Not your typical accounting firm.

LWS Tax & Accounting Services was founded by Blake Shaffer in 2008 with the vision of making taxes and accounting less intimidating and more approachable. From our earliest days, LWS has been driven by resourcefulness and a forward-thinking attitude, creating a unique culture that has defined our firm’s journey.

The name LWS holds a special place for the firm. LWS stands for Landon William Shaffer, Blake's son, who was a source of inspiration from the moment he was born. Landon lived a remarkable life, defying the limitations of Menkes Disease, a genetic disorder he was born with. His strength, resilience, and impact on those around him became the guiding light for the firm. Landon passed away in 2022, but his legacy lives on forever in LWS. He is a constant reminder of the power of perseverance and the potential to make a significant impact on the lives around us.

LWS began as a small, local business and has grown into one of the most respected accounting firms in the area, with a client base that spans across the United States. LWS has become known not only for its professional expertise but also for challenging the typical image of an accounting firm. Our approach aims to make taxes and accounting less stressful—and maybe even a little enjoyable—for our clients, showing that these services don’t have to be complicated or intimidating.

LWS has a passionate team of skilled professionals who bring their knowledge, dedication, and refreshing energy to every client interaction. Our team has helped turn LWS into more than just an accounting service, it’s an experience. Whether guiding individuals through tax season or helping businesses with their accounting needs, LWS is committed to a standard of service that is both exceptional and approachable.

Whether you're an individual seeking tax services or a business owner in need of accounting support, LWS is here for you. Embrace the LWS experience, and let us show you how we combine expertise, creativity, and a touch of fun to make your accounting journey enjoyable and rewarding.
