A small city with an outsized business mix
Burbank has just over 103,000 residents, according to the latest U.S. Census Bureau estimate, but its daytime business population is much larger. Warner Bros., Walt Disney Studios, and Nickelodeon Animation Studio are all headquartered here, alongside a long list of production, post-production, and entertainment-services companies that orbit them. Burbank is also home to Hollywood Burbank Airport and a busy retail and restaurant corridor along Magnolia Park and Downtown Burbank.
That mix means we see a wide range of situations from one neighborhood: W-2 studio employees and 1099 crew, small production and post houses managing project-based bookkeeping, retail and restaurant owners handling sales tax and payroll, and homeowners navigating California property tax rules. We don't assume every Burbank client's situation looks the same, and we scope the work after we understand yours.

Questions about our Burbank office
Where is your Burbank office located?
Our office is at 1050 W. Alameda Ave., Burbank, CA 91506, in the Media District. Street parking and nearby lots are available.
Do I have to come in person, or can we work remotely?
Both. Burbank and Los Angeles clients are welcome to meet in our office, and we also serve clients by phone, video, and secure document upload for anyone who prefers not to visit in person.
What should I bring to a first meeting?
For tax work, bring your prior-year return, current-year income documents (W-2s, 1099s, K-1s), and any IRS or FTB notices you've received. For bookkeeping or payroll, bring recent bank and payroll records. We'll tell you exactly what's needed once we know your situation.
Do you work with Burbank's media and entertainment businesses?
Yes. Production companies, post-production vendors, and other entertainment-adjacent businesses in Burbank have accounting needs, like irregular income timing and equipment purchases, that differ from a typical retail or service business. We scope that during an initial consultation rather than assume a one-size-fits-all answer.
Can you help with a Burbank business license or city tax question?
We can help you understand how your business's structure and income affect your filings, and coordinate with the City of Burbank Finance Department where needed. Business license and local tax rates are set by the city, so we'll point you to the current city schedule rather than quote a number that may be out of date.
We also work with clients throughout the San Fernando Valley
Most of our clients outside Burbank never need to visit the office in person, but we're a short drive from these neighboring communities.
