The difference
How we approach the work.
Tax preparation isn't just about filling out forms—it's about ensuring you pay exactly what you owe, not a penny more. Many taxpayers overpay simply because they miss deductions or don't understand the latest tax law changes.
At LeCPA, we combine deep tax expertise with a personalized approach. Whether you're a W-2 employee with a side hustle, a business owner with complex entity structures, or a real estate investor with multiple properties, we prepare your return with precision and strategic insight.
Our DFW-based team stays current on federal and Texas-specific tax regulations, ensuring your return is compliant and optimized. We don't just file—we advise.

Questions
Common questions.
What documents do I need to provide?
At minimum: all W-2s, 1099 forms, last year's return, and Social Security numbers for everyone on the return. We'll send you a detailed checklist based on your situation—it covers everything from mortgage statements to charitable donations.
How long does tax preparation take?
It depends on the return and on when your documents are complete. Business returns, rental properties and multi-state filings take longer than a simple individual return. You get a timeline when the work is scoped.
Do you handle amended returns?
Yes. If you discover missed income, forgotten deductions, or errors on a prior return, we can file Form 1040-X to correct it. To claim a refund, you generally have 3 years from the date you filed the original return or 2 years from the date you paid the tax, whichever is later.
What if I haven't filed in several years?
We help clients catch up on unfiled returns regularly. The IRS typically requires the last 6 years to be filed. We can obtain wage transcripts from the IRS if you've lost documents, and can request penalty abatement where it applies.
Can you help with state returns outside Texas?
Yes. If you have income from multiple states, we handle proper allocation and credits to prevent double taxation.
