This place was a joke. Made an appointment at 3 on Sunday with Nick and the second he saw myself…read moreand my fiancé, he wanted nothing to do with us. He didn't even introduce himself, ask my name, my fiancé's and he was not interested in anything we had to say. He called us in, didn't even walk us to his cubicle, no introduction , his face showed how annoyed he was, he was so passive and kept asking about how much I was comfortable spending as if I couldn't afford to get my taxes done by them. The vibe from the beginning was off and I did everything I could to get out of there. I took all of papers, my ID and ran. Never coming back and do NOT recommend. Made me feel like I wasn't good enough to be there despite being a homeowner at 22, working full time and getting married next year. PASS!!

But James Flannery seems like a no nonsense kinda guy who's knowledgeable and personable at the same time. Compared to other tax preparers who take advantage of tax season to overcharge, (H&R highway robbers) Jim's fees are very reasonable. He's definitely a keeper! Highly recommend.

You must consider this business if you are looking for tax preparation assistance…read more Easy, knowledgeable, prompt, and professional is how this firm rolls. I reached out to Tim after a not so fab experience with another accountant after relocating to the area. Finding an accountant is seriously as difficult as finding a great hair stylist. Within minutes of talking on the phone, I felt he could deal with my Type A-may panic about taxes-personality. A win for me. Everything was organized and simple. I had all my documents scanned in, emailed them over, and we met in person because I just wanted to go through this face to face step. I did not have many questions, and Tim put me at ease immediately. My taxes were done and paid for quickly (it behooves you to have your s_i_t together....just saying). Absolutely seamless. I cannot recommend this firm enough!

I could not recommend Advisant any higher. The customer service and expertise they provided was…read moreabove and beyond. In previous years, we'd used two well known and highly rated accounting firms to manage finances and file taxes. Since working with Tom and the Advisant team, I can confidently say that these are the best accountants I've had the pleasure of working with. Our finances include contract work, freelance animation, entertainment fees, standard W2's, investments, and various other out-of-the-box income and expenses. Advisant sorts through it all and has done so professionally and patiently. I only wish I had found them sooner.

I rarely write reviews. When I do, it's because of truly stellar service…read more My husband and I came to Michael Raff after 3 other accounting firms failed to help us solve a costly error made by the IRS and a previous accountant. The issue had been lingering since 2020 (2019 tax year). We tried numerous CPA firms and tax accountants. A few claimed they could help ultimately at significant cost to us, many told us to "forget about it". Last fall we decided this was a job for a tax attorney. I read reviews from every possible source trying to find a tax attorney with good reviews. Michael Raff's reviews were 100% great. I was suspicious of that many great reviews. I concluded that there were too many and too varied for the feedback to be fake. Not only that, he has a transparent and meticulous process for the way he bills and updates clients. Others before him pledged to keep us informed but only Michael proactively phoned us (and followed up with an e-mail) at the end of every month. The minimal retainer he asked for in order to work on this problem is still not used up. Michael was able to retrieve the money from the original error in LESS THAN SIX MONTHS, where other large, expensive firms had failed us for OVER 5 YEARS. He is still planning to retrieve money from the IRS on our behalf for the error adjacent money. We assumed he was a specialist only and worked as a dedicated tax attorney. Michael also does regualar tax preparation. It did not take much convincing to for us to engage him as our accountant. If you want an acccountant who is knowledgeable, dedicated, and ethical, I think you would be hard pressed to find someone more skilled than Michael Raff.
