Accurate, On-Time Payroll You Don’t Have to Worry About

Stress-Free Payroll for Small to Mid-Sized Businesses Across California

Processing payroll can quickly become one of the most time-consuming and stressful parts of running a business—especially when it involves tax withholdings, wage laws, benefit deductions, and quarterly filings. At Cortez & Associates, we take that burden off your plate by handling your payroll with precision, consistency, and full compliance. Whether you have one employee or a growing team, we tailor our service to match your needs and scale with your business.

We ensure that your employees are paid correctly and on schedule, while staying compliant with all federal, state, and local payroll tax regulations. Our payroll services include direct deposit, payroll tax filings, W-2 and 1099 preparation, year-end reports, and more. We also handle things like garnishments, PTO tracking, and benefits deductions—so nothing slips through the cracks.

Clients trust us not just for what we do, but for how we do it. We’re responsive, easy to reach, and quick to resolve any issues that come up—because we understand how important payroll is to your team’s trust and morale. And unlike big-box providers, we offer a personal level of service that feels like an extension of your own business.

With Cortez & Associates, you don’t need to be a payroll expert—that’s our job. You just need a partner you can count on to get it right, every time.
