About Ross Hughes & Associates, CPAs, PLLC

Ross Hughes & Associates, CPAs, PLLC is an accounting firm in Jacksonville, FL, providing tax preparation, accounting, and advisory services to individuals and businesses in the city and surrounding areas. The firm works with service-based businesses, agriculture operations, real estate concerns, and professional service providers, handling day-to-day bookkeeping, system setup, and strategic tax planning alongside ongoing CFO-level advisory support. Clients can reach the Jacksonville office Monday through Friday from 8:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. by phone at (904) 641-6288.

The firm offers a full advisory practice built around monitoring the short- and long-term financial health of each business, providing strategic planning and financial projections, business consulting, entity selection, initial QuickBooks setup, and leadership and team development. Tax work goes beyond return preparation to include creative, year-round planning aimed at keeping more money in the client's hands, while the accounting side covers ongoing bookkeeping and system setup so owners can step out of the back office. The named team includes Senior Advisor Brent D. Ross, CPA and CPEC; Managing Member Heather Hughes, CPA; John Murk, CPA, a client manager and member; Staff Accountant Stephanie Lay; Client Accounting Specialists Christina Stephens, Shannon Corwin, Elibeth Estrada, Mary Lou Brown, and Aniya Callender; Administrative Coordinators Clara Snyder and Evelyn Ibarra; and Crystal Sexton, CFE, remembered as part of the firm's history.

The office sits at 4540 Southside Boulevard, Suite 601, on Southside Boulevard itself, about a tenth of a mile from a Natural Area park and around 0.3 miles from Gate Parkway and Gate Parkway West. Brackridge Park is roughly 0.8 miles away, and the WJXT-TV broadcast tower is about 0.7 miles from the building.

With a 4.80 rating across 16 customer reviews, the firm has built a solid reputation among the clients it has served in Jacksonville. For area businesses looking for year-round tax strategy combined with hands-on accounting and advisory guidance, Ross Hughes & Associates offers all three under one roof in the Southside corridor.
