Always in reach
Call, text, email or Zoom as often as you need. Clients are never billed for a phone call or a consultation, so you can ask before you decide instead of paying to fix it after.
Accounting, tax & legal since 1981
Bookkeeping, proactive tax, payroll, CFO advice and an in-house attorney, planned together by one team that picks up the phone and doesn’t bill you when you call.
Since 1981
Ted Hallows opened the firm to give small businesses and farm families in Central Utah a full-service partner close to home. Four decades on, the deal is the same: you run the business, we run everything behind it.
Clients never pay to call us. We review your financial statements every quarter, plan your taxes at mid-year and again before year end, and keep the same people on your account. That’s most of the secret.
The difference
Most firms see you once a year, at tax time. Here’s what changes when your accountant sits on your side of the table.
| Topic | A traditional accountant | Hallows & Co |
|---|---|---|
| Taxes | Prepares your return once a year | Works with you all year to reduce what you owe |
| Advice | Hands you a stack of reports | Tells you what the numbers mean and what to do next |
| Time | Gives you the hour you paid for | Gives you the time you need. Client calls are free. |
| Legal | Refers you out, by the hour | Plans it with your CPA, with an in-house attorney |
| The long game | Stops at the tax return | Decades of experience building retirement plans |
Services
One team covers the whole back office, so nothing falls between the bookkeeper, the CPA and the attorney.
Books categorized and reconciled monthly by a dedicated bookkeeper on our team, never offshore.
Tax planning at mid-year and again in October and November, while there is still time to lower the bill.
Forecasts, budgets and cash-flow analysis, and CFO-level thinking for big calls without a full-time hire.
An in-house attorney for contracts, entities, HR and estate plans. Quick questions carry no hourly fee.
Full-service payroll, bill pay and sales tax, handled by the same people who already know your books.
Retirement, estate and agricultural planning for your family through our sister firm, Hallows Financial.
“As a new restaurant owner years ago, I was drowning. I needed an accounting firm I could trust… Hallows provides all of that and more! The best part is they treat me like family and have my back as a business owner.”
“We have worked with Lillian for the past couple of years doing our taxes. She’s professional, knowledgeable, and very accommodating.”
“I don’t know what I would do without this company! Had major issues with my tax returns. The whole team has always been helpful, responded on time and always fixed my issues.”
“Hallows has always been available for me to call and ask questions. I have also never had an issue with my tax returns.”
“Lillian was of great help and had great concern for helping me understand all details.”
“Service was spectacular! They answered my unending list of questions with patience & professionalism and asked pertinent questions for items I had forgotten about.”
How we work

Call, text, email or Zoom as often as you need. Clients are never billed for a phone call or a consultation, so you can ask before you decide instead of paying to fix it after.

Applying for financing? Tell us the lender. We send them the statements and returns they ask for directly, often within a couple of business days and many times within hours. You stay out of the middle.

Your bookkeeper, CPA, CFO and attorney plan together, so tax and legal decisions are made with the whole picture and you stop carrying messages between offices.
