In the midst of the pandemic, my fianc?e and I made a choice to get married sooner than later. With all local agencies closed, Aida Real was my first call. Marriage licenses were on allocation to a few select providers. Aida made a point to call me with regular updates to ensure that we were able to secure a license. When the day came to get married, she was able to support us with a late appointment. Aida was professional and informative through the entire process. She went the extra mile to ensure the ac
In a time of great stress, my fianc?e and I were not sure if we would be married before all government buildings shut down to offer marriage licenses. Ms. Aida was patient, calm, and collected as she walked us through the process when we found her office last-minute. We are eternally grateful for her exceptional service.
Aida and her team are great! They are welcoming and professional. They take the time to adress any doubts and always treat their clients with respect.
Awesome thank u aida ????best tax lady
She was very helpful for us! We are from out of state and tried to get out marriage license and we weren't able to get it with anyone else until November!!! Our wedding is 10/10/20 and she was able to get us one on 10/8/20. THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR BEING THE HERO FOR US!
Aida Real Notary is unprofessional. We live out of town and called three days before. She told us that she opens at 10:00. We showed up and she wasn't even there. She told us she would be 20 minutes. We waited over 40 minutes and when I called she told me she would be 15 minutes and started giving me an attitude like it was my fault. Even on the sport she had put she would be back at 10:30.
Super courteous and very helpful. Will go back for any services she's able to do! Thank you very much.
The whole experience was amazing and quick and easy
She is the best, awesome service
She was rude for no reason. She told my younger cousin that he should have had his ID years ago, and that her kids have had theirs since they were five years old??. He obviously had no control over that at that age. All of that was unnecessary. Most people who go to notaries are there to authorize paperwork because they do not have IDs, so I have no idea why she was giving so much attitude. We were there to get his documents needed for his birth certificate application notarized, and I told her that over th
I highly recommand. She is so professional. My Taxes are well done. Extremely happy.
I filed taxes with Aida 2010, 2011, but 2012 I switched tax preparer because I moved 35 miles away, however, I came back to file 2013 because Aida is a truly professional, honest tax return preparer, her fees are reasonable, and always provide me with excellent service which makes me feel that she really cares for doing things right, highly recommended !
My husband and I have been coming to Aida for year's we love her we highly recommend her
Aida really took the time out to help me with my taxes at the very last minute, would 100% recommend.
Super professional and fast and affordable
Aida is unprofessional & has attitude , my paperwork I needed notarized was printed smaller then usual & she was upset gave me attitude because she couldn't see it & asked me in a rude tone why I printed it out like that , I kindly biting my tongue mentioned to her it was printed for me . Wouldn't go back wouldn't recommend this place .
I HAVE HAD VARIOUS TRANSLATIONS DONE HERE, AND I HAVE NEVER HAD A PROBLEM YOU NEED TO ASK THE GOVERNMENT AGENCIES IF " THEY HAVE ANY SPECIAL REQUIREMENTS" BEFORE YOU SEND THEM A BIRTH CERTIFICATE OR ANY TIME A DOCUMENT I LOOVE AIDA AND SHE HAS HELPED ME VERY MUCH!! GREAT SERVICE NOT ONLY FOR TRANSLATIONS BUT FOR TAXES TOO AND VERY INEXPENSIVE.. I REALLY RECOMMEND THIS PLACE!!!
Aida is the best! You need any tax, paralegal and notary services she is the one!
She came highly recommended, professional, straightforward she takes care of me every time, with no hassle. ??
I was shocked at how rude and condescending she was towards us for asking simple questions. I dont recommend going there for any services.
I've been coming to this place for 10 years and always been satisfied with their business..highly recommend real professional services ??
This office is not professional at all. They do not do quality work. I went to have a birth certificate translated and payed them, only to later find that the document was not valid. They made me waste my time and money. Save yourself a headache, do not go here!
Aida she is the best

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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
