If you are looking for a reliable, no-nonsense CPA in the Portage Park/Irving Park area, John…read moreGriffin is the person to see. Navigating small business taxes in Chicago can be a headache, but John makes the entire process feel manageable and transparent. The Experience John is incredibly professional but also very personable. Unlike some of the larger, impersonal firms, he actually takes the time to listen to your specific financial situation. He's been in the neighborhood for a long time and clearly knows the ins and outs of both Illinois and federal tax laws. Why I Recommend Him: Responsiveness: He is great about returning calls and emails, even during the peak of tax season. You never feel like just another file on a desk. Accuracy & Insight: He doesn't just "plug in numbers." He looks for proactive ways to help you save on taxes and plan for the next year. Fair Pricing: His fees are very reasonable for the level of expertise and personal attention you receive. Pro Tip His office is conveniently located on Irving Park Road. There is usually street parking available right out front, but if you're coming during a busy weekday, give yourself a few extra minutes to find a spot.

(Yes, I'm kind of a math/numbers nerd) We've also helped get things lined up and organized outside of just retirement savings as well - all with the help and guidance of Mike. He really knows his stuff and goes the extra mile for his clients - not only on his end but taking the time to really explain it to us non-financial folks. Highly recommend his services!

I work directly with…read moreBrian, but I've also communicated with his team while managing accounting and tax tasks, and I can't say enough good things about them. They are knowledgeable, kind, communicative, and genuinely have your best interests at heart which are qualities you want in anyone handling your money and business needs. They're reliable and consistently go the extra mile to ensure you feel supported. Every request I had was handled promptly, leaving me feeling secure and confident. Brian's practice is guided by excellent values, and his accounting firm is a prime example of why I love living in Chicago. It shows that people here take care of each other, remember what's truly important, and maintain strong ethics in everything they do.

Every year we hand off our paper after receiving our sheet with suggested docs and required docs to turn in. Once we hand it off, we know we can trust her to get all of the things done right. She even helps make suggestions to lesson the load of laying taxes at the end of the year by making small adjustments with withholding so it doesn't come out in a big chuck at the time of taxes. We can always count on the swiftness, and communication regarding our taxes. So much so, that the stress of tax season is essentially nonexistent with Evans Gzech!
