Selden Fox serves manufacturing companies throughout Chicago and state of Illinois (IL), and we are ready to assist with your tax, accounting, audit and financial reporting needs. The manufacturing industry is facing a time of increased uncertainty highlighted by challenges in tariff uncertainties, workforce concerns, and the ever-rising costs of raw material. At the same time, from a tax perspective, there are new opportunities resulting from tax reform for capital investments and more.

Our expertise working with more than 60 Chicago area and Illinois based manufacturing companies allows us to advise manufacturers on tax planning, compliance, audit, and various business issues.
