Overview
About our office
Little Rock is a market where relationships matter and where business owners remember who showed up for them during a difficult year. Jim, Joseph, Mark, and Daniel built BRC around that kind of practice, the kind where clients come back not because they're locked in, but because the service is actually good. Arkansas has a strong small business culture, and this team has spent years earning a place in it.

Audit
An audit is the highest level of financial assurance available, and the one lenders, investors, and regulators trust most. Archer Lewis conducts audits that are thorough, accurate, and delivered on time.

10
Employee Benefit Plan Audits
Once your 401(k) or benefit plan reaches 100 eligible participants, federal law requires an independent audit. Archer Lewis handles employee benefit plan audits for plan sponsors who need accurate, DOL-compliant work delivered on time.

11
Review
A review provides meaningful independent assurance without the full scope of an audit, the right choice when your stakeholders need more than a compilation but an audit would be more than the situation requires.
Learn more → -
12

Estate, Trust, & Gift Planning
What you've built deserves a plan for what happens to it. Archer Lewis structures estate, trust, and gift strategies that keep more with the people you intend, and less with the IRS.

Financial & Income Tax Planning
Personal income tax for high-net-worth individuals isn't just a return: it's a year-round strategy. Archer Lewis integrates your income, investments, and business interests into a single tax-efficient plan.

Succession & Transfer Planning
How your business or wealth transfers, to family, a partner, or a buyer, is one of the most consequential decisions you'll make. Archer Lewis builds succession plans that protect your value and give you control over what happens next.
