I had a great experience with Accredited Debt Relief. From the start, the team was professional, patient, and very knowledgeable. They took the time to clearly explain all of my options and helped me feel confident about moving forward. The process was simple, and I appreciated how transparent and responsive they were every step of the way. Thanks to their help, I finally feel like I'm on the path to becoming debt-free. I highly recommend Accredited Debt Relief to anyone feeling overwhelmed by debt?they tru

Iam Very very pleased I found accredited debt relief! Tim Vega was/is a tremendous representative for the program. He explained everything to me chapter and verse. Was totally transparent with everything!! I so appreciate the honest to the point way of dealing with my current situation . This certainly showed me a path- a real path to getting after all this!!! Also the people I have spoken to so far have been very helpful and supportive. Time for me to take control!!! Jon

After much research and soul searching I contacted ADR. I was connected with James Brown who was patient, compassionate and helped me understand the program and process. Medical and other unexpected life circumstances required help. As a senior, while I find their fees higher, the comfort and confidence of using this service made sense. I highly recommend James Brown if you can work with him. Looking forward to a less stressful process than attempting this on my own. Don't hesitate.

Savannah is AWESOME! I was curious about making changes in my current financial plans so I called the number "just" to check the plans out. I was SOLD from the moment I heard the excitement and positive feedback from Savannah's strategies! She is the most pleasant caring customer service representative I have ever had the pleasure of talking with. She answered all my questions and concerns. I was very impressed with her representation on how she would help me with making the best decisions for my current is

I just happened upon Accredited Debt Relief by googling. I am very glad I found them. Brandon was the man that assisted me. He is an awesome communicator. A very personable, professional and supportive man! He solved my debt issues by getting me into a debt settlement program. I am grateful for his patience and helping me onto my road to becoming debt free. I highly recommend Accredited Debt Relief

Jim was very positive, made you feel at ease, understood and sympathized with people having money issues and explained how predatory lenders take advantage of you. His approach was positive and respected you and made no preconceived notions about you. He would always made sure you understood before moving on. He was the best, also we had phone issues he be calling you back

Bo was an amazing help. He explained the debt relief program in detail, even most of the stuff in the on-boarding video. He was very professional and nice. Very understanding and helpful with all my accounts I needed added. For some reason, some loan accounts from certain businesses do not show up in many systems. My high interest accounts did not show. Bo was awesome with helping me add them. (Personally I believe that it is just another way for these companies to trap you, making you feel there is

Chris at Accredited spent a good amount of time understanding my situation and came up with a plan that worked for me. He explained everything in detail and answered all my questions. Everyone that I have spoken with at Accredited were extremely kind, friendly and supportive. They have weekly classes that you can attend to get help and hear from other people in the program. I have already recommended Accredited to a couple of people.

I called Accredited looking in desperation for some debt relief! Celina was so kind and understanding from the very beginning. She made me feel very comfortable and confident that the debt relief program would work to help my situation. Celina explained the program thoroughly and made sure to answer all my questions and concerns. I feel excited about going forward with this program and was very grateful that I called and Celina was there to help me. Thanks!

The customer service was exemplary! I was in contact with Josie and Barra, both were extremely patient and knowledgeable. There were times during the long conversation, I was a little anxious and I explained my concerns to the ladies. They listened and addressed the concerns and I felt reassured I had made the right decision. They were extremely supportive and professional. If I could make a suggestion to enhance the procedure, I would suggest advising the prospective client the ?time involved? to complete

I can't say enough on how professional and thoughful the agent I worked with handled himself. He made sure that I had all my questions answered and that I understood all of the information I was presented with. It's no surprise that this agency consistently gets five star reviews, it is well deserved. I would highly recommend this firm.

I was drowning and had no idea what to do. I went online and used TrustPilot to lead me to Accredited. Nina was awesome and provided me with all the information I needed to take my first step towards financial freedom. Very professional and reassuring. The entire process was hassle free and honestly a breath of fresh air. Highly recommend anyone who's struggling to make the call

I was reluctant to make the initial phone call. But somehow found the courage to do so. Glad that I did because the gentleman Bradley that answered my call was understanding to my situation and I started to feel comfortable with the whole process. After that I spoke to a young lady Keisha who explained a little more of what to expect and made sure that I understood the process. I am so happy that I made the call and am now on my way to help clear my debt.

