At Palma Financial Services, Inc. we specialize in accounting, tax and financial planning for closely held businesses. We are a bilingual firm also active in the Hispanic community assisting individuals, businesses and young entrepreneurs.

The primary goals for our clients are tax and financial literacy, minimizing taxes and building wealth. Since 1998, our proven strategies have helped our clients achieve their financial goals with minimal investment and audit risk by the taxing authorities.

Our expertise includes Retirement Planning and Tax Free Investment vehicles with guaranteed rates of return. Since 2007, partly in response to widespread economic uncertainty, we have made a pledge to pursue a conservative approach; we stay away from mutual funds and other variable products, essentially avoiding the stock market for any of our clients’ investments.

To address their concerns and build wealth, our approach uses a low-risk, reasonable return strategy that employs guaranteed financial products, such as life insurance and annuities. Various clients have expressed to us that they sleep better at night knowing that their money is safe and growing risk-free.
