About
Bringing Your Whole Financial Life into Focus
Larkin & Associates was founded in Arizona in 1981 by Don and Sue Larkin. Their son, Michael J. Larkin, came into the company in 2001 and became the second-generation owner of the firm in 2020. Michael has also owned and operated Larkin Tax Services since 2002. By combining the services offered through these two practices, we can provide truly comprehensive service.