I've just started the process with Accredited and I was so nervous to even call. It took me a week to get up the courage. I am so glad I did. The initial call was easy, and Julie was so sweet and so informative. I felt automatic relief after talking with them. If you're on the fence about calling, just do it, you owe it to yourself to at least call and see how they can help!!

Tyler Asher is truly one the best, if not the best company reps I have encountered, and I have encountered many. The entire conversation, which spanned a week or so, was nothing but pleasant and comfortable. He answered my questions, put up with my rants, understood my fears and misgivings and walked me through the whole debt relief process like a friend. He did what he said he would do. He gave me a deal I couldn't refuse, even after I shopped around for a week. I made a spreadsheet. He won. I recommend hi

Owen was amazing. He took the time to explain and go over everything and answer all questions. Very down to earth guy that cares about his clients. I am happy that I decided to go with Accredited vs the other companies. Was not talked down or made feel a certain way. When I was done and we signed up there was a huge weight lifted knowing that there is a plan in pkace

This was honestly a very great experience. I did get overwhelmed in the phone call, but I was assured that my emotions were valid and that I was doing the best I could with the resources I had. I am very thankful that I received such a kind soul on the other end of the line, James Stevenot Jr, as I do believe that it made the experience 1000% better.

Korey was awesome! I want to thank her for being so helpful and kind. She truly made my day! I felt like a load has been lifted off my shoulders. Thanks so much! Robin ??

Daniel was very helpful and explained everything to me thoroughly ( especially terms I've never heard of before). Told me to send over paperwork from an account that didn't show up on my credit report amd that he was pretty sure it could also get worked into my consolidation ( I really hope so because that is one of my biggest debt issues )....we shall see in the next day or so if they can really add that in.

Tyler was absolutely exceptional in his dealings with my hesitancy. I kindly followed up until I was fully informed of your product. I have a new peace of mind with step work to get my financial house back in order by the end of this year. I hope to share results at that time as well. This is only Day 1 but I believe! Thank you Tyler

My experience with Accredited Debt Relief was easily the most pleasant I have ever had with any service company without physical face to face contact. My situation was borderline desperate. The debit relief consultant who answered my call soon put me at ease. She was patient and understanding right from the start. It is a process requiring extended conversations; one was over three hours. The tone of "let us help" was uniform throughout. The information requirements and procedures used to formulate a plan f

When I contacted Accredited , I was responded to very quickly and securely . I had already done my due diligence researching the best debt relief programs , and Accredited was at the top of the list in customer satisfaction , full disclosure reliability and adherence to federal guidelines . Celina Nava gave me a full breakdown of the program , got me approvals quickly after carefully going over my debt load , and sent me a very easy to read and sign agreement, with a great follow-up from Theresa , who wal

Evan proctor I will never forget the name! He was exceptional, informative, understanding, and sympathetic to my situation I will always remember his genuine carrying demeanor. He helped me to understand the program step by step was very patient cuz Lord knows I had a thousand questions but again he found me very amusing which I'm glad because I was very nervous about it but he reassured me consistently throughout the process give that man a raise! Thank you so much and I will pass the word on about this pr

I had the pleasure of meeting Kevin Graham from Accredited Debt Relief. He made me and my wife feel right at home. We even share some laughs. I give Kevin 5 stars because he knows his job. Nice and friendly, understanding. Doesn't mind repeating something you don't understand. Hands up to Kevin. ??????

Allen was wonderful. He was very professional, courteous and took the time to explain how the program works. He showed empathy regarding my situation and made me feel comfortable and that there is light at the end of the tunnel.

My initial contact was made by Colby. I couldn't have asked for a more polite,professional, caring, and informative person to begin my debt resolution. She was so wonderful to work with, I am older 74 and she was so helpful and patient with me throughout our conversations. I had to contact Accredited three other times in setting up my account and every person I talked to treated me in such a caring manner. I have never dealt with any company in my life that had such employees who all were so helpful and si

I was incredibly anxious when I reached out to Accredited Dept Relief, unsure whether I would qualify for assistance or if the program would be the right fit for me. Thankfully, I was fortunate to speak with an outstanding representative who walked me through everything with such clarity and care. Jocelyn?s attention to detail and thorough explanation made all the difference- I truly felt a huge weight lifted off my shoulders, and for the first time in a long while, I could finally breath again. I'm deeply

My experience with Loyd was fantastic. He was very knowledgeable and was extremely patient with me. He explained step by step the process step I would be going through. Loyd also explained step by step how much debt I had accumulated, how much I would paying and how long it would take to resolve my dept issue. Loyd also told me about your dashboard and he helped me set it up. what started out as a very difficult situation for me turned into a good experience . Thank you again Loyd for your patience, your

Will was very helpful and really kind! I was a bit nervous about the whole process but he walked me through it really concisely. He really made me feel like I was having a simple conversation with a friend. Still relatively new to the program so I'll see how it goes!

