Sean attended Fairfield University earning his B.S. in Accounting in 1984. Sean earned his Certified Public Accountant (CPA) designation in 1989 and established his practice in the same year, at just 27 years of age. Working with clients&#8217; business and personal taxes, the need for <em>planning<\/em> became apparent, so Sean continued his education, allowing\u00a0 him to provide a holistic financial approach. Not only is Sean a CPA, he is also a Certified Financial Planner (CFP), a series 7 registered representative (stockbroker), and has his life insurance license. In the 30+ years since opening, Sean has followed the needs of clients, presenting them with viable solutions to their financial problems, thus reducing their stress in those areas.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Sean is dedicated to community service and active involvement. He as served as President and Treasurer of the Scotch Plains Rotary Club, and serves in an executive position at his church. In high school and college he was an avid rugby player and was elected to be a Scrum Captain at Fairfield University Rugby Football Club; he continued after college, playing with the Union County Rugby Football Club.<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=&#8221;1_2&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;3.25&#8243; custom_padding=&#8221;5%|||&#8221; custom_padding__hover=&#8221;|||&#8221;][et_pb_image src=&#8221;https:\/\/duffyfinancialservices.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Sean-Duffy-CPA.jpg&#8221; alt=&#8221;Sean Duffy CPA, owner&#8221; title_text=&#8221;Sean Duffy CPA&#8221; align_tablet=&#8221;center&#8221; align_phone=&#8221;&#8221; align_last_edited=&#8221;on|desktop&#8221; admin_label=&#8221;Image- Sean Duffy&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.9.2&#8243; animation_style=&#8221;fade&#8221; box_shadow_style=&#8221;preset4&#8243; box_shadow_horizontal=&#8221;80px&#8221; box_shadow_vertical=&#8221;50px&#8221; box_shadow_color=&#8221;#fbf3e4&#8243;][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=&#8221;1&#8243; admin_label=&#8221;Section- Core Values&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.9.7&#8243; custom_margin=&#8221;|||&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;60px|0px|100px|0px||&#8221;][et_pb_row column_structure=&#8221;1_2,1_2&#8243; use_custom_gutter=&#8221;on&#8221; gutter_width=&#8221;4&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;3.25&#8243; animation_style=&#8221;fade&#8221;][et_pb_column type=&#8221;1_2&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;3.25&#8243; custom_padding=&#8221;|||&#8221; custom_padding__hover=&#8221;|||&#8221;][et_pb_text admin_label=&#8221;Headline-Our Core Values&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.9.3&#8243; text_font=&#8221;Poppins||||||||&#8221; text_font_size=&#8221;16px&#8221; text_line_height=&#8221;1.8em&#8221; header_font=&#8221;||||||||&#8221; header_2_font=&#8221;Playfair Display|700|||||||&#8221; header_2_text_color=&#8221;#004f2b&#8221; header_2_font_size=&#8221;38px&#8221; header_2_line_height=&#8221;1.4em&#8221; header_3_font=&#8221;Poppins|700||on|||||&#8221; header_3_text_color=&#8221;#a88b37&#8243; header_3_font_size=&#8221;24px&#8221; header_3_letter_spacing=&#8221;1px&#8221; header_3_line_height=&#8221;2em&#8221; custom_margin=&#8221;||31px|||&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;||0px|||&#8221;]<\/p>\n<h2><span>Our Core Values<\/span><\/h2>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_divider color=&#8221;#e4d796&#8243; divider_weight=&#8221;5px&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.9.2&#8243; max_width=&#8221;60px&#8221; module_alignment=&#8221;left&#8221; height=&#8221;6px&#8221;][\/et_pb_divider][et_pb_text admin_label=&#8221;Text Core Values&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.9.7&#8243; text_font=&#8221;Poppins||||||||&#8221; text_font_size=&#8221;16px&#8221; text_line_height=&#8221;1.8em&#8221; header_font=&#8221;||||||||&#8221; header_2_font=&#8221;Playfair Display|700|||||||&#8221; header_2_text_color=&#8221;#004f2b&#8221; header_2_font_size=&#8221;38px&#8221; header_2_line_height=&#8221;1.4em&#8221; header_3_font=&#8221;Poppins|700||on|||||&#8221; header_3_text_color=&#8221;#a88b37&#8243; header_3_font_size=&#8221;24px&#8221; header_3_letter_spacing=&#8221;1px&#8221; header_3_line_height=&#8221;2em&#8221; custom_margin=&#8221;||31px|||&#8221; hover_enabled=&#8221;0&#8243; sticky_enabled=&#8221;0&#8243;]<\/p>\n<p>At Duffy Financial Services we value honesty and integrity above all.

In fact, only 5 returns we&#8217;ve prepared have been audited in the past 30 years, and 4 of the 5 were &#8220;no change&#8221; \u2014 meaning the IRS did not request additional money upon examination. When we accomplish the above products, we can reduce people&#8217;s stress related to finances. <strong><em>Integrity<\/em><\/strong> is crucial to achieving these results, along with<strong><em> knowledge, experience and training.\u00a0<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Our approach is rather unique in that we strive to sincerely understand how you <em>feel<\/em> about your money and\/or the situation you are in \u2014good or bad. This level of <strong><em>understanding<\/em><\/strong> allows us to truly represent <em>you.<\/em> Additionally, we never lose sight of the fact that a client may never have dealt with an issue before, so a key part of our service is <strong><em>education.<\/em><\/strong> We&#8217;ll explain concepts to your full understanding with the beginner in mind, not with a 30-year tax pro vocabulary.
