Specialties

We help business owners and nonprofits take the stress out of bookkeeping, tax planning, and tax preparation. Our office works hands-on with clients to keep finances organized, taxes handled properly, and compliance on track at every level. For businesses that need more than basic accounting, we offer outsourced CFO and CEO services—providing strategic guidance, cash flow support, and operational insight without the cost of a full-time executive. Whether you’re managing one location or several, we help you understand the numbers and use them to grow confidently. We also have experience supporting nonprofit organizations with incorporation, applications, and ongoing compliance. Our approach is collaborative and practical—we work closely with teams, vendors, and partners to solve problems, improve workflows, and help businesses run more efficiently.

History

Established in 2008.

I am a 1992 graduate of the University of Massachusetts-Boston, and obtained my law degree, (J.D.), from Franklin Pierce Law Center in Concord, New Hampshire in 1996. In 2008, I left the practice of law to focus on the implementation and development of a broad spectrum of services as a consultant and advocate for small businesses and families. I had lost my way, and although it took a lot of soul searching to discover it, I realized that I forgot many of the reasons I went to law school and more importantly, the ideals which inspired me in that decision. In forming Nakata Consulting, my mission became to "serve" others, by offering solutions, through implementing and developing strategies to help people problem solve. My goal is to build "relationships"; not simply be transactional. My family and mentors have taught me that there is no such thing as perfection, but "hard work" will help you succeed in any challenge. That is the message I want to bring; with hard work, trust.

Meet the Business Owner: Joe C.

I come from a blue collar Portuguese family. My grandparents were first generation immigrants who worked hard at many jobs to earn a living wage. My father was a teamster, and worked as a laborer his whole life. Myself, I grew up in a blue collar city, (Somerville, Massachusetts), and have tried hard not to forget my roots or from where I came. I know it sounds cliché, but I am a "people person", who enjoys working as part of a team and still today wants to make a difference.
