About Manzana Financial Services

A tax practice built around one simple idea.

You shouldn’t have to face the IRS or IDOR by yourself. We make sure you don’t.

Why this practice exists

For most people, a letter from the IRS or IDOR might as well be in another language. The deadlines, the penalties, the forms with numbers for names. It is a lot to deal with, and most people have no one to call.

Manzana exists to be that call. We read the letters, explain what they actually mean, and do the work carefully. We stand between you and the parts of the tax system that feel built to trip you up. Every return and every notice gets handled like it is our own.

Our Approach

How we work

By appointment, always

You get real time set aside for your situation, not a slot in an assembly line.

In plain language

We explain what is happening in words that make sense, so you understand your own taxes.

Carefully, the first time

Every return, statement, and filing is prepared to hold up if anyone ever looks closely.

Around all year

Tax questions don’t keep a schedule. When something comes up in the summer, you can still call.


We speak the language of the IRS and IDOR, so you don’t have to.

Who we work with

We work with individuals and with small businesses, whether that is a simple personal return or a company juggling payroll, licensing, and the rest. Most of our clients are around Chicagoland, and we also work with people in about a dozen states.
