T.M. Byxbee CPAs Turns 100

In 1919, Theodore Michael Byxbee set out to develop a professional firm that would assist businesses and individuals in navigating the relatively new rules for complying with government regulations for tax reporting and compliance. His remarkable vision of innovation, professionalism and a highly competent team has been the foundation of the firm for 100 years. This vision and dedication to our clients has endured and evolved to the firm we are today, serving the entire Capital Region as a respected member of the community.

Our mission is to provide highly competent, timely, effective and efficient service to our clients. We develop a personalized, supportive relationship with our clients to assist them in the achievement of their goals. The financial well-being of our clients is our highest priority.

We are proud to celebrate 100 years of professional service to the clients and community, and proud to possess Certificate of Registration No. 1 from the NYS Education Department.

We have formed many professional alliances over the years which have led to the success of the firm. We are pleased to announce that we have formed a strategic alliance with the firm of Harvey W. Gordon, CPA. This alliance will contribute to our success of capitalizing on the talents of each individual, combined to formulate an even stronger team for the benefit of our clients. The Gordon firm vision and culture aligns closely with that of Byxbee, and will facilitate the attainment of collective goals.

As a general practice firm, we offer a wide variety of professional services. While some firms tout a “boutique” atmosphere for service, we feel very strongly that this general approach serves our clients best. Our reputation is built on strong client relationships and our commitment to honesty, integrity, and fairness. We operate as a group of talented individuals who can offer far more to our clients than they could as individuals; a group in which individuals stimulate excellence in one another. This professional and creative group takes great pride in its commitment to clients, combining technical expertise, complete services and a dedication to client needs. We view our role as much more than custodial and compliance experts. We are comprehensive advisors to our clients, and share a unique bond with them in the growth and development of their business or career, and at later stages, their transition to retirement.

We strongly recognize that a successful financial advisor’s role requires a knowledge of many matters that are highly personal in nature. We are proud to say that we have established relationships with clients that transcend the day to day government compliance issues and as such allow us to develop  a deeper understanding of client motivations and actions.

This close relationship allows us to formulate and implement well thought out plans with our clients. This is often the most important element of our services.

The regulatory and financial environment has changed enormously in the 100 years of our business existence. Tax and financial reporting are extremely complex and our expertise and business technologies have of course kept pace with those changes. The essential core of our business – the strong relationship with our client – is the same.
