Trusted across industries, anchored in the care economy.
HAR began with Minnesota's DHS-licensed care providers in 2006, and that work remains the deepest part of our practice. Today we serve businesses across every industry: restaurants, contractors, retailers, real estate operators, transportation companies, professional services firms, and nonprofits across Minnesota and Wisconsin. The standards that built our care practice apply to every operator we work with.

Approach
What HAR is, and what HAR is not.
We are a working firm, not a referral network. Engagements run through our own staff, in our own office, on systems we control. That is the standard our clients have relied on since 2006, and it is the standard we hold today.
I.
Specialty discipline, applied broadly.
Our practice grew out of the care economy, where compliance and precision matter most. We bring that same discipline to every business we serve, regardless of industry.
II.
Continuity over churn.
The longest client relationships at HAR run more than a decade. The same staff handle the same books year after year, which is how reconciliations stay clean and how problems get caught early.
III.
Owner-operator culture.
HAR is privately held and operator-led. Decisions about how clients are served are made in the same office where the work gets done.

What operators say about working with HAR.
We have been thrilled to work with HAR for over a decade. Their accuracy and efficiency in managing our finances and payroll are top-notch, and their tailored solutions have significantly eased our administrative tasks.

I have worked with HAR for the past eight years. Their team handles payroll, IRS matters, and state payments with accuracy. When issues come up, they move fast and provide clear solutions. This support has saved me time and prevented costly mistakes.
Safi Khalif
Payroll, IRS, and Accounting · 8 Year Client
I have worked with a lot of accountants and HAR is genuinely different. They don't just hand you a number at year-end, they actually understand your business and help you plan around it. By the time tax season came, I was shocked at where I landed compared to previous years.

From the founder
"Twenty years in, the work has not changed in its essentials. Get the books right. File on time. Take the call when something goes wrong. The clients who hire us once tend to stay because that standard does not change."
