Schedule Tax Intro LI
Get your taxes prepared and a real tax strategy for your equity comp.
RSUs vesting. ISOs expiring. ESPP shares sitting there. Most tax pros file your return. We help you file and we’ll help you plan around it. Proactive strategy for complex, equity-compensated households.
the problem
Your tax situation isn't simple, your tax advisor should reflect that.
Tech professionals face a different level of complexity. Generic tax software and generalist CPAs weren’t built for it.
what we do
More than tax preparation.
Proactive planning.
We prepare your return accurately and work with you throughout the year on the decisions that actually change your tax outcome.
WHY I STARTED THIS PRACTICE
My clients needed more than basic tax prep.
I’m Peter Donisanu, an IRS Registered Tax Return Preparer with 6 years working with tech professionals on equity compensation and tax planning.
I started this firm after seeing the same frustrations come up again and again. Clients with complex equity comp situations were struggling to find a qualified preparer who could handle their return well and actually engage with them, not treat them like one number in a high-volume process.
In many cases, my clients were also paying extra for tax strategy and not receiving it. Sure, their return would get filed, the fee would get charged, but the real planning conversations still weren’t happening, or they happened at a very basic level (adjust your W4).
That responsibility kept falling back on me and my clients. That’s when I decided to build something better, for a client base that deserved more.
Franklin Madison Tax Solutions is what I built to close that gap, more hands-on, more specific, and more forward-looking than what most equity-compensated professionals have been settling for.

Tax Strategy That Protects Your Wealth, Not Just Your Return
Most firms treat taxes as a once-a-year filing task. We treat taxes as a year-round decision system that helps you keep more of what you earn, protect what you’ve built, and avoid expensive surprises.
Our Tax Solutions are built for clients who understand one decision can change your wealth outcome.
We’re a fit if you are:
- A retiree or near-retiree who wants a proactive tax plan for withdrawals, Roth conversions, RMDs, and Medicare-related tax traps
- A tech professional with equity compensation (RSUs/options) who needs decision modeling, not generic advice
- A business owner who wants proactive planning throughout the year, not reactive filing after the fact
You don’t have a tax problem. You have a decision problem.
The biggest tax savings rarely come from finding a new deduction in March. They come from making a handful of major decisions the right way:
- When to realize income (or defer it)
- How to complete Roth conversions, minimize RMDs, coordinate with Medicare and Social Security
- How to handle equity compensation events without regret
- How to structure business income and quarterly estimates intelligently
- How to time charitable giving and capital gains
Our job is to help you make those decisions with confidence, then file returns that reflect the strategy.
We have several tax solutions available to suit your unique needs:
- Option 1: when all you need is a tax return prepared
- Option 2: best for steady years (plan + two checkpoints)
- Option 3: best for decision-heavy years (quarterly + modeling as events happen)
- Option 4: best for business owners (entity + personal strategy under one roof)

This option includes:

- Secure upload portal + organizer
- Clarifying questions needed to complete the return
- Delivered copy of filed returns + e-file confirmations
*Pricing increases based on complexity (multi-state, K-1s, significant equity activity, multiple brokerage statements, amendments, etc.).
Option 2: Tax Filing + Annual Tax Strategy

For clients with complex decisions throughout the year who want active guidance and scenario modeling.
Includes everything in Option 2, plus:

- Entity strategy + compensation planning (when applicable)
- 4–6 planning touchpoints per year (based on complexity)
