About us
Kittell, Branagan & Sargent, Certified Public Accountants, was founded on May 1, 1986 by Dana Kittell, Christopher Branagan and Gregory Sargent with its office at 154 North Main Street, St. Albans, Vermont. KBS is an outgrowth of predecessor firms Briggs Keyes Company and Urbach, Kahn and Werlin, which had served Northern Vermont since 1968. We offer the traditional services of accounting, auditing and taxation as well as complete management advisory services, pension and profit sharing plan administration and design and litigation support. Our Firm’s commitment to quality is evidenced by our membership in the Private Companies Practice Section of the A.I.C.P.A. This membership assures clients that our quality remains extremely high. We make it our business to understand your short- and long-term financial goals—and proactively guide you through tax season and beyond with our expertise in tax codes, auditing standards, and complex regulatory requirements. Rather than file tasks independent of each other—taxation, payroll, balance sheets, and bank statements—we treat your business as a whole. This results in comprehensive fiscal intelligence across your entire business.
