Aldaris CPA Group

Edwin and the team at Aldaris are fantastic. They?ve helped my husband and I with our taxes for years. In the last 2 years they?ve helped us figure out how to pay taxes quarterly and partnered with our financial advisor to help us connect our retirement plans with our tax plans and make sure we?re doing all the right things for our goals. It?s been helpful to have them as partners - especially given how complex taxes can be and how often things change. Edwin, Ruth and everyone at Aldaris are experts you ca

Our experience with Edwin was exceptional. He is easy to work with, explains things well, and made our tax returns painless. His communication was excellent. We have worked with another firm in the past, and this experience was worlds better. We plan to continue to work with him in the future. We felt his price was fair given the personal attention, rapid responses to our questions, availability of his team, and professionalism.

I'm really glad I hired Aldaris to file my tax returns! Edwin was very responsive, reviewed my paperwork thoroughly, and educated me on ways to maximize my refund. I also found their tax software to be very easy to use, making the whole process so much easier. You'll be in good hands!

This is the second year working with Edwin and his team for my business and personal taxes and it has been a great experience. I really appreciate their thoroughness in preparing and filing my taxes after catastrophic experiences with two other accountants. I highly recommend Aldaris CPA Group!

Edwin del Carpio and the Aldaris staff are great to work with -- knowledgeable, patient and always quick to respond to questions about tax rules and procedures. I especially appreciate the ability to work with them on-line. We are in good hands.

Our small non-profit organization has relied on Aldaris CPA Group for a number of years. The Board of Directors is deeply appreciative of Edwin's expertise, patience, and willingness to share his time and knowledge with our officers. We highly recommend his services, and are grateful for the years of service he has provided us.

Edwin, Ruth and the team at Aldaris have always been very helpful, kind and patient. As a new small business owner with very limited experience they graciously and patiently walked me through so much of the financial/tax world. I've been so grateful for their help over the years and would highly recommend them to anyone!

Edwin and Ruth are the best tax consultants that I have ever had. They are thorough, responsive, and have the careful attention to detail that has been unprecedented for me in the past. They receive my highest recommendations!

My husband and I have used Aldaris for the past few years. We found them very prompt in their responses as well as completing our taxes proficiently and professionally. We will continue to use their services in the future and highly recommend this company.

Edwin is a fantastic CPA and I highly, highly recommend him. He has been my tax advisor for the last 5 years and every single year I am so thankful to be working with him. Edwin is exceptionally knowledgeable about tax nuances and how to get me the best deductions every single year. He also is very willing to say when he wants to do more research on a very specific, rare potential tax treatment and come back to me. He has multiple times spoken to other?valuable advisors across his extensive network to verif

Edwin has been my CPA for two years, and I won?t be leaving anytime soon. His advice and knowledge have been invaluable during very difficult times in my life that carried complicated financial implications. He?s responsive, efficient, and overall incredibly friendly and warm, something I needed during these hard times. Hire him to get piece of mind that your finances are in great hands!

We have worked with Edwin and Aldaris for years. Edwin's attention to detail and responsiveness are remarkable. He is dedicated to tax optimization and ensuring that you understand all of the moving pieces. We can't recommend working with Aldaris enough, both on the personal and business side!

My husband and I have worked with Edwin at the Aldaris Group several years now. Our tax situation was quite complicated when we first came to him (we were recently married and merging finances), but he was quick, responsive to questions, and excellent at communication. Really recommend this group, but especially Edwin and his team!

Edwin is fast, efficient, and communicates thoroughly throughout the tax filing process.

I?m a general contractor and I have some professional skills, that aid me in my business, but unfortunately bookkeeping/taxes are not in my repertoire. The same for my wife that is a baker. Edwin and his team, through diligence and hard work, methodically went through years of our mess to find thousands of dollars? worth of missed tax benefits. To date, Aldaris Group has paid for themselves by correcting one year?s worth of Federal taxes, and they?re still going, we?re even looking at state taxes. Edwin

As a financial advisor I share a number of clients with Aldaris and Edwin has always taken very good care of our clients. What I really like about Edwin is when he has an opinion on a tax interpretation, he has actually read the language directly from the internal revenue code, there's no guessing. He goes directly to the source so he can have the most informed decision! I also appreciate that Edwin isn't afraid to tell clients what they need to hear, even if it's bad news. If you like working with someone

After having moved to California almost a decade ago, I had submitted to believe there was no way a regular middle class tax paying citizen could not owe money at the end of the year. After trying everything from mainstream accounting companies to smaller ones, they all just explained that's the cost of making money, no efforts on explanation or education through consultation. This changed when I came across Aldaris, Edwin in particular took time to explain in great detail on what was happening, actions I

The Aldaris Group (Edwin specifically) has been an incredible resource for our family. He has made tax planning, prep, etc so painless and easy. We have worked with him for a few years now and have never regretted it. We were originally referred through friemds who also have had great experiences working with him. We can't say enough great things

Edwin and his team at Aldaris are professional, responsive, and easy to work with! They helped me file my taxes as an independent contractor after years of being a W2 employee. I plan on working with them again for future tax seasons.

