extra is needed – or as he likes to put it, “I hold the client’s hands and guide them through the entire process.”

Promptly returning calls, following through on requests, routine check-ins, keeping information up to date and filing forms efficiently, are all ways Stuart has maintained strong client relationships over the years. For him it’s an ongoing process.

A partner in the New Jersey office, Stuart has more than 30 years of tax and accounting experience. He offers a diverse range of audit, accounting and consulting services to his clients, emphasizing growth, savings potential, managing assets, day-to-day business activities and wealth management. He also advises his clients on federal, state and local issues and has represented clients before the Internal Revenue Service and other government authorities.
