Potts & Associates Company Profile

Unemployment Costs  - Jim and his team monitor the hiring process, layoffs, and terminations, ensuring that documentation is adequate to support or deny claims and settle disputes. Potential clients are offered a free analysis of their unemployment tax account and an estimate of what they might save by using their services.
