Payroll Companies & Payroll Services in Towson, MD

Tax Experience, LLC is a small tax and accounting practice with an office in Towson, Maryland, serving the greater Baltimore area. The firm works with both individuals and businesses of varying sizes. For companies that want payroll handled alongside their books and tax filings, it offers payroll as one part of a broader set of back-office services rather than as a standalone product.

Payroll Within a Full Back-Office Offering

Payroll is listed among the firm's core business services, next to bookkeeping, consulting, and outsourced finance support. For employers comparing providers, the main appeal is consolidation. The same team that maintains the general ledger and prepares returns can also manage payroll, so wage data, tax filings, and financial statements stay in one place.

Buyers who need detailed information about payroll processing frequency, filing coverage, or software should confirm these points directly with the firm, because its published materials describe payroll at a general level.

How the Firm Works With Clients

Engagements can take place on-site at the client's business or through the firm's own office. The practice also relies heavily on remote delivery. Clients can reach their financial records and documents online through a secure client portal built on the CountingWorks platform.

According to the firm, people working with it remotely, including those living abroad, get the same service as clients who visit in person. Tax Experience also promotes custom setups for accounting, document handling, and file storage tailored to each business. It presents outsourcing as a lower-cost alternative to keeping a full internal accounting staff.

Background and Leadership

The firm is led by Wade Kennedy, who holds an MBA, is a member of the Beta Gamma Sigma honor society, and has completed the IRS Annual Filing Season Program (AFSP). His career covers corporate finance, mergers and acquisitions, accounting, and taxation. He reports serving more than 250 individual and business tax clients and advising over 60 corporate finance clients.

He has also mentored or managed more than 25 startups and led transactions with a combined value above $2 billion. Before settling in Baltimore, he worked in New York, Denver, and Boston, and he grew up in St. Louis.

What sets Tax Experience apart from large national payroll processors is direct access to an experienced principal. That advisor can connect payroll to tax planning, cash flow management, and wider financial strategy. Smaller employers, startups, and non-profits in the Towson and Baltimore region looking for one advisor to oversee payroll, bookkeeping, and taxes together may find this model a good fit. The firm offers a free initial consultation.
