We have been using Sumi for several years for non-trivial/non-simple taxes and she's been great…read more Every year she has more information for me about possible deductions that have been added to the tax code or how I can better prepare for the next year, so in addition to doing taxes I'm unable to do on my own, her service improves for me year after year. A brief description of the non-trivial taxes Sumi has handled for us: * My wife works normal w-2 wages, and we have normal easy turbotax tax concerns like property tax and mortgage interest and 1099-INT or 1099-DIV deductions from savings. * I work a 1099 contractor job (software engineering) where I pay estimated taxes throughout the year and have additional self-employed deductions that I'm allowed to take for work-related expenses. * I have a single member LLC for some iPhone apps I've published on the app store. * I'm part of a dual-member LLC for other apps a friend and I published and maintain. For my needs, Sumi does it all: * She does our normal easy turbotax bits. * She handles our dual-member LLC form 1065/K-1 paperwork I have no Idea how to do. * She handles my single member LLC paperwork and advises me on how to better do my 1099-income related deductions year after year. * She reminds me to file state-related franchise tax forms related to the LLCs every year. * She helps me prepare for estimated tax payments by doing the math for me and giving me pre-filled tax payments, and reminding me to talk to her about the Jan 15 one at the tail end of the year to fix any discrepencies in estimated vs actual income come year end. * She always advises me every year on new slightly more complicated tax measures I could take (Such as creating an S-CORP for myself if 1099 becomes a long term employment situation for me), but she is also very understanding of my preference to keep things simple as long as possible (and two LLCs plus 1099 income is already complicated enough as is!). Sumi is very kind and helpful, always. And, she always does her homework for me, as there have been some non-trivial / abnormal tax situations related to the dual-member LLC where she has gone back to tax books and tax peers to double check her advice before giving it. Sumi is one of those rare professionals who makes your life easier rather than more complex and makes you very glad you found her rather than someone less helpful or too over-your-head with tax legalese speak.

This has been one of the most seamless and genuinely positive experiences I've had on the financial side of my life.

It was very easy dropping off my taxes. The staff here kept in touch with me while they were…read moreworking on my taxes. However, when they were ready, I was not informed. Thankfully, I called to follow up and made an appointment. My frustration occurred when I showed up, and I wasn't on the schedule, but the appointment had been noted on my file. So I had to wait to be seen. I was on my lunch break, so after 25 minutes, I had to leave. I did not appreciate this. I received many apologies for the mix-up, but each one came with an excuse: it's just really busy/crazy this time of the year. I don't want excuses! Take responsibility! Coming in a few days before the 15th, I found them filing extensions for walk-ins. The cost will be deducted from their preparation fees. I think that's great. In the end, my taxes were completed to my satisfaction, I enjoyed working with the tax preparer, and I will come back next year.
