IT services built for Palo Alto professional services firms
Palo Alto is synonymous with innovation, but behind the venture capital headlines and Stanford research breakthroughs, a substantial professional services community keeps the city's wealth and business ecosystem running (U.S. Census QuickFacts). CPA firms on University Avenue manage the complex tax situations of tech founders and executives. Law firms downtown handle everything from intellectual property litigation to estate planning for multi-generational wealth. Boutique financial services firms — from Sand Hill Road venture capital shops to private lenders and valuation firms — require ironclad data security to protect deal-sensitive information. Census data shows professional services is Palo Alto's top employment sector, with nearly 9,500 residents working in the field. One82 serves all of them.
From our Los Gatos headquarters, Palo Alto is approximately 25 minutes via Interstate 280 — and we have technicians stationed throughout the Bay Area and Central Coast for rapid on-site response. Our team knows the city's professional landscape well: the established practices along University Avenue, the growing California Avenue business district, the professional offices near Town & Country Village, and the firms in the Stanford Research Park area. Whether your firm is a five-person boutique or a 75-person practice, we deliver the same proactive monitoring, security-first approach, and compliance expertise.
Palo Alto's professional services community operates at the highest level. Your IT infrastructure should match. One82 has been serving Bay Area professional services firms since 1999 — 26+ years of understanding the specific technology, security, and compliance demands that CPA practices, law firms, and financial services companies face every day — from IRS Publication 4557 to State Bar technology competence rules.
