Your Business Starts Here, Warwick

John C. Pacos CPA PC is a licensed CPA firm in Warwick, NY, providing business startup planning services to entrepreneurs and small business owners across the Hudson Valley and remotely nationwide.

Starting a business without the right entity structure or tax plan can mean overpaying self-employment tax, missing quarterly filing deadlines, or choosing an LLC when an S-corp would save real money. We see the stakes up close: a wrong entity choice discovered a year in can cost thousands of dollars to unwind. Getting this right from day one protects your time and your money.

Business Startup Planning Built Around Your Structure

We help new business owners select the right entity type, whether that's a sole proprietorship, LLC, S-corp, or C-corp, and register the business correctly with the state. We also advise on how to set up bookkeeping and tax systems from day one, so there's no guesswork left by the time your business opens its doors.

A CPA evaluates your business goals and recommends the entity structure and tax setup that minimizes liability and paperwork. Unlike generic online formation services, a CPA looks at your actual numbers and long-term plans, not just a form. The result: a startup foundation built to hold up as your business grows.

Setting Up Your Business Follows a Clear Sequence

Initial consultation. We review your business idea, projected income, and goals to understand what structure fits.

Entity selection and formation. We recommend and help you file the right entity, LLC, S-corp, or other, with New York State.

Tax and bookkeeping setup. We advise on how set up your accounting system and register you for the correct state and federal tax accounts.

Ongoing support. We stay available for quarterly filings, payroll questions, and tax planning as your business grows.
