A legacy like no other
Our firm was founded by Tim Kohler in 2000. Tim, a Bensalem native, is a tax return preparer and accountant who graduated from Widener University. Today he manages the firm with his brother Bill. Together, they continue to provide exceptional expertise and service to their clients in Bucks County and beyond.
“Since its original inception in 1984, our father Thomas Kohler Jr. envisioned a place where people could receive the best possible income tax preparation service in the greater Philadelphia area. Today, we honor his legacy and provide our clients with the highest level of service on a daily basis.”

In memoriam
In 2014, we lost our founding partners and parents, Tom and Ruthe Kohler. They were partners in life and business and we will always be indebted to them for having the patience to teach us and for laying the groundwork for the Kohler tax and accounting business. We miss them dearly.
