What we do

Thirteen services, four kinds of problems. Whether you need your books kept straight, your tax filed correctly, or a plan for what happens when you sell the business — this is where each service fits.

Tax

Filing correctly, and planning ahead so there are fewer surprises.

Corporate & personal tax

Preparation and filing for your company and your personal return, coordinated so one doesn't create a problem for the other.

Tax planning & consulting

Structuring income, compensation, and transactions ahead of time to legally reduce what you owe — not just reporting after the fact.

Accounting & bookkeeping

The ongoing record-keeping that everything else depends on.

Bookkeeping

Day-to-day recording of income, expenses, and reconciliations, kept current so you always know where you stand.

Accounting & financial reporting

Turning your bookkeeping into accurate financial records that meet the standards lenders, investors, and regulators expect.

Financial statements

Compiled, review, or audit-level statements prepared to the standard your bank, shareholders, or the CRA require.

Growth & transactions

Support at the specific moments when a business changes hands or changes shape.

Business startup

Choosing the right structure, registering the entity, and setting up accounting systems correctly from day one.

Business valuations

An independent, defensible estimate of what a business is worth — for a sale, a dispute, a divorce, or a shareholder buyout.

Purchase & sale of business

Financial due diligence and deal structuring so you understand exactly what you're buying or giving up before you sign.

Bank financing

Preparing the financial package and projections lenders ask for, and presenting your business in the best possible light.

Advisory & planning

Longer-range thinking about where the business, and your estate, are headed.

Management consulting

Practical advice on the operational and financial decisions behind the scenes — pricing, margins, staffing, systems.

Financial consulting

A clear read on your financial position and options, when you need an outside, numbers-first opinion.

Strategic planning

Turning a business goal into a financial plan with the milestones and numbers to check it's actually working.

Estate & succession planning

Planning who takes over the business, or the wealth, and structuring it to minimize tax and avoid disputes later.

Why Odyssey

The philosophy behind the services, in plain terms.

Every client is a partner

We measure our success by yours. That means advice suited to your actual situation, not a generic checklist.

Close, personal attention

You work directly with people who know your file — not a rotating queue of unfamiliar contacts.

Technical depth, kept current

Ongoing professional education means the advice you get reflects current tax rules and standards, not last decade's.

Modern tools, real networks

Current technology and established business connections, put to work for practical outcomes rather than shown off for their own sake.
