I've been a proud TurboTax user since I made $20,000 a year serving tables in college…read more(coincidentally I also spent $20K at Forever 21 that year). I never had an issue with the service until this year when I got a letter from the IRS. Cue insane panic attack. I called several tax accountants in the area to find out every single tax accountant (even in the big name branches) are basically on vacation all fall and summer. If I wasn't having a mental breakdown...I definitely was by this time. I went to Yelp and found Sina and was so relieved when he answered on the second ring and made time for me to come in that afternoon. I was kind of scared that I had fallen into a Better Call Saul situation but my experience was very efficient and pleasant. He was able to help me with my situation (turns out the IRS actually owes me $8 suckaaaaaaa!!!) and after looking back at a few returns he immediately recognized an issue with my payroll that will get me back thousands of dollars. He organized all my forms, made it super easy for me to understand and made one of my big stressors a thing of the past. And even better he stocks his office with those cheez-whiz cracker packs so you can stress eat your troubles away. I'll definitely be making it a habit to visit Sina every tax season from now on! #Adulting

We went to Sina based upon a glowing recommendation from a friend. Let me preface this by saying…read morethat we have been through our share of tax accounting firms and the usual "do it yourself", Turbo Tax business over the years. Upon meeting Sina, my wife and I were totally impressed by his knowledge and understanding of tax laws and gave us some great advice. Although our taxes are not too complex, Sina took the time to answer all our questions as well as give us financial advice which we definitely have taken into consideration. My wife tends to ask a lot of deep questions and she is always a good judge of character and knowledge, so I am always surprised when she leaves a place completely satisfied! Overall, Sina is extremely personable, knowledgeable, and reliable when it comes to tax service. We definitely recommend him and his company to anyone who wants to be treated with respect as well as provides you with advice on your finances. Definitely blows away any experience we have had with a popular tax firm in our area as well as just plugging it into Turbo Tax and be done with it. Definitely take the time to see Sina, if you truly care about your taxes and finances!

He was abrasive on the phone, and stated their consultation fee was $400 for half an hour. He kept speaking over me and complained. All poor service.

Short-version: Jeff Lipsey is simply the best…read more Long-version: I typically do my personal income taxes myself and have never had to file business income taxes before. I'm also one of those horrible last-minute filers. So it was that I realized at 5pm on Friday, April 12th (before the April 15th tax deadline, mind you) that I needed to file a D-30 Unincorporated Business Franchise Tax Return for my the AirBnB I began in 2018. I frantically called various CPAs throughout the DMV to try to get some advice on my D-30 situation (at 5:30pm on a Friday). No luck. Then I found the Lipsey and Associates blog post on AirBnB and casual rental income, which was very helpful in itself. And then I sent a horribly long e-mail explaining my situation to Jeff Lipsey and asking for his advice. At 6pm on the Friday before Tax Day. Most people would have probably just laughed at my e-mail and then gone back to enjoying their weekend. But not Jeff. He responded to my e-mail within 12 hours, and then answered my follow-up questions in less than an hour!!! As a result, I was able to deduct more business expenses and ended up netting almost $2,000, as compared to the tax returns I prepared prior to receiving Jeff's advice. As you can see, Jeff is the best! Do yourself a favor and call or e-mail him.

My wife and I have been with TPI Group for a few years now. As our personal and business taxes have…read moregrown more complex, rockstars like Cesar, Pepper, and Wendy have made what was once a stressful process incredibly easy to navigate. What really sets them apart is their proactive approach. They don't just file your return and call it a day; they take the time to explain every option and have helped us strategize for the following year so we always feel prepared. The best part is that it doesn't feel like a typical tax preparation office. It's the kind of high-level expertise you'd expect from a large firm, but with a genuine, family feel that makes you feel like a priority. The pricing is very reasonable for the quality of service they provide. If you're looking for a reliable and trustworthy team that truly understands the business side of things and thinks about your future, TPI is an excellent choice. I can't recommend them enough. We will definitely be back next season.

The difference with Carl is that I know I can trust him and count on things to be done right and on time (but just like anyone else, it helps to provide proper records/docs in advance of IRS and state deadlines). It would be a lot harder to invest in real estate without Carl's expertise. This includes dealing with returns for LLCs (K1s), depreciation of properties, as well as repairs and renovations. He's a great sounding board and advisor as well, and I highly recommend you contact him if you need a CPA (and most people do), especially if you're based in Virginia and own real estate.
