401(k) Audit Help: Avoid It or Handle It Without the Chaos
Still Paying Your Advisor While You Handle the Audit? Let’s Fix That.
You’re probably paying someone 0.50% for donuts (if you’re lucky) and dead air while the CFO or HR team scrambles to get through a $15,000 audit. I’ll run the audit, fix your plan if it’s broken, and actually do the job your current advisor won’t.
What You’re Dealing With:
- Your plan tripped the 100-participant threshold
- HR drowning in audit requests
- CPA dragging it out or doing it wrong
- Bundled provider won’t help
- Advisor nowhere to be found
What You Get With Me:
- I run point on the audit from start to finish
- I coordinate with the CPA (or bring in a better one)
- I clean up the eligibility and plan design
- I run the enrollment meetings
- I take over as your fiduciary advisor—flat-fee or smarter than what you’re paying now
Bonus: If your plan qualifies, I’ll help you avoid the audit next year altogether (and maybe forever).
Why This Matters: Most CPA audits don’t protect your people—they just punish you for having a growing business. If your advisor didn’t warn you this was coming, you need a new one.
Let’s Be Clear: If I’m not your advisor, I’m not managing your audit. No dual lane. No guesswork. One point of contact. Start to finish.
What Kind of Audit Are We Talking About? This is the routine 401(k) audit required when your plan hits 100+ eligible participants—not a DOL or IRS investigation. If that’s your situation, we’re not a fit (and you probably need a lawyer, not me).

No hard sell. Just facts, and if you like what I have to say you’ll probably want to hire me.
