We're Here to Help Your Florida Business Succeed.
Ghira Group isn't a faceless national chain. We are a local firm in Lecanto, dedicated to giving Florida small business owners the expert guidance they need to build, grow, and stay compliant.
Our Story: From Big 4 to Main Street
Our founder began his career at a "Big 4" accounting firm, advising massive, multi-million dollar corporations on complex tax strategies.
He saw that while the largest companies had access to the best advice, small business owners and startups were left with two bad options: expensive, old-fashioned firms or cheap, impersonal filing websites that offer no guidance.
Ghira Group was founded to fix that problem.
We created a new model. We took the high-level expertise of a major CPA firm and combined it with the personal, local service that Florida business owners deserve.
We believe every new entrepreneur—whether you're a home-based business in Citrus County or a startup in Ocala—deserves the same expert guidance as a Fortune 500 company.
Our Guiding Principles
1. Proactive Strategy
We don't just record history; we help you build a better future. We're year-round, proactive partners who look for savings opportunities, not just seasonal preparers who file a return.
3. Total Clarity
We translate complex tax and compliance rules into plain English. You will always understand your numbers and the "why" behind our advice, so you can make decisions with confidence.
2. Expert Quality
​
Every new business owner deserves "Big 4" quality. All our tax strategies and final returns are reviewed by a Certified Public Accountant (CPA) to ensure you get maximum accuracy.
4. Local Service
We're your neighbors. When you call our Lecanto office, you're talking to a local expert who understands your community—not a 1-800 number and a call center queue.

We combine "Big 4" expertise with the personal service of a local firm.
