Family-owned With a Personal Approach

For more than 20 years, Stambaugh Law Offices, founded by Charles Allen Stambaugh, III Esq., has guided individuals through tough financial times, especially regarding tricky tax issues. Initially, Charles worked as a turnaround specialist for a bank, helping struggling businesses find a way out of their financial crises. His experience provided invaluable insight into resolving tax problems for over 1000 clients, ranging from payroll complications to sorting out unfiled tax returns.

Then, in 2016, Allen Stambaugh, a seasoned CPA with a background at PwC, joined forces with Charles. This dynamic pairing transformed the firm into Stambaugh Tax Law & Accounting, expanding our services to include tax preparation and outsourced accounting. With Charles’s extensive tax law know-how and Allen’s accounting prowess, we aim to make taxes less overwhelming for everyone. We’re here to provide comprehensive solutions, and our dedication to offering regular access to a CPA at no extra cost has helped our clients save about 25% through improved reporting since we started in 2000.
