When I started Katreana Hughes Accountants 30 years ago, I was passionate about helping people get their tax right the first time, built on the belief that we’re in the people business—not just the numbers business. And frankly, I was sick of people paying too much tax due to poor advice.
After three decades in practice, I found myself having increasingly sophisticated conversations with my clients. They weren’t just asking about minimizing this year’s tax—they were asking the biggest and most fundamental questions: “How do I protect this?” “How do I protect my children from themselves, so they don’t lose it all?” “How do wealthy families keep their money for generations?”
This shift led me to become an accredited Succession, Asset Protection and Estate Planning Advanced advisor (SAPEPAA), specializing in the sophisticated structures that wealthy families have used for generations. ( Many of you have already heard the story.)
Not because I wanted more letters after my name, but because my clients (YOU) deserve access to the same sophisticated wealth protection strategies that the ultra-wealthy have been using for centuries.
After 30 years of practice, I am not content with just helping you manage your taxes. I want to help you build lasting legacies. I’m not just your accountant anymore—I’m your family’s wealth strategist, taking the complexity out of generational wealth planning.
I have spoken to many of you over this journey and my passion and fire on this subject radiates.
