About the Sabino & Company Secure Client Portal
At Sabino & Company, we take the privacy and security of your information seriously. That is why we use our Secure Client Portal for transmitting confidential tax and financial information with each client. A Portal User ID and login instructions are provided to each Sabino & Company client via email. All documents made available to each client on the Sabino & Company Secure Client Portal can be printed, transferred to another file on your computer, saved on the portal or permanently deleted by you as you see fit.
