Our story
Built on the belief that clients deserve both
Anderson Edwards PLLC was founded on a commitment to exceptional tax and accounting service - rooted in the belief that clients deserve both efficiency and personal attention.
Founding partners Chris Anderson and Jade Edwards first connected as interns at a Norfolk, Virginia accounting firm. When that firm was acquired by a large multinational CPA firm, they spent the next decade refining their craft inside it - working with sophisticated clients on complex tax and accounting matters.
They were grateful for the experience. But they also felt a growing conviction: clients deserved a firm that could deliver that same technical depth with a more personalized, accessible, and proactive experience. With strong support from a network of local business professionals, they set out to build it - and Anderson Edwards PLLC was formed.
Today the firm serves businesses and individuals from offices in Virginia Beach and Newport News: a team of professionals dedicated to building lasting relationships based on trust, expertise, and commitment to client success through evolving financial and legislative landscapes.
