Hunter Norton, CPA, JD

Since 2013, Hunter has been a valuable member of the Farkouh Furman & Faccio team. He currently serves as a tax director in the firm’s Business Group and Alliott Global Mobility Group. In this capacity, he works primarily with cross-border tax planning for closely held businesses and high net worth individuals. He is also a primary contact on issues involving tax planning for pass-through entities. Hunter serves clients in a variety of sectors, including software development, retail, licensing of intellectual property, information services, and marketing. Prior to joining Farkouh Furman & Faccio, Hunter amassed nearly two decades of experience working for various public accounting firms, including a Big Four firm.

In his daily work, Hunter’s primary goal is to meet or exceed his clients’ expectations by being responsive and proactive. A life-long interest in the U.S. tax system is what inspired Hunter to pursue the career he chose. After taking a course on the subject in college, he knew that taxation was the area in which he wanted to specialize. Hunter credits his career success to his passion for both tax law and communicating his knowledge to clients in a way that is both understandable and helpful.

Raised in Connecticut, Hunter currently lives in Monroe. He and his wife, Annette, have two daughters, Chloe and Sophia. In his free time, Hunter enjoys playing tennis and keeping up with current events
