John Hewitt, the president, CEO and chairman of Liberty Tax Service, is anticipating increased business for preparers this tax season thanks to the Affordable Care Act and the boost in employment from the increasingly robust jobs market.
Hewitt founded Liberty Tax Service in 1996 after leaving Jackson Hewitt, another major tax prep chain that he co-founded back in 1982. He built them into the second and third largest tax prep chains in the country, right behind H&R Block, where he worked his way up from tax preparer to regional director.
