About Us

We Make Complex Tax Issues Make Sense

Complex tax and accounting problems don’t scare us. We break them down, clean them up, and turn them into profitable strategies that actually work in the real world.

At James Wilder & Associates LLC, we turn complicated tax and accounting challenges into clear, profitable strategies — without the jargon, confusion, or guesswork.

Section 280E Cannabis Tax Expertise

Whether you’re a cannabis CEO navigating the strict limits of Section 280E, we create tailor-made solutions that protect your bottom line and give you a competitive edge.

We don’t do cookie-cutter approaches. We take the time to understand the regulatory pressures of cannabis compliance and build proactive, numbers-driven strategies that keep you ahead.

Strategic Business Advisory

From multi-state tax complexities to fast-changing industry dynamics, we create solutions for business leaders who need more than basic accounting.

Our team delivers dynamic, legal, and innovative strategies tailored to your unique situation — reducing your tax liability substantially while you focus on growing your business.

CFO Advisory Services

A great CFO doesn’t just manage numbers — they pinpoint challenges clearly and map out detailed, actionable steps that drive fast, effective solutions.

We apply “lean thinking” to focus on the activities that add the most value to your business. Enjoy peace of mind knowing your financials are accurate and up-to-date each month.

We make sure all transactions are recorded promptly and classified correctly so you capture every possible tax deduction and opportunity. Our mission is the same: help you maximize after-tax income and keep the Federal government from taking more than its fair share.

Client Testimonials

“The service was excellent. It fits our needs perfectly. If you aren’t sure, always go for accounting services. Accounting services is great.”

- Lucienne N.

“Working with Wilder & Associates really saved me time and effort so that I can focus on other areas in my business. The “common sense” approach to their accounting services is exactly what our business has been lacking. Their accounting services was worth much more than I paid. Tremendous value!.”

- Abner .

“It was very easy to work with you and your team this year. Before your service, my business was drowning in IRS taxes. Our previous CPA was more expensive and didn’t cover all the allowable deductions our business qualified for. Therefore, we were unable to reinvest money back into our business. With your team working on our business monthly accounting and tax returns, to include the new tax strategies that your team provided to us, we are now finally able to have more cash flow to reinvest in our business. Mr. Grinner and your team transparent communication made it easy to submit documents, do messaging, and take advantage of the tax deductions so my business wouldn’t owe taxes like we did last year. You definitely have a customer for life! Looking forward to seeing what next year brings! Thanks for saving our business money.”

- Kristin & Bill .

“As a small business, sometimes we weren’t sure if we were able to have an accounting firm provide us advice on how we can save money. Most companies wanted businesses to have a certain amount of revenue before taking us seriously. We are so fortunate to have found Wilder & Associates LLC! It was simple, told them our goals for the business and they took it from there. Long story short, we were able to save $15,984 in taxes this year without changing one single thing in our business. The tax strategies that they provided us was so detailed, it was easy to implement; they went above and beyond! We will most definitely refer you to other business partners. Thank you so much James!”

- Craig

“James was an impeccable advisor and tax preparer over the last two years. He has given us honest facts and he as very informative during our time of working with him. He made himself available at all times when we had questions and never made us feel alone. I would advise anyone with their personal tax, or if you have a new or small business to contact James and allow him to assist you. He finds errors if those tax places have made some. He knows it all!! We would not have anyone else do our taxes moving forward. Thanks James. See you next year!!!”

- Nikendra & Denise
