WHO WE SERVE
Built for Anyone Building Something

Whether you're launching your first LLC or scaling an established business, Burkes Financial meets you where you are โ€” and takes you further.

๐Ÿ—๏ธ
Startups & New Businesses
"You have the idea. You need the structure."

Most new businesses fail before they start โ€” wrong entity, missed filings, no EIN, no bank account. We form your LLC or corporation correctly from day one, set up your EIN, and get you operating legally so you can focus on growth.

Contractors & Freelancers
"You're collecting 1099s and paying too much in taxes."

If you're self-employed and making $50K+ per year, an S-Corp election could save you $5,000โ€“$12,000 annually in self-employment tax. We handle the election, the payroll setup and the quarterly filings.

Real Estate Investors
"Every property should be in its own entity. Is yours?"

Real estate without the right structure is liability waiting to happen. We set up holding LLCs, operating agreements, and tax strategy to protect your assets and maximize deductions โ€” whether you own 1 property or 10.

Creatives & Influencers
"If a brand is paying you โ€” you're a business. Act like one."

Brand deals, sponsorships, content revenue โ€” the IRS sees all of it as business income. We help creators structure correctly, elect S-Corp status at the right income level, and build a business that outlasts any single platform.

Owner-Operators & Truckers
"Your truck is your business. Your business needs a structure."

From DOT compliance to IFTA to the right LLC structure, we understand the trucking industry. We set up your entity, handle your bookkeeping, manage your quarterly taxes and keep your business running lean.

Nonprofits & Community Orgs
"Your mission deserves the legal protection and tax status to match."

We incorporate your nonprofit, prepare your bylaws and board documents, file for 501(c)(3) tax-exempt status, and keep you compliant with annual reporting โ€” so you can focus on impact, not paperwork.

Established Small Businesses
"You're making money. Now let's make sure you're keeping it."

Most established businesses are either overpaying in taxes, undermaintaining their books, or operating under the wrong entity structure. A single strategy session with Quentin often identifies $5Kโ€“$20K in recoverable savings.

Side Hustlers Going Full-Time
"The moment you're ready to go full-time, structure matters."

Transitioning from W-2 to full-time entrepreneur is the moment most people get their taxes and entity structure wrong. We map your transition โ€” entity selection, quarterly estimated taxes, bookkeeping setup and a 12-month financial plan.

Professionals & Consultants
"You bill by the hour. Are you protecting what you earn?"

Doctors, attorneys, financial advisors, coaches โ€” high-income professionals are often the most overtaxed. We build the right entity structure, manage your books and implement tax strategies that keep more of what you earn.

Athletes โ€” NIL Strategy
"Your name, image and likeness is a business. Treat it like one."

NIL income is taxable income. Without the right LLC structure and tax strategy, athletes lose a significant portion of brand deals and appearance fees to taxes and agent fees. We build the business around the athlete.
