About Tiernan & Associates LLC

Picture of Jody and Tom Thomas Tiernan, the owner and founder of Tiernan and Associates LLC, and his son Jody Tiernan, E.A.*, have created an ever growing income tax business. The business was created over 25 years ago and continues to prosper. The beginning was quite a humble one. The original office was a small, third bedroom which had been converted into an office. The business continued to grow until the entire house became a tax office. In 1994, we moved the office into a 7,600 square foot, 2 story, office building. This office space will allow us to continue to grow for years to come. Map of our location Effective Feb 1, 2006, Jody Tiernan, E. A.*, has taken over as the owner of Tiernan & Associates LLC.  Tom will still be an active part of the business, as he works toward retiring after a long and very successful career as the founder of the business. Jody very recently qualified and earned the designation of Enrolled Agent (E.A.).

During our years of business, our staff has completed thousands of income tax returns. This past tax year, 2006, we completed over 3,000 tax returns. We hope to continue to increase that amount by traveling throughout the country and meeting as many people as possible. Here is a special letter from Jody Tiernan, EA, the company owner.

Our mission is to provide the best quality service to our clients, and prospective clients, through communication, sound advice, and timely response.

At Tiernan & Associates, our main emphasis is on people with home-based businesses. There are not many other companies that will spend as much time working with their clients as we do.

Our goal is to provide a cost-effective tax preparation service. We can assist you in solving your tax problems. Our philosophy of "preventive taxation" is what distinguishes us from other services and practitioners. This means that a tax return should not be viewed as a single, isolated occurrence. Instead, it should be an integral part of a business' or individuals' financial picture. How well you keep your books and manage your taxes, today, will determine the profitability of your business in the years to come. Although you may not be thinking about it now, incorrect returns, non-filing, or simple bookkeeping errors open the door for the IRS to audit you or your business. We want to keep the taxman from knocking on your door. Our friendly, knowledgeable professionals are ready, year-round, to serve you with expert advice and assistance in the preparation of your tax returns. Our tax specialists are well-informed on the continuing changes in tax laws, and are able to prepare returns for residents of all 50 states.

Map & Directions

From the South: On State Route 48 (Main Street), you will pass through Englewood. The next village is Union. About two blocks past the traffic light in the center of town (at Martindale Rd.), you will pass, on the left side of the street, the Toll House Tavern and the Union Depot Drive Thru. We are in the next building.

From the North: On State Route 48 (Main Street) you will pass through West Milton. Just after you pass the traffic light at Phillipsburg-Union Road, the next village is Union. About three tenths of a mile past the light, our building is the first commercial building on the right, just after the residential section. If you pass the Union Depot Drive Thru, the Toll House Tavern, or the second traffic light in town, then you have gone too far.

Our building is a two-story office building, brick at the bottom and vinyl siding at the top. There is a sign near the sidewalk with our name and address.

When coming to our office, be sure to start early enough to allow for traffic, accidents, road work, etc., so that you will arrive on time, or early, for your appointment.
