Jones & Associates has been located in Lexington since 1996. Managing Partner Dr. Judy Jones is a longtime Lexington resident.

Her main area of focus has been nonprofit and governmental accounting. She has also taught auditing and every course offered by the University in accounting. Audit and Tax Manager, Laura E.

The firm’s system of quality control is based on the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA) quality control standards. Jones says, “We have always achieved a high standard of quality as evidenced by our peer review results.”

 

Jones & AssociatesThree Tips from Jones and Associates when filing your 2020 taxes:
  1. Filing your taxes as soon as you are able will decrease the chances of someone fraudulently filing your taxes for you.
  2. An extension to file is not an extension to pay. Taxes are due April 15th, regardless of whether you file your taxes or not.
  3. If you owe, you might consider adjusting your withholdings to decrease the possibility of owing in the future.
