After reading lot of positive Yelp reviews, my husband and I booked an initial consultation for our…read moreyearly taxes. My husband is a musician who does lots of gig/freelance work and we wanted to get professional eyes on our taxes as our situation has become more complex. We had an intro call with Sandy who assured us she could help with our situation. We then decided to take the next step and provided all of our documents within their portal on March 3rd. After submitting we heard nothing back from them for weeks and so we called towards the end of the month to check in. When we did this they only then started asking us for additional documents and wanted us to reformat all profits and losses within their specific document formats despite us already providing these 4 weeks prior in our own format. We asked them if they could just use our existing documents and they said that would be an additional bookkeeper service of $300. At this point we were very frustrated that they took an entire month to tell us all of this after we submitted initial documents. We ended up filing with an alternative.

I was referred to Michael Garelick by a friend who is a satisfied customer. I needed to have my…read moreexisting tax return for accuracy and missing deductions. The first thing I noticed was how responsive and friendly Michael was. It was clear that he cared about his clients and wanted to provide top-notch service. I explained what I needed and within an hour, I was able to log into his client site and upload the document he requested, a TurboTax file. He reviewed the document and got right back to me. He pointed out things I had missed and explained how I could file a 1040-X with the IRS. I was prepared to pay his normal fee for providing this service, which was fair, but he made an allowance for me because of the simplicity of my issues and charged me far less. It is rare for a business to do this. It's nice, and rare, to deal with someone so understanding, competent, and fair. I don't give gratuitous compliments. Michael earned every laudatory comment!

I needed to find a savvy firm that is well versed in Real Estate investments (as I own in properties in multiple states and entities) and in investments/stocks & businesses. Incredibly Knowledgeable: Their team is as knowledgeable as it gets with all the latest Tax laws in California (as well as other states & international tax laws - as a US citizen living abroad). The owner Stephen & his partners have multiple certifications and have been able to answer all my questions. Integrity, EFFICIENT & On Time: They are efficient in finishing your taxes in the time frame they promise. My clients who own multi-million dollar businesses also have had great experiences in over the last decade. TAX PLANNING: Also it is most recommended for those looking for organized tax planning quarterly. Think of them not just as a CPA firm you speak to once a year, but as your financial partner. I highly recommend them!