Representative was knowledgeable, very informative, not one unanswered questions. He was very professional and explained the whole process to me step by step. Was very glad to find this program, my stress is at 1 year low. Im thankful to .r. Dugan and feel hopeful now this will be paid and off my plate. Thank you, I appreciate it. Cheryl Mall

I reluctantly entered my information and received a call from Joseph who immediately put me at ease. He patiently took me through the process and calm my fears. He did not judge or condemn me. But let me know that it is going to be okay. Best decision I ever made. I would definitely recommend this company 100%, and already did to 2 acquaintances. Thank you.

Christina was amazing and so helpful! She explained everything in detail and made sure I understood. I originally thought I was applying for a loan....thank the Lord he put Christina in my path. One that is going to lead to a repayment plan I can afford without putting me deeper in debt! I finally feel like I can breathe and have a realistic and affordable path for my future! Thank you so much!

It was well worth the time it took to sign up. Especially w the guidance of Clifton! He was very polite, knowledgeable, patient and answered all of my questions. He was very understanding and compassionate about my situation. It was an extreme pleasure talking to him. I am looking forward to working w Accredited in cleaning up my finances and having peace of mind.

Crystal K, was awesome! She helped make this experience such a breeze and really put my mind at ease. If anyone needs help with debt consolidation this is the company to do it with! Especially with such an awesome consultant as Crystal. Thank you again Crystal for helping me to finally put my debt behind me. Also, my private student loan is being taken care of too! After finding out how much I've been getting charged in interest, this alone would be worth it!

I just started getting Assistance and the agents are so kind and already make a great plan for me to Assist in my need. I call to asked a question and right away they Assist me with what I need. So far I think I got the best people I got to walk with me hand to hand in this matter.

Jae from Accredited was absolutely amazing and helpful thru this difficult time. He took the time to explain the process thoroughly and answer all of our questions along the way. To know that people are there for you 24/7 makes a huge difference. Though this is still fresh in the process we are very hopeful for the end result of being debit free to start our lives over. I would highly recommend them if you are in the same situation

They were a great help and were very understanding of my position with my extremely high debt. Vivian was very polite and professional with no judgements made during our phone call. I am impressed with her advice with my situation, and she guided me throughout the process. She keeps in touch with me to let me know promptly when there are any changes to my account.

Lisa was kind and extremely helpful in explaining all the information about the program. She was patient with all the questions and concerns that my husband and I had. I appreciated both the initial and the follow up that she did. This was a difficult decision for us to make ,and Lisa was thorough and understanding throughout .I would not hesitate to recommend her services to friends or family. I look forward to being debt free in just a couple of years.

I was very well taken care of by Jamal, my customer service representative, and he answered all my questions. He was patient, Compassionate, supportive and encouraging. He guided me in the direction that I needed to go for debt relief. Great organization!

She kept that demeanor through out the entire phone call. I'm so glad that I finally made the call and that I got Ari on the other end o

I took a leap of faith and reached out because I'm really struggling financially and felt like there was nothing I can do to get ahead. I reached out and Jennifer was extremely helpful. She was so kind and understanding to my situation with no judgement at all. I'm nervous yet excited to see how things will work out moving forward.

I found myself in debt and was looking for a way out. I found Accredited Debt Relief online. I wasn't sure if they would be able to help. I took a chance and completed my application. Within minutes Austin called and assured me he could help. Long story short, am able to relax and breathe a lot easier. Step by step he explained how he program worked. The nice lady who helped me with the online application was just as sweet and helpful. Thank you so much.

So far so good! ?? Worth the 25% cut they take for actually being able to pay off my credit cards in 2 years instead of just maintaining maxed out cards and paying Capitol One and Discover that without ever paying off. The only gamble is if I get a great job where I can pay it off in a couple of months and tack on their cut - but worth the peace of mind since it's really hard to find work that pays well in my field these days. Took a couple hours on the phone but was explained thoroughly and got a lot of ge

Ashlyn gave detailed answers to my questions in a professional and pleasant manner! I'm excited about this important step I've taken in my life with Accredited Debt Relief! Luckily, she checked and stated Accredited has working relationships with every credit card company listed on my credit report! I look forward to making my payments through Accredited and more than likely graduating from the program in half the planned time!

