Simple Clear & Trustworthy

Big-firm background. Small-firm relationship.

At King & McCleary, carefully managing your finances is our top priority. We pride ourselves on providing personalized and thorough service that meets your business or individual needs.

Business clients have very different accounting requirements than individuals. While tax planning is important, business owners need current information to manage their businesses. Our role is imperative and informative. King & McCleary concentrates on increasing our clients’ success. We provide services to help you plan your first day, accurately track revenue and receivables, identify key performance indicators, and minimize your tax liability.

Welcome to King & McCleary

King & McCleary is a tax and accounting firm founded in 2002 in American Fork, Utah. Steve King and Matt McCleary left Big 4 firms — Ernst & Young and KPMG — to build something smaller, more personal, and still technically excellent. More than 20 years later, it remains exactly that. As part of the Baysora family of firms, K&M operates with the same core identity: Big 4 backgrounds, local relationships, and no unnecessary overhead between the client and the people doing the work.

CORE VALUES

Viverra maecenas accumsan lacus vel. Risus ultricies tristique.

Big-firm background. Small-firm relationship.

Both partners built their careers at Ernst & Young and KPMG before choosing to build something more personal. That background doesn’t disappear — it shows up in the quality of the work and the breadth of industries they’ve served. Clients get institutional-grade expertise without the institutional treatment.

Established. Experienced. Still here.

K&M has been in American Fork since 2002. That kind of longevity in a referral-based firm doesn’t happen by accident. Clients come back year after year because the work is right and the relationship is real.

Local, by choice.

They could have stayed in Salt Lake. They didn’t. K&M is rooted in Utah County — same community, same building on Main Street, for more than two decades. That’s not a coincidence. It’s a commitment.

Personal in a way big firms can’t be.

You’ll talk to Steve or Matt. You’ll work with a team that knows your situation and remembers it next year. Experienced professionals, not rotating junior staff. That’s the point of a firm this size.

Simple. Clear. Trustworthy.

K&M doesn’t make tax and accounting more complicated than it needs to be. They explain what matters, give you the answer, and help you move forward. No unnecessary complexity. No surprises.
