Very personable. Great, fast service. I'll be getting my taxes done by Ara from now on.

Spoke to me as if I was a child. I already knew most of the things he was telling me then proceeded to want to charge me 15k a year. For the whole services the thing is my business is small it's an S corp and it just looked like he saw I was young and wanted a cash grab. I don't appreciate that I hate cpa's like him it's so hard to find a good one without them trying to take advantage. read more

I feel extremely blessed that I was referred to him and I feel confident everything is going to be done correctly. I would highly recommend Ara Kassabian to anyone looking for advice or in need of an accountant, he will definitely help you. I also felt that his fee was extremely reasonable, especially considering how many years he's been in business and how well he knows all the laws - definitely an expert you can trust. read more

I met with Mr. Kassabian for an urgent matter that required an independent CPA review. He graciously worked extra hours in his schedule to help with my timing pressure.

If you need a great CPA, or a specialist in your corner for any kind of audit, I highly recommend Mr. Kassabian. read more

I have had good CPAs in the past, and I have had really lousy ones that ended up costing me a lot of money I didn't even know I was losing. It was my last return that opened my eyes, when I owed many times more than ever in the past. I honestly could have had the same costly result using any nondescript free service on the Internet. A friend of mine referred me to Ara. That recommendation was one of the better ones of my financial life. Ara is incredibly patient, his command of accounting is encyclopedic, and as a result of his accounting know-how, came up with ways we were able to reduce not only this year's taxes, but were able to amend a previous return from my last accountant, saving me a lot more money. There is an old saying that all one needs in life is a good CPA, doctor, lawyer, mechanic, and plumber. I clearly have the first profession covered. It is a major relief to know that I have someone like Ara I can trust 100% with my financial interests. Now when I file my taxes, it is stress free. To whomever out there is at their wits' end with their taxes, Ara is your man. And I could write an equally enthusiastic review on his assistant, who is so incredibly courteous, patient and professional. Call Ara and see for yourself read more

Mr. Kassabian and his accountancy fulfill all my tax needs for more than two years. He and his assistants worked hard to get it done promptly.

I would strongly recommend his service if you decide to let an accountant take care of your tax return. read more

It is very rare this day and age to find people who will do what they say they will do. Ara is one of these rare people. After going through 3 accountants, I feel blessed to have found him. Not only is he extremely educated in his profession, and adapts well to the changing technology, I feel he goes above and beyond the call of duty. His staff is courteous and is a pleasure to work with, plus they always call me back within a couple of hours. His fees are reasonable, and I actually feel that I get more than what I pay for. He recently did a negotiation for me, with a very wonderful outcome, which I am extremely grateful for, and I will never forget it. I will recommend him to all my friends and family. read more