Very happy with my experience. We had a little hic-up at the start but my contact Jay took care of the issue right away, very pleased. If you need debt help this is a good place to start.

I was definitely skeptical and on the defensive even though I had researched and chose this company myself! I knew I needed help. Leuel, my contact, guided me patiently those the whole process. I had tons of questions and needed alot repeated explanations. He was kind and had a great sense of humor. I just wanted to be sure and I feel like I made the best choice. I spoke with many different people due to my own technical issues and each one was kind, courteous, and fun to speak with! I love this compan

I'm just beginning with this program. After talking with Cameron, a lot of my stress has been relieved. I feel very confident that I'm in good hands. Cameron is a real lifesaver. I'm so looking forward to being not only debt free but also stress-free. On to a brighter future. Thanks to Cameron and his team. I've only just begun but I highly recommend Cameron, his team and the program.

I contacted Accredited while doing some research into debt consolidation and was assigned to work Jason Fronjian. Jason was incredibly helpful and knowledgeable throughout the call, but when he asked if I was ready to start the process and have my credit run - 9 minutes after the phone call started - I said I needed a day or two to think it over because I was still doing research. The immediate change in Jason's tone and attitude was instantaneous. He got short with me, mentioned how I wasn't going to find

I couldn't be more happy with our experience! Danielle was amazing. She was very positive and encouraging, she was so personable and very nice. She really wanted what was best for our family. We appreciate you so much Danielle. So happy we found Accredited Debt Relief and one of the best, Danielle!!.

Noble was very thorough in explaining the process to me, as I was very nervous taking the first step. After reviewing all info and watching all videos he sent me I decided this was the best option for me! I appreciate your patience in the process and am looking forward to the results. Thanks, Kelli

The representative was very knowledgeable, reassuring and willing to listen to my financial situation. Even gave me advice on how to handle another debt issue i had. All call centers are in the US answered my Americans. Big plus

While the first call did take a really long time. I appreciated every step and felt like I got the best plan for me. I also learned a lot Kevin was amazing! Nina was just as amazing! They even gave me tips on how to start getting my credit score back up. After a number of medical issues things got very overwhelming,I felt shame and stress. They never once made me feel anything but positive answered every question and I had a lot because we have all heard of the predator debt relief companies. That is not th

I was very nervous about this process. Karen, was very informative and patient. She would explain and go over my questions 2 or three times so that I was ready to move to next step. I'm in the beginning stage of getting my finances in check and regain a feeling of security.

Wonderful experience working with Accredited Debt Relief, and more importantly working with David V! I felt it much easier to breathe when he worked out a debt program that was doable for me..and saving $565 per month on my payments to my creditors.. I have a clear vision of my obligations, and know in a few years my debts will be paid!! Don't delay...go to Accredited for help! Thank you David for your expertise and kind nature! You have been a blessing!

I am so glad I called, and wish I had done so sooner! Heath was excellent at listening to my needs and answering my questions. He was knowledgeable and kind. The plan he gave me is very manageable for me , and I was able to work with him to make a couple of adjustments that worked best for me. It feels as if a weight has been lifted. The process was easy to get it all set up and completely handled over the phone and email. Highly recommend!

So far, each person I have had contact with has been exceptional. I have a peaceful feeling of trust that I made the proper choice for my circumstances. Eric was very patient and an excellent communicator. The lovely woman who called (cannot remember her name) was a prime communicator. I appreciated all of their help and concern.

I am beyond grateful for the help I received. Gary was amazing! He spent an HOUR AND A HALF on the phone with me and didn't make me feel like I was wasting his time. I was very anxious going into this and he made me feel very comfortable and answered all of my questions. I'm now set to be debt free within 2-4 years. I couldn't be happier!

