Tax Service for First Responders
Keep more of what you’ve earned while protecting others.
Today’s tax laws are more complicated than ever.
At Brickey Tax Service LLC, we specialize in tax services for first responders… built around your schedule, your service, and your paycheck.
Because we know the unique challenges that come with being a Bay County first responder. Whether you’re in police, fire, medical, or public utilities, your job doesn’t come with a “pause button.” Calls don’t wait for convenient hours. And neither do tax deadlines.
Brickey Tax Service LLC Has Walked the Walk
With over 30 years in law enforcement, we know firsthand what it means to put on the uniform. And that perspective shapes how we work with you.
Beyond preparing your taxes, we anticipate the unique financial situations that come with shift work, overtime pay, specialized benefits, and the demands of a life lived in service.

Frequently Asked Questions

Overtime and special pay can bump you into higher brackets. We’ll help you understand the impact and explore strategies to minimize the effect. Like maximizing contributions to tax-deferred retirement accounts, utilizing a Health Savings Account if you have a high-deductible health plan, or looking into deductions or credits you might qualify for.
