The biggest little accounting firm in Santa Cruz — trusted by businesses, individuals, and non-profits along the California coast for nearly nine decades.
We are a local CPA firm trusted by businesses, individuals, and non-profits in Santa Cruz since 1938. From founding family-run enterprises to today’s most ambitious operators, we have served as the steady hand behind the planning, reporting, and decisions that shape long-term legacies.
Our practice is intentionally personal. Clients work directly with seasoned partners and the same dedicated team, year after year — a level of continuity rarely found at firms of any size.
From the everyday rigor of compliance to the strategy behind a lifetime of decisions, we offer the full breadth of services a modern practice demands — delivered with the care of a private office.
Preparation and planning for individuals, families, businesses, trusts, estates, and non-profits — precise, on time, audit-ready.
Long-horizon strategy for wealth, retirement, real estate, and the major decisions of a lifetime.
Bookkeeping, payroll, and accounting systems engineered for clarity and control as your enterprise grows.
Advanced statements and reporting for owners, boards, and non-profits who need the full picture in a glance.
The counsel behind the numbers — entity selection, succession, transactions, and the moments that matter.
Continuity matters. The names below answer the phone, sign the returns, and sit across the table from you each year.
PMJ is absolutely professional in all ways. The entire staff are absolute wizards at producing on time and with great accuracy. The real gem of this organization, though, is their ability to do advanced strategic planning and counseling. We’re completely pleased in all aspects, and would (and have!) recommended their services to our business peers without reservation.
