Carpenter & Langford

At Carpenter and Langford, P.C., we feel that we're not just in the accounting business -- we're in the relationship business. In our field, trust is everything, and the lasting client relationships we've built and cultivated among both clients and staff have enabled us to thrive for more than two decades. Our focus on personalized, specialized service sets us apart, while our emphasis on effective communication and quality work helps us maintain an exceptionally high level of client satisfaction. Carpenter and Langford, P.C. was established in 1991 by Jean Carpenter-Backus, CPA and Joe Langford, CPA with the aim of providing both the quality service associated with national firms and the close client relationships expected from a local firm. We´ve enjoyed steady growth since we first opened our doors, and in 1999 we added an additional partner, James T. Ragland, CPA. Another partner, Kevin Lenahan, CPA, was added at the end of 2009 when Jean decided to significantly shift the emphasis of her work. Carpenter and Langford, P.C.´s partners and clients also benefit greatly from the talents of its professional and paraprofessional staff, many of whom have years of experience. While our firm continues to be a leading provider of expert tax planning and preparation services to both individuals and corporations, wee also provide business consulting services, bookkeeping services, audit, compilation, and IRS representation.
