Customer Reviews

I'm a contract graphic designer, and finances/taxes were the last thing I wanted to spend my time learning about and navigating, though it is an unquestionably crucial part of running a business. I tried it on my own initially and became overwhelmed quickly. I am so happy to have found ABP and that I have a specific team assigned to me. They are quick to respond to any questions I have and I know I am in good hands. Working with them allows me focus on other important areas of my business. I should have don

I'm a partner of a small (yet mighty) marketing firm, and the expertise Andrea and her team has brought to our business in just a few short months has been instrumental in getting us organized and running efficiently. We use them as a full service accounting dept and outsourced CFO. They do everything from our taxes, to payroll, to A/P, and business consulting. I trust them to be on top of EVERYTHING. They are proactive, extremely communicative, and generous with their ideas and time. So grateful to have fo

Andrea and her team have really raised the bar on what an accounting firm should be. As a small business owner that does not like accounting, I have come to trust and rely on A&BP for everything from billing to tax prep to strategic consulting on business growth. They are as buttoned up as they are approachable, and know this business inside and out. I would highly recommend the firm!

Andrea and her team are awesome! Very professional, responsive and have been a tremendous value to our clinic. I am a physician and my partner Sherri and I run a wellness clinic. Since we hired Accounting and Business Partners, Andrea and her team have taken a load of work off of Sherri and I so we can focus more on patient care and less on tedious administrative duties. They are worth every penny and have paid for their services by allowing us to see more patients and provide better service!

Andrea and her team have been providing invaluable services to my business for the past ten years. They are prompt, detail-oriented, and keep things running smoothly. During the COVID pandemic they have gone above and beyond to help make sure that my business is financially protected and that we pursue all available financial options. I highly recommend them to everyone!

Andrea and her team are the best. As a business owner, I need to focus on my business, and not worry about bookkeeping, payroll and taxes. They help my immediate needs and keep my long term goals in mind with everything they do. I can't overstate how valuable they are to me and my business. Highly recommend Accounting and Business Partners

Frequently Asked Questions

What qualifications should I look for in a CPA?

Look for a Certified Public Accountant (CPA) license, which ensures they’ve passed rigorous exams and meet state requirements. Check for relevant experience in your industry, additional certifications like CFA or CMA, and membership in professional organizations like the AICPA. Verify their credentials through state licensing boards.

How do I find a CPA in my area?

Use online directories like the AICPA, CPAverify, or state CPA societies. Search platforms like Yelp or Google for local CPAs with reviews. Ask for referrals from business associates, friends, or financial advisors. Local chambers of commerce can also provide recommendations.

What’s the difference between a CPA and an accountant?

A CPA is a licensed professional who has passed the CPA exam and met state requirements for education and experience. An accountant may lack this certification and could have varying levels of expertise. For complex tasks like tax audits or financial reporting, a CPA is typically more qualified.

How do I know if a CPA specializes in my needs?

Ask about their experience with your specific financial needs, such as tax preparation, small business accounting, or estate planning. Review their website or LinkedIn for case studies or client testimonials. Inquire about their client base to ensure they handle similar financial situations.

Should I check a CPA’s reviews before hiring?

Yes, reviews provide insight into a CPA’s reliability, communication, and performance. Check platforms like Google, Yelp, or the Better Business Bureau for client feedback. Look for patterns in reviews, but verify their authenticity, as some may be biased or outdated.

How can I verify a CPA’s license?

Visit your state’s Board of Accountancy website or use CPAverify.org to check a CPA’s license status. Confirm their license is active and check for any disciplinary actions or complaints. This ensures they’re in good standing and meet professional standards.

What questions should I ask during a CPA consultation?

Ask about their experience with your financial needs, fee structure, availability, and communication style. Inquire how they handle tax filings, audits, or financial planning. Ask for references or examples of similar work to assess their expertise and fit.

How much should I expect to pay for a CPA’s services?

Fees vary based on location, services, and complexity. Basic tax preparation may cost $150-$500, while business accounting or audits can range from $1,000 to $10,000+. Request a detailed fee structure upfront and compare quotes from multiple CPAs.

Can I work with a CPA remotely?

Yes, many CPAs offer remote services through secure online platforms for document sharing and virtual consultations. Ensure they use encrypted tools for data security. Remote CPAs can be effective if they understand your local tax laws or business regulations.

How do I assess a CPA’s communication skills?

During consultations, evaluate their ability to explain complex financial concepts clearly. Ask sample questions about taxes or financial strategies and note their responsiveness and clarity. Good communication ensures you understand their advice and fosters a productive relationship.

What red flags should I watch for when screening a CPA?

Beware of CPAs who guarantee specific tax refunds, lack a valid license, or have disciplinary actions on record. Avoid those with poor communication, vague fee structures, or negative reviews highlighting unethical behavior. Always verify their credentials independently.

Should I choose a CPA from a large firm or a solo practitioner?

Large firms offer more resources and specialized teams but may charge higher fees. Solo practitioners often provide personalized service and lower costs but may have limited availability. Choose based on your needs, budget, and preference for personalized attention.

How often should I meet with my CPA?

For individuals, annual meetings for tax preparation may suffice. Businesses may need quarterly or monthly check-ins for bookkeeping, tax planning, or financial reporting. Discuss your needs upfront to establish a meeting schedule that aligns with your financial goals.

Can a CPA help with both personal and business finances?

Yes, many CPAs handle both, but confirm their expertise in both areas. Ask about their experience managing personal taxes and business accounting simultaneously. Ensure they can balance both without compromising attention to your specific financial needs.

What should I do if I’m not satisfied with my CPA?

Discuss concerns directly with your CPA to resolve issues. If unresolved, check your contract for termination terms. Seek a new CPA by researching reviews, credentials, and referrals. Request your financial records to ensure a smooth transition to a new professional.
