Jeff has been doing my taxes for two years now. I couldn't find his number today to have him answer…read morea tax/accounting question. I googled his number. Yelp came up and I was amazed that 1- he only had two reviews and 2- that they were both negative. Jeff did a great job on my taxes, he was upfront, and reasonable on costs. He was prompt in responding, kind and understanding. To hear someone that would say that he is rude is very unfortunate. He is a kind man, an eclectic office for sure, but the design of his office has no baring on how respectful, thorough and professional he has been with me. As someone that works in customer service myself, often times people write reviews only do so because they were given information that they were not pleased with. The "shoot the messenger" mentality. Jeff is great, you will see for your self!

Jeff and his team have been preparing my taxes for over 20 years. They have effectively and…read moreefficiently worked through a myriad of changes over the years ranging from buying/selling properties, changes in dependent statuses, etc. Through every situation Jeff has taken the time to answer any questions and offer recommendations as needed. I am always provided with a copy of my return and associated documents in a handy storage folder. Also you can't beat the chocolate bars and pens offered at the front desk. I cannot say that this is the least expensive tax preparation location, but for anything other than a straight 1040EZ, well worth the peace of mind.

When choosing an accountant for my business, I had a short list…read more Because it was such an important choice for me and the success of my business, I interviewed 4 CPA's and paid them all for their time. To be brief, they all sucked. So, I started asking my massage clients (pre-Yelp!)...thankfully one of them recommended Mark. What I appreciate most about Mark is his clear confident attitude, without pretense. If I don't understand something, he will explain it to me numerous different ways until I get it, without making me feel like I should already know the complex federal/state tax structure. Mark is knowledgeable, reasonably priced, and gives excellent customer service. HIGHLY recommend.

After selfishly using yelp for years this is the first review I've given, for good reason. I found…read moreMark on Yelp, at the time he was the highest rated CPA and all the comments were influential. We had a phone conversation, a meeting, and I decided to hire him. Honestly, one of the best decisions I've made regarding finances and our business overall. I can't stress too much how better off your financial situation will be if you meet with Mark. He loves numbers and tax code stuff, which means he loves his profession and is always up to date on what's going on with the incredibly confusing tax situation in the U.S. So far, he found a mistake in our last tax preparer's returns and got us back over $4000, without asking for a dime because he was looking over the returns for another reason-that showed me he's honest. His cost for preparing this years returns compared to what we paid for last years was at least 40% less, and honestly they were done less than a week after I had given him the information- sometimes the next day. Our last tax person took months, and the returns were not even prepared correctly. My wife and I own a business and I went looking for someone who would be able to tell us how to do it better- I told this to Mark at our first meeting, and simply due to the information he provided us he saved us over $7000 in taxes this year alone, by changing the structure of our business and how we file. The invoice for the re-strucuring was only $330. If your'e reading this, you're probably looking for a good CPA, someone who knows his stuff and could possibly save you some money. I assure you, if you go with Mark, you will not go wrong.

I have used Central Accounting and Tax Services twice now. Both times were very pleasant…read moreexperiences. Mo is professional, timely, and very knowledgeable about tax/accounting matters. He is eager to answer any questions you have, even after you have left his office you can call/email with any follow-up questions. His prices are very affordable. When I was calling around getting pricing for consultations to get advice on the setup of my LLC, his rate was the most reasonable -- which was a major selling point for our small business that was just starting out. I came back later in the year so he could do the return for my personal joint tax filing, and once again, his price was over 25% less than what we had paid the previous year with a different company. I also want to mention that he prepared our return in record time too. We were in his office late Friday afternoon and had the return by Monday evening. I strongly recommend Central Accounting & Tax Services to all!

On July 2nd I received a response saying it would be at least one more week since the reviewer is out of the office. On July 31 I requested an update. On August 6 I requested an update. On August 13 I requested an update. And today I requested an update. I tried to call the phone number in their signature block (there isn't one listed on their website), and there is no answer. I don't think this firm is still open. I've reached out to new accounting firms to start hiring a new accountant.

When by chance you do get her on the phone she doesn't know who you are. She made a mistake on my tax return, in my favor, which the IRS picked up! I asked her for an explanation and she said I had overpaid, which in fact wasn't true. Almost a year later, and I still don't have my refund. I have asked her monthly to contact the IRS as she's my legal representative and can get through. Every time she gives me another blow off reason why she can't get an answer. And we're talking about a lot of money. I finally went to another accountant and got an answer in a day! One day! And again the long delay was because of something Mimi had done and failed to tell me. When pressed about it, again, she said it was my fault. Mimi and her team couldn't care less about your business. Her work is sloppy and she's dishonest. I can't warn you strongly enough not to use her.

Mimi Pangallo is efficient, fair and knowledgeable…read more Rockstar Mimi....she would make recommendations on tax deductions that we were had not realized were available. She did not over-complicate things. She was fair and always took responsibility. Once when we had a little speed-bump issue on her side, she solved it at no charge (the right thing to do ...we didn't even have to ask). I appreciated her accountability. It is confident building when your accountant understands your situation and can make some $ saving suggestions. Isn't this what they all should do?!? Nope, they do not all do that. Some of the big firms we have since worked with make a meal out of simple things and do not have any proactive suggestions. I miss Mimi. We moved on when my new partner brought some global expertise needs, but i miss her and her firm. I refer to her as often as I can. Now that things are simpler again, i will be calling her. You will be lucky to have her on your professional service team.
