Get to Know Firstax
Rooted in Dallas–Fort Worth, Firstax is led by Enrolled Agents Daniel and David Hartsock, bringing generations of local expertise and personal care to every client.

Our Story: A Family Tradition of Service
From One Office to a Community of Clients Across DFW
Founded in 1985, Firstax began as a small, family-run practice built on a commitment to service and integrity. Today, brothers Daniel and David Hartsock continue that tradition, guiding clients from all walks of life through tax season and beyond. With over 50 years of combined experience, our family has helped thousands of individuals and businesses in Prosper, Frisco, Aledo, Bedford, and the broader Dallas–Fort Worth area navigate tax complexities with confidence. Through every change, our mission remains the same: to make taxes less stressful and to be a reliable, friendly resource in our community.
We're here. You’ll never feel like just another file in our system.
