Allen R. Reyburn

As Decker, Farrell & McCoy’s tax manager, Allen is the firm’s primary tax technical resource. After developing a strong background in accounting and auditing, Allen transitioned to the field of taxation. He received a Master of Business Taxation from USC and has had extensive broad-based tax experience with local and regional public accounting firms in California and Illinois.

By working primarily with small to mid-market businesses in a variety of industries and avoiding specialization throughout his career, Allen has been able to remain a tax generalist who can assist business clients with a wide variety of tax scenarios and related planning opportunities. Also, by being involved with individual tax issues relevant to business owners, as well as other individual clients ranging from retirees on fixed incomes to ultra-high-net -worth investors, Allen can draw upon thousands of experiences to help answer questions and provide pertinent insight and perspective into the often unexpected complexity of individual tax returns.