I think I speak for thousands of people when I say no one considers a debt consolidation of any kind but life throws curve balls, it can be challenging and it can have many hardships. Taking control of finances and being responsible often means taking gray area unknown risk/ steps. It definitely had me anxious. I applied for this program and the phone rang and I let it go to voicemail im not going to lie I was skeptical. I was referred by a friend and after reading reviews I finally got courage to answer D

Words cannot describe how incredible my experience with Steven was! He spoke to me like a cherished human; he didn't speak as an automaton trying to sell a thing for a commission. We laughed and discussed real life and how my husband and I got to where we are and what brought us to the program. He was tireless in answering my questions, and I am confident that I may call for clarity at any time, and I will be answered joyfully. I feel supported, and I am so EXCITED to be on this journey to debt freedom, wi

I was very skeptical when I called for help with my credit card debt.. but the person on the other end was so understanding and helpful. He kept reassuring me that I could have relief and peace back in my life. He explained how the program works and answered all of my questions. I felt so much better when I finished enrolling into the program and I'm looking forward to be completely out of debt from credit cards. So thankful, a blessing from God.

I am so happy to have joined First Lake Law Group. I spoke to Jill Wortman who was very helpful in getting me started. It was very easy to understand everything she said. I'm happier now than ever to have a payment that works for me to where I can start saving. I will definitely recommend First Lakes Law Group to anyone who is in debt. I will tell them it's very easy and understandable. I want to again thank Jill Wortman for turning my life around.

Fred Brown was amazing to work with. He was extremely helpful from start to finish, and I really appreciated how patient and informative he was throughout the entire process. He took the time to explain everything clearly, answered all of my questions without hesitation, and made sure I understood each step before moving forward. He was also very transparent- upfront about all the details, timelines, and expectations, which made the whole experience feel smooth and stress-free.

I was treated well during my sign up, and my representative was excellent. He took time to explain over and over how the program works and what my rights are. I felt very comfortable talking with him. He answered many questions I had about the program and made sure that I understood the answers. I just started with the program and so far, so good.

It's so special when someone?s kindness and understanding can have such a big effect. Juan?s ability to put me at ease and make me feel heard and supported really shined through. That kind of empathy can turn even the most nerve-wracking situation into something more manageable. He truly went above and beyond to make me feel comfortable, and that's something I will always remember. Thank you Juan Diaz. You're amazing.

Megan immediately put me at ease. She explained the program and my options in a clear and organized way. Megan answered all my questions, even those I didn't realize I had. She was thorough and made me feel that I'd made the right decision about my financial future.

My husband and I have received great help and care from Austin Wicker. Austin's genuine concern for us and our situation was meaningful and productive. He treated us with respect and empathy, listened attentively to our needs, made us feel valued and understood, addressed our concerns, and provided a solution that exceeded our expectations. Austin explained the process in a way we could understand. Although we are one day into the process, we are confident that our debts will be resolved in a positive way.

No seriously, if you have been thinking about it but unsure, just call Accredited and ask for the help of Kevin Ashworth. He makes you KNOW that you are making the right move when you call from the energy in his voice. he is very very thorough. As he spoke, I wrote questions but the more he spoke I had to cross them out, he leaves NOTHING uncovered. I feel very confident about getting my debt handled the right way. I couldn't be happier with the options I had and the service that I received from the entire

When I called for information, I got a lovely lady who took the time to explain everything and answered my questions. And never rushed the conversation. She made me feel very comfortable to make my decision. I appreciate Tiera Taylor taking her time with me .

Where do I start? From her empathy right down to her professionalism, Gabrielle provided an amazing service and was able to find a resolution unique to my situation. She was patient listening to my situation, and made me feel heard and understood. I also appreciated her advice and knowledge on fighting debt, and understanding creditors in general. She explained all the services they would be providing, plus all the necessary steps moving forward really well. Thank you Gabrielle, you were a big step in help

Kylie was incredibly insightful, sincerely understanding of my situation, and completely down to earth. I called just to see what option i had available. She knew just what I was dealing with and gave me options that would help me that i would be very comfortable with. She never pressured me into anything. My current situation isn't ideal, but she really helped me so I can finally get on the other side of it.

My representative was Arial and she was excellent. She is very knowledgeable and understanding. She explained the plan in great detail in a way I could understand. I strongly recommend ACCREDITED DEBT RELIEVE..

I am sending this message about the service that the person that helped me with my problem. I am not sure if I am supposed to mention his name in this message. I will just call him Mr. F for now.

Marie Taylor was the best. She explained everything to me very slowly to where I didn't feel like anything was being rushed passed me. She also made sure that I was happy and trustworthy in the end with my decisions. I felt as if I was speaking more with a friend rather than someone who just represented a company.

Wow! My husband and I worked with Todd and we both found him to be incredibly kind and helpful. I was very fortunate to having Todd to answer the phone when I made that very difficult phone call.

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.
