Virginia · Trusted Advisory & Accounting
A trusted advisor first. An accountant second.
From tax planning to long-term business guidance, GRS helps Virginia organizations and professionals navigate financial decisions with clarity, trust, and proactive support.
Relationships over transactions
Most clients stay with us for years — because the relationship matters more than the return.
Proactive over reactive
Year-round guidance, planning, and check-ins — not a once-a-year scramble.
Honest, connected counsel

Owner-operators navigating growth, hiring, financing, and the financial complexity that comes with scaling a real business.

The GRS difference
The strongest accounting relationships are built on trust.
"If I can't help you, I know someone who can."
Our clients don't come to us for forms. They come for judgment, perspective, and a partner who answers the phone. After decades advising Virginia businesses, healthcare practices, and nonprofits, our reputation is built on three things: relationships, referrals, and being genuinely useful.
Accessible
Direct access to Mark and the team — not a switchboard.
Long-term
We invest in clients who plan to be in business for decades.
Connected
A network of attorneys, bankers, and specialists when you need one.
Proactive
We surface decisions early — before they become problems.
A modern advisory experience
Organized. Personal. Built for the long term.
Working with GRS feels less like hiring a tax preparer and more like adding a financial partner to your team — calm, structured, and always one conversation away.
01
Discovery
We start with a real conversation — your business, your goals, the questions you've been carrying.
02
Planning
A clear, written plan: tax position, reporting cadence, and the financial decisions ahead.
03
Guidance
Year-round access to Mark and the team — quarterly reviews, planning conversations, and proactive recommendations.
04
Ongoing Support
Monthly close, recurring check-ins, and a relationship that compounds in value over time.
Healthcare specialization
A trusted advisor for Virginia healthcare practices.
Healthcare doesn't run on a normal calendar. Reimbursement cycles, payroll complexity, and partner economics demand an accountant who already speaks the language — and who stays close to the practice all year long.
We work with physician groups, dental practices, specialized clinics, and the professionals who lead them.
What we focus on
- Operational complexity & multi-entity structures
- Cash flow planning across reimbursement cycles
- Payroll, partner comp, and physician productivity models
- Tax strategy that follows clinical and business growth
- Financing, expansion, and acquisition advisory
- Year-round access — not just at filing time
"Healthcare clients don't need another vendor. They need a partner who already understands the business." — Mark Baird, CPA
Working together
We make working with your accountant feel easier.
Modern tools, organized workflows, and a calm cadence — so the relationship feels high-touch without feeling high-friction.
Digital onboarding
Get started in a few clicks — secure document collection, no paper shuffling.
Secure communication
Encrypted exchange of documents, statements, and signatures — built into the relationship.
Recurring check-ins
Quarterly reviews and planning conversations on the calendar — not crammed into March.
Proactive reminders
We surface deadlines, decisions, and opportunities before they become urgent.
Trust & relationships
The people who work with us tend to stay.
Our growth has been built almost entirely on referrals — clients sending us the people they trust most. That's the only kind of growth that matters to us.
Mark is the first call I make on any major business decision. He's an accountant by license, but a true advisor in practice.
Daniel R.
Owner, Multi-Location Healthcare Practice
GRS treats our nonprofit like the mission matters as much as the math. We've never felt like a line item.
Marissa H.
Executive Director, Virginia Nonprofit
When we needed an attorney, a banker, and a payroll partner, Mark connected us to all three. That kind of network is rare.
