Luckily I have David Caplan to take care of business for me. David is extremely knowledgeable about all things fiscal (he's a deductions wizard) and he's honest and reliable. But perhaps my favorite thing about him are the hilarious tax-time letters he sends out - this dude has a wicked sense of humor! His fees are very reasonable and he'll hold your hand if you need him to, which is perfect for a financial idiot like myself. Having him as my accountant for the past 5 years (many of them as a freelancer) almost makes me look forward to April 15. Almost.

Confusedosity isn't even a word, so you can tell what taxes do to me :) Most accountants don't seem to know what email is, let alone have a pretty decent web site. This guy can solve most of your problems by phone and email.

I found Wally at the Bottom Line to be incredibly helpful, friendly, easy to work with and competitively priced. I have been so happy to have him as my accountant over the past several years. He has also served my family well with advice about financial planning, and I worked with him one on one getting some financial coaching when life circumstances changed suddenly. This too, proved to be helpful, focused and on point. He provides low tech services (bring all your papers in) for my mom, and I appreciate the ability to upload documents to a portal from home. Win-win!

We used this company for the first--and last--time this year.

A letter about this to the founder and CEO of the company, Julia Brufke Wenger, went unanswered after two weeks. I'm disappointed at the lack of expertise demonstrated by the tax preparer and by the lack of professionalism on the part of the management team. I cannot recommend this firm to anyone.

They failed to file my tax returns on time on several occasions, and ended up costing me thousands of dollars in penalties. In the most recent incident, after failing to file my business taxes, the accountant simply would not set aside two hours to finish my returns. I ended up calling him several times a week for months-28 calls in total. By the time he actually did the returns, I had thousands of dollars in penalties. To top it all off, today, I learned from the IRS that Macalpine never filed my 2020 personal taxes.

He also discusses other clients' business with you while you're in his office.
