As an accounting firm, LG&H is an essential service. For the safety of our clients and staff, our office is closed to the public and our staff is working remotely. We can be contacted via phone and email. All returns will be prepared and securely emailed or postal mailed to you. Since most returns are e-filed, we will provide you with a form 8879 for authorization. Please sign and email or fax it to us. If faxing or emailing is not available, we can make other arrangements for your authorization.
We want to extend all the best to you and your families in the troubling time. We are all dealing with many challenges, and will minimize the tax filing process as much as possible.
Sincerely
LG&H
