Then I proceeded to read her the message she left me on my phone from my phone. The lady I first met with was no longer there, and I spoke with two different people after that, and then was finally told that the help I was looking for was something they couldn't provide- advice on an IRA account and future tax preparations. I hope no one else wastes their time as I have.

The one time I used one of the accountants it was a pleas experience. The following year you could…read morenever call and actually speak to the accountant because his office 'manager' intercepted ALL calls and said he was not there or busy. He never returned calls, perhaps never received the messages After picking up our file we realized we were given someone else's file with the same name but different address and social security number. Returned it and it was treated like it wasn't a big deal. During the next year he said he could FIX an error that another new accountant had filed from another firm. Nope, could not get phone to him or from him. Offered to pay him for any time he invested and was told nothing owed. I would not recommend anyone having to deal with his office manager. She sounds nice but she will not let you talk to him.

The past three years working with Aman & Peters has been as great as doing taxes possibly can be…read more Their professionalism, above and beyond service, and their ability to explain things so that anyone can understand is unparalleled. Ruth not only does a great job handling my personal taxes but also all of our business accounting throughout the year. There have been many tax changes lately and I feel comfort in knowing she is extremely detailed (honestly I have no clue how she keeps up with everything the way she does) and she is always analyzing tax laws and changes to make sure I am optimizing my rightfully due tax return. For example as the tax laws went into effect at the end of 2017 Ruth personally reached out to me to advise me to follow some steps she laid out that would make the most sense for me. If she hadn't of cared enough to do that it would have cost me money down the road. The staff is also extremely professional and courteous. Carrie is always right on top of everything and even takes the time to walk me through those steps I should probably know by now but can't seem to remember. I couldn't recommend anyone with more confidence than Aman & Peters.
