This was my first time using Ray for my kind of complicated tax prep, but I'm coming back every…read moreyear from now on! This is a family business: Ray does the prep, his wife (of 49 years!) does scheduling, and his adult grandson and wife assist in the practice. The office is filled with family travel photos and mementos, and small things to make customers feel well served and welcome: water bottles and soda are on the customers' side of the desk, with candy, phone charging cords, and pads and pens. I got a rubber jar opener that Ray gave out last year - his 30th anniversary client gift because I didn't get one then (not being a client). It's in a strip mall on the corner of Newport Ave and Beverage Hill and does t look that reassuring from the outside - but inside is a caring, professional, and friendly group of tax experts. As we sat doing my taxes, about 10 people came in one at a time to drop off, pick up, or ask questions about their tax forms (and one who needed to do amended forms for late W-2s). Grandson Austin handled most of them independently, but was very discreet when he needed quick info from the expert. Ray saved mea SERIOUS amount over last year's federal tax bill (by finding deductions TurboTax - and the CPA we used before last year - didn't offer/explain, at about half the fee I would have paid either of them). He also helped me learn how to pre-pay state taxes to lower my sticker shock next year: I'll always owe RI because my husband's MA pension isn't taxed by MA when it's paid but it's considered fully taxable income in RI. Ouch. Helping me avoid another huge bill next August? Thank you, Ray! Call early for 2026 - they cannot accept any more new clients this year. I'm so lucky I made the call to Ray Therrien when I did!

We need needed a consultation about a business venture we were about to start. I emailed Nikki and…read moreshe answered back quickly, and got us in within the same week. The office was in a charming historic building in down town Providence. Everything from the hallways to the elevator to the pendulum clock in the office just reminds of a more classical time in the history of Providence, perhaps a better time. Nikki is very kind and welcoming. She has a positive attitude. We sat with her and her father, Larry. They know how to ask all the right questions and they gave us a detailed and thorough consultation. I was really impressed with their professionalism. Best of all, the consultation was FREE! And here is how I know Nikki and Larry are trustworthy. They advised us against a specific business plan and showed us its shortcomings, although they could have made lots of money doing the paperwork for us. This shows integrity. Larry showed me how to do a simple task at city hall that would cost me a mere $10 instead of something that would have cost around $1000 a year. Give them a try and judge for yourself!

I wouldn't even give these people 1 star, but there is no other option. Now I know, after the last…read more2 years, that they are sneaky & underhanded. Last year they raised their cost(at least w/me)w/out informing me beforehand. I let it slide, but was not happy about it. This year when I dropped off my documents, I specifically asked the woman if it would be the same cost as last year & she said yes, if nothing changed. Well, nothing changed & they raised their cost again. They also failed to amortize my swim spa(purchased for medical reasons)over 5-10 years, as they said they would. How very unprofessional, after 17-18 years of going to them, not to mention the numerous referrals. I told the woman when I picked up my documents about what happened & that I would not be returning & she had no response. Nice way to do business & treat a repeat customer, year after year.........NOT!!!
