Duane S. Culver, CPA
I can help you reduce your tax liabilities to the lowest allowable levels and ensure your compliance with all U.S. and Michigan tax codes.
In the Family Tradition
Following in my father's footsteps, I wanted to help people and businesses with their finances so I began preparing tax returns in 1988. I continue to learn and update my skills and knowledge for the betterment of those I help. My key to success is to work hard and do what I say I am going to do.
The Role of Education
Education plays a big role in being able to provide leading-edge guidance to my clients. I earned my Master's Degree in Taxation, which was necessary to provide expert, up-to-date tax strategies for my clients.
