Not Attentive nor Timely!…read more With taxes, timing is everything, specifically when you are predicting owning our government money. Unfortunately, if you are looking for a CPA that will be attentive and timely, David Chopp is not your accountant. For our 2017 tax year, we enlisted the help of Mr. Chopp. Although we started the process of getting in to see him in January, our tax return was not ready until ten days before the Federal deadline. Additionally, Chopp never took the time to consult with us about the amount we may owe. Because of this timing and because we were not aware of the amount of taxes we would owe, we were unable to prepare ourselves financially. Once we finally received our return and saw the amount, we were left scrambling to find funds and react to this new debt. It took a couple of weeks and several phone calls to the IRS to get things in order finally. If Chopp had been more timely and attentive to our tax needs, we would not have had to arrange our finances to deal with the IRS so frantically. On top of all this, there were several communications that we took as belittling as if everyone should know the details of tax laws and accounting procedures or his bandwidth. In retrospect, hindsight being 20/20, I would not have chosen Mr. Chopp as our CPA. My recommendation is to find another accountant.

He is extremely knowledgeable and efficient in how he handles both our business and personal tax returns. I admit filing our taxes is a real pain-in-the-butt due to all the complicated issues, needed clarification and back & forth stuff but Dan handles the pressure well. (Which would seem like a "no brainer" in this industry but I have seen some tax professionals crack). Every time I've emailed Dan, he responds quickly with helpful advice. No question is silly or dumb; I feel he really cares about his clients and how to best help them. I am so glad we found A&L Financial Services! We will surely be using them for many years to come.

I greatly appreciated the fact that you could request a consultation through Yelp. I filled out the "First-Time Client Form & Quote" online, answered some questions, and got a quote shortly after submitting it. Just a FYI, minimum preparation fee if $400. But we've messed up doing our own taxes before on Turbo Tax and had to pay a hefty interest fee for our error. For that reason, I have been willing to pay more to make sure that doesn't ever happen again. My husband and I have multiple properties which is why we just don't even try to do taxes on our own anymore. With this quarantine, everything was done online and was quick. We had a meeting online, Sean set up a cloud folder for us to drop our files, and he had our tax return ready within ONE DAY! SUPER FAST! We were able to sign everything off with DocuSign. If you're tech savvy and want someone who is quick, responsive, and thorough, Sean is your guy!
