Evan Alicakos, Payroll Services
1/12/06
Evan detailed for us how easy he makes it for his clients to use his services. There are clearly advantages of using a payroll service which include, tax related issues and, not to mention, the time it takes a business owner to resolve these issues. Using a payroll company, like Advanced Payroll Solutions, alleviates an owner of preparing payroll, making and paying tax payments and resolving tax issues on their own. APS is structured to provide this service at such a low cost that it may just surprise you. Thanks, Evan! |

Al Donohue, Residential Realtor
12/1/05
Let's look at a few numbers, shall we? The average listing time for a home in New Jersey is 79 days. The average time for an Al Donohue house is 19 days.
In New Jersey homes sell for an average of 97% of their final listing price, which itself is often lower than the original asking price. The average Al Donohue house? That sells for 99% of it's original listing price. The bottom line is that Al's dedication to cutting edge technology and marketing will make the single most important investment of your life a winning proposition.
As impressive as those numbers are they only tell part of the story. Al donates a portion of every commission he earns to help the fight against juvenile epilepsy, and is very active in the Ridgewood community.

Sean M. Bradley, Banker
11/17/05
Sean is the branch manager at the Columbia Bank in Ridgewood, and is the guy to go to for all your business financing needs. Since Sean is also a loan officer you don't have to worry that your application is going to pass through 15 middle-men and a mile of red tape. Also, Columbia Bank does not sell their loans in the secondary market, so if you borrow from Columbia you'll only ever have to pay Columbia. When you add in extended hours and universally praised friendly service, it doesn't make a whole lot of sense to do your banking anywhere else.

David K. Whitlock, Estate Planning Attorney
11/10/05
Not much point in talking to an estate planner while in the prime of your life, right? Wrong! No matter what your age, health or family situation everyone should have, at least, at will, a power of attorney and written medical directives. If the last few years have taught us nothing else they've taught us that youth and health are no defense against misfortune. Whom would you rather got your estate if the worst should happen... a person you've chosen or the IRS? Whom do you want making decisions about the sort of care you receive after a disabling accident?
Once you've decided to remove random chance from the equation and determine your own fate, go talk to Dave Whitlock. With a Masters Degree in tax law and 18 years of experience he is ideally suited to see you through the process of planning your estate.
