Fairfax, Virginia

Your books and your return, handled by the same people.

No handoffs, no reconciling someone else's work in March. One team carries your business from the general ledger straight through to the filed return.

Back office

Hand us the paperwork. Go run your business.

Bookkeeping, payroll, reconciliations, and financial statements — closed on schedule every month so you always know where you stand.

Tax planning

The best tax decisions get made in October, not April.

By filing season, most of your options have closed. We start the conversation while there's still room to change the number on the bottom line.

What we do

A full range of accounting and tax services.

Brilliance ACTS serves small and mid-sized businesses across Northern Virginia — and their owners, whose personal returns are rarely simple.

Tax Preparation & Planning

Federal and state returns for S corporations, partnerships, C corporations, and individuals — prepared, reviewed, and planned for year-round.

Accounting & Bookkeeping

Monthly books that close on time, reconcile cleanly, and produce financial statements you can actually make decisions from.

Learn more →

Payroll & QuickBooks

Payroll setup and administration, plus QuickBooks configuration, cleanup, and training from a certified ProAdvisor.

Learn more →

IRS & State Notices

A letter from the IRS is not an emergency. We read it, tell you what it actually means, and handle the response on your behalf.

What sets us apart

Small enough to know your name.

You'll work with the person who prepares your return, not whoever happens to answer the phone. That's the whole reason we've stayed the size we are.

Brilliance ACTS is based in Fairfax and serves clients across Fairfax, Loudoun, Arlington, Prince William, and the wider Northern Virginia region — as well as remotely, well beyond it.

Talk to us
  • 01

    One team, ledger to return

    The people who close your books prepare your return. Nothing gets lost in translation between two firms.

  • 02

    We start before the deadline

    Entity elections, distributions, and equipment purchases all have windows. We raise them while the windows are still open.

  • 03

    Answers in plain language

    You'll get the reasoning behind a position in terms you can act on — not a code section and a shrug.

  • 04

    Specialty work stays in house

    Medicare cost reports and other niche filings are handled here, not referred out to a third party.

Ready to stop worrying about the books?

Tell us where things stand — even if that's "I haven't filed in two years." We've seen it, and there's a way forward.

Healthcare

Medical & Dental Practices

Entity structure, owner compensation, and equipment planning for clinical practices.

Commerce

Retail & E-Commerce

Inventory accounting, multi-state sales tax, and reporting across locations and channels.

Agent and investor returns, depreciation strategy, and passive activity rules.

Mission

Nonprofit Organizations

Form 990 preparation, restricted fund tracking, and board-ready financial reporting.

Pay what you owe. Not a dollar more.

Most small businesses overpay because nobody looked at the structure. Let us show you what a second set of eyes turns up.
