South of Richmond, Chesterfield County is bounded by the James River to the north and the Appomattox River to the south, with Chesterfield Court House as the county seat. That geography is local color, not a claim about jobs performed on either river. What the county actually produces for a CPA is mixed households and small shops in Midlothian, Chester, Bon Air, Brandermill, Meadowbrook, and Woodlake: W-2 plus 1099, Schedule C, or a new LLC, people who need a certified public accountant that will say the next step out loud.
O'KEEFFECPA & Associates treats Individual & Business Tax Preparation, IRS Tax Resolution & Dispute Representation, and Small Business Formation & Entity Selection as one practice rather than three disconnected products. A free consultation comes first. After that, documents move through the client portal, payments can be made online, and appointment booking is available from any of the three Virginia locations: Downtown Richmond at 1 N. 5th Street, Suite 502; Henrico at 4110 E. Parham Road, Suite 204; and Alexandria at 2121 Eisenhower Avenue, Suite 200.
Chesterfield residents often sit next to Richmond, Henrico County, and Hanover County on the same week's calendar, and they still want one relationship owner instead of a growth-metric firm that rotates staff. The honest split is this: bookkeeping is recurring transaction recording; tax preparation is the annual filing; tax planning is the year-round structure conversation. You do not have to buy all three. Lorna Secondi noted the continuity: "Has been our household tax preparer for a decade, and then when I incorporated as a contractor, took over my small business taxes."

How we work in Chesterfield County
Individual & Business Tax Preparation
Midlothian and Chester households still need Form 1040; a Bon Air S-corp still needs Form 1120-S. Individual & Business Tax Preparation is scoped to the forms you actually have. A free consultation at the start keeps add-ons from hiding inside a lump quote.
IRS Tax Resolution & Dispute Representation
Chesterfield County residents get the same IRS tools as the city: Offer in Compromise, Currently Not Collectible, penalty abatement, levy relief, when the case supports them. Tax resolution is dispute representation, not a promise of a reduced balance. The consult is an assessment.
Small Business Formation & Entity Selection
Brandermill and Woodlake owners asking LLC vs S-corp are in Small Business Formation & Entity Selection, including K-1 and startup setup. That conversation belongs with tax prep so the first filing matches the entity. Lowest-cost suitable structure is presented first.
Bookkeeping Services
Meadowbrook shops that want monthly books are asking for transaction recording, not a second tax return. Bookkeeping Services is recurring; tax prep is annual. You can hire one without the other.
Payroll Services
First payroll in Chester or Midlothian is withholding, quarterly filings, and payroll compliance. Payroll Services stays off the tax-prep invoice unless you ask for it. Scope is written down.
Tax Planning & Consulting
Tax Planning & Consulting south of Richmond is estimated taxes and tax-efficient structure before December, not a rewrite of last April. If you already calculated the return, filing can stay filing. Strategy is a separate, named outcome.
Federal Acquisition Services
Federal Acquisition Services exists for Chesterfield clients in government contracting support. River geography and county-seat facts are not a substitute for that need. Request it when federal acquisition is real work you do.
Amended Tax Returns
Amended Tax Returns for a Chesterfield County filer mean Form 1040-X on a specific prior-year error. Old returns are not mined for extra fees. You point at the year; that year is what gets corrected.
Back Taxes & Unfiled Returns
Unfiled years in Chesterfield County are catch-up filings first. If the IRS has moved toward a levy, the file can shift into tax resolution. You are told which stage you are in.
Self-Employed & Schedule C Tax Filing
Self-Employed & Schedule C Tax Filing covers Chesterfield 1099 work, self-employment income, and estimated taxes. Many contractors here never need an S-corp. The consult is where that line is drawn.
Tax Preparation & Filing
Tax Preparation & Filing is the annual Chesterfield County return with documents in the client portal and a no-obligation consultation up front. Three Virginia locations remain available if you prefer Richmond or Henrico for the meeting. Filing does not lock you into a multi-year retainer.
Chesterfield County questions, answered
Do you work with people in Midlothian, Chester, and Bon Air, or only Richmond addresses?
Chesterfield County is in the service territory, including Midlothian, Chester, Bon Air, Brandermill, Meadowbrook, and Woodlake. Meetings can be Downtown Richmond, Henrico, or Alexandria, with the client portal for documents. The county line does not change the practice: tax prep, resolution, and small-business setup together.
I owe back taxes. How do I keep from getting pulled into a predatory resolution company?
Bring the notices to a no-obligation consultation and ask for an honest assessment of negotiable versus non-negotiable IRS positions. Back Taxes & Unfiled Returns starts with catch-up filings; tax resolution tools are used only when they apply. Educating you on your options comes before anyone sells a result.
Should I hire a CPA hourly or ask for a fixed scope for Chesterfield County work?
Ask for a scoped engagement with a written boundary so you are not locked into a retainer you do not need. Hourly can fit a short diagnostic; a fixed fee can fit a defined return. The lowest-cost suitable option should be presented first, with a clear exit if the work is done.
We just hired our first employee in Chester. Is payroll part of tax prep?
No. Payroll Services is withholding, quarterly filings, and payroll compliance, a separate scope from Tax Preparation & Filing. If you have no employees, skip it. If you just hired, add payroll on purpose rather than finding it as an add-on.
