Janathan Allen

Allen Barron provides integrated high-level business consulting services to provide a competitive advantage to our clients.  The business climate today is fast paced and quickly evolving.  Important business decisions must be taken quickly.  Business owners and executives require integrated information from multiple disciplines to inform complex decision making.  Today more than ever the questions facing executive management are complex and intertwined.

Today’s business life cycle moves quickly and requires detailed information and informed analysis from a broader perspective.  Tax decisions may affect the structure of entities within affiliated companies.  Accounting systems must capture detailed up-to-the-minute data and communicate it to operational decision makers to inform supply channel decisions.  Critical business opportunities such as expanding to a new continent may lie outside of existing manager’s areas of expertise. How will the structure of entity “x” affect the tax liabilities of company “y” and the distribution of products in various parts of the world?

The professionals at Allen Barron provide all these services in a single source.  We can tell you how a decision or issue will affect or impact your business from multiple perspectives: tax advantages or burdens, operations, profitability, corporate structure, accounting and tax reporting, as well as the impact it will have on your supply chain management and employee culture.

Janathan Allen is an experienced tax attorney and business lawyer who integrates business, legal, tax and accounting strategies to provide her clients with better answers to their questions and more informed strategies to leverage their opportunities.

Most businesses have separate tax attorneys, business attorneys, CPAs and accountants, tax preparers and financial advisors.  If you take the same problem to each professional, they will provide what they genuinely believe is the right and best answer.  However, it will only be based upon their unique (and somewhat limited) perspective.

The business attorney will have no idea how the solution they are recommending impacts business operations or your accounting systems.  The financial planner has no idea how their recommendation may be impacted by interstate or international tax implications.

This is the genuine value of the integrated approach Janathan Allen and Allen Barron take when they work with you as a client on any challenge or opportunity.
