About Us
Founded in 1980
Hamilton Tharp, LLP (formerly known as Hamilton Accountancy Corporation) has assembled a team of top tax and accounting professionals to assist clients in reaching their financial and life goals. By applying our service team approach to client needs, we identify a course of action needed for financial, tax and life management success – our clients’ successes are our successes. Whether you are an entrepreneur with start-up issues, a professional athlete with multi-state tax returns to file, or a high net worth individual with wealth management concerns, we can select a team from our qualified staff to develop solutions for financial success and independence. With expertise in financial planning, estate and trust taxation, business entity taxation, multi-state taxation and complex individual taxation issues, our vision is to offer a complete service tailored to each client’s unique needs and goals. Every client receives the personal attention of a seasoned advisor who acts as the quarterback for the financial team and is dedicated to offering highly individualized and creative solutions. For a description of services provided by the team, please refer to the Services section.
In 1981, the company formed the Professional Athlete Services to address the unique tax and financial issues of professional athletes. By providing services that include residence analysis, contract negotiation support and multi-state taxation, this division now represents more than 100 athletes, former athletes and coaches in baseball, football, basketball and volleyball team sports. Additionally, the Professional Athlete Services provides litigation support and consulting services on multi-state and residence issues for professional athletes.
