Accountants for the South Bay

El Segundo to San Pedro: technology and media, manufacturing and distribution, port logistics, healthcare and professional practices.

Book a scoping call Request a proposal

The South Bay is not one economy. El Segundo is corporate offices, technology and media. Torrance and Gardena are manufacturing and distribution. Carson and Wilmington run on port logistics: the ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach together handle roughly 40% of the nation's containerised cargo. The beach cities are professional practices, small businesses, retail and restaurants.

What they share is a shortage of accounting firms doing close, CFO and audit preparation work for organisations of this size. Our office is at 1500 Rosecrans Avenue in Manhattan Beach, in the middle of it.

I’ve had a great experience with this WAGOPOP. They offer a full range of services, including account controller support, sales tax management, accurate bookkeeping, and reliable payroll services. The team is professional, responsive, and truly understands the needs of small businesses. I highly recommend them for anyone looking for dependable and comprehensive accounting solutions.

Common questions

Not answered here? Ask us directly: we would rather explain it than have you guess.

Do you cover the whole South Bay?

Yes. El Segundo, Manhattan Beach, Hermosa Beach, Redondo Beach, Torrance, Gardena, Carson, Hawthorne, Lawndale, San Pedro and Inglewood. Our office is in Manhattan Beach, and we also travel to clients across the area.

We are in Long Beach. Is that too far?

Not necessarily. Our focus is the South Bay and the Westside, but audit preparation and CFO work is largely remote with on-site visits as the engagement requires. Call and describe what you need. If we are not the right fit we will say so.

Do you have an office we can visit?

Yes. Our office is at 1500 Rosecrans Avenue, Manhattan Beach, and meetings there are by appointment. We are also glad to come to you, which is often the more practical arrangement during a close or while preparing for an audit.

How do we start?

Book a scoping call using the form on this page, or call us. We will ask what you need, who is asking you for it, and what condition your records are in, then tell you what the engagement involves and what it will cost before anything begins.
