New businesses, S-corps & real estate · Columbia, LA 71418
Start the company right. Then keep more of what you earn.
Daniel Robinson CPA, LLC specializes in new businesses — forming the LLC, registering with local and state authorities, writing the business plan, and standing up the books, payroll, and tax calendar from day one. After that, we stay with you: S-corps, rentals, and year-round planning for owners in Columbia, Caldwell Parish, and North Louisiana.
Lower taxes
Year-round reduction planning — entity, compensation, rentals, and timing — not a scramble in March.
Saved time
We take the books, payroll, and filings so you can run the crew, the shop, or the properties.
Stay compliant
Returns, estimates, and payroll that match the facts. Fewer letters. Fewer surprises.
A core specialty
We specialize in new businesses.
Starting a company is more than a Secretary of State filing. We take you from the first conversation through a Louisiana LLC (or the entity that actually fits), local and state registration, a written business plan, and the books, payroll, and tax setup that should exist on opening day.
- LLC and entity formation, operating agreements, and EIN
- Registration with local and state authorities
- Business plans and startup projections you can take to a bank
- First-year books, payroll, licenses, and a tax calendar
Does your CPA specialize in this?
S-corps, rentals, and closely held businesses — not a stack of 1040s at a folding table.
If your current preparer files the forms and disappears until next April, you are leaving money on the table and taking risk you cannot see. We stay in it: books, payroll, estimates, and a plan you can execute.
- New LLC formation and Louisiana registration
- Business plans written for a bank, a partner, or you
- S-corp reasonable compensation and payroll
- Rental real estate and passive-loss reporting
- Catch-up bookkeeping when the QuickBooks file is a mess
- One office in Columbia — not a call center

S-corp setup & cleanup
We’ll advise you on the right entity — then set it up so payroll matches the plan.
Forming an S-corp is not the win. Running it is: reasonable wages, timely deposits, basis tracking, and distributions that don’t create a problem two years later. That is ordinary work in this office.
Who we help
Questions owners actually ask
Yes. New-business work is a core part of the practice: LLC and entity formation, registration with local and state authorities, business plans, EINs, books, and a first-year tax calendar. We do not hand you a form and disappear.
