Did you know that the federal internal revenue code and tax regulations are now over 10 million words long?
By comparison, the epic novel "War and Peace" is only 587,287 words long.
On top of this, individuals and businesses have to comply with state and local laws that can be equally as confusing.
Get expert assistance in navigating the tax maze - contact us today to discuss your tax situation, and how you can best pro-actively plot your course to minimize your taxes, and reduce unpleasant surprises.
The service you receive from your tax advisor should go far beyond preparation of tax returns and compliance with tax laws. Your situation is unique, and you need a comprehensive tax plan that is integrated with your financial and estate plans.

From Our Clients
Jonathan Bohannon
Freidel & Associates engineered for us a creative solution to a unique and decades-old business structuring issue that other professionals were unable to solve. Their team did it with candor, empathy, and professionalism.
They work with speed, efficiency, and professionalism. Their goal is to protect clients and save them money, something I have experienced first-hand. Highest recommendation.
Barbara Klinkel
After 12 years of doing all the bookkeeping, payroll, AP, taxes, etc. for our businesses I was feeling overwhelmed by the growth and added responsibilities. I knew we needed a professional accounting partner. We are so blessed to have found Ben Paulding and Freidel & Associates. He has provided us with a complete package of service that we can trust. He has guided us with great insight into our mission and goals for doing business in this community.
Sterling Decker
Paul Freidel is the ultimate professional. My family and I have worked with Paul for many years, and it’s been very exciting to see him establish his own firm and bring highly talented individuals under his wing. Paul is quick as a whip, insightful, talented at explaining highly complex matters simply and always makes you feel like you’re asking good questions! I could not recommend Paul, and his exceptional team, any higher.
Kevin Andreson
I have worked with Paul and his team on our business and personal matters in the areas of tax, accounting and financial planning. Paul and his team are the consummate professionals. They are thorough and have a deep understanding of tax and financial planning. They advise us on strategies specific to our situation and take steps to support our businesses. They take time to understand our specific needs and work hard to come up with strategic, well-thought-out solutions. I highly recommend using Freidel & Associates.
Lori Beasley
My husband and I inherited some money in mid-life and we immediately put it into our bank's financial advisor account. It grew and fell several times. It was impersonal, and I felt I needed to be more involved. We met Ben Paulding and he was the answer I needed to be more pro active in making decisions about what we wanted and what our goals were. He helped us be more aggressive in our decisions, and today we are retired and living with the great decisions Ben helped us make. He is honest and hard working and we are very grateful for his advice, I can recommend him and his company to anyone with financial goals, he will help you.
Shasta Moreno
Ben Paulding and I have had the opportunity to provide coaching to a mutual client within our respective expertise. Both my client and I have built enormous respect for and place high value on Freidel & Associates' approach, creativity, and candor during this process. I look forward to future opportunities of fellowship and teamwork!