Aldaris!! Edwin is amazing at what he does. This team is super thorough and diligent on getting the most of your tax deductibles while keeping me in line with what is real and what is not. They are on top of their game, knowing all the hoops and loops of the tax game. I really appreciate how efficient quick books are and the reminders to get these daunting tasks done. Edwin you are a Rockstar and I appreciate your skills with the books!

Fast, efficient, and dependable! Edwin does great work and we have appreciated working with him for all our tax and tax planning needs for several years now.

We've used Aldaris the last two years and have been very pleased. Edwin is always responsive and helpful when we have questions. The returns have been done properly with no issues. Thanks, Edwin!

We have worked with Edwin and team the last 3 years on our tax filing as well as overall financial advice. During that time we have had a very positive experience with everyone at Aldaris group, including working through some tricky tax problems while my partner was freelancing. Edwin has also consistently set aside time to answer any specific questions in a detailed and responsive manner. We'll continue to work with them moving forward.

Running a small business can be painful when it comes to dealing with taxes. I get the most thorough service and advice from Aldaris CPA group! Edwin really knows his stuff and is extremely thorough in his knowledge of tax codes and laws. Aldaris handles both my corp taxes as well as my personal taxes and I get hands down the best service possible! If you are running a business, contact Aldaris today!

I definitely hit the jackpot with Edwin and Aldaris. I came to him on a referral from a friend after years of having a family member work my taxes, so safe to say he had his work cut out for him. After going back 4 years Edwin remedied the issues promptly at a fair price and explained what happened and what needed to be done to get me up to date. Edwin is incredibly professional and knowledgeable and does a great job at explaining the tax codes and laws and how they apply to my business in different scena

They are incredibly efficient and pay very close attention to detail, which I appreciate so much. Everything is on time, and I also appreciate their friendliness as well as their accuracy.

Aldaris has been a great asset for my business over the past 6 years. They handle all of our state tax filings, federal tax filings, payroll taxes and monthly bookkeeping. They are always friendly, professional and on-time. Aldaris automates my finances so I can focus on growing the business!

I used to do my own taxes until they got complicated faster than I could keep up with. Unfortunately I didn't realize it until I had made a real mess of things. Edwin has totally set me on track. Very responsive and fast, and got me a bunch of money back to boot! Should have signed up years ago.

Edwin was professional, responsive and knowledgable. My husband works for multiple different companies (6-7 depending on the year), and is an independent contractor for one company. Needless to say, our tax situation is somewhat unusual and Edwin was able to help make sure we got the most out of our return. He also had a much better understanding of tax law than the CPA we used in the past. We will definitely be using Edwin again!

Reading review after review can be exhausting when trying to decide who to trust with your taxes so let me just stop you from searching any further! Edwin and his associates are absolutely the best. Even during tax season, he makes you feel like you are his only client. He is incredibly personable, knowledgeable, and has saved my husband and I $$$ with his expert advice. Aldaris group makes it easy easy easy to manage document uploads and communication with their online platform... I can?t believe I used to

Absolutely top notch. Edwin totally saved my bacon, so fast and so competently. He's extremely easy to talk to and get along with, and super flexible with his time, no matter how busy your schedule. Networks and connections are a large part of why you hire any given professional, and Edwin has contacts all throughout the financial sector. He's very generous with them, selflessly calling in favors and sending business to these contacts for the benefits of his clients. Thanks, Edwin!

Edwin has been my accountant for nearly a decade and I'd never hire anyone else. He's always done an excellent job and I'd recommend his services to anyone. Thanks Aldaris CPA!

Edwin at Aldaris CPA Group handled our most complicated tax return yet. He was incredibly responsive, well organized and answered all our questions. We were also pleased with the amount they charged for preparing our return. Other companies have charged us more in the past for a less complicated return. I would highly recommend Aldaris CPA Group and I will definitely be turning to them next year.

My partner and I went to Edwin for advice on our tax preparation, filing jointly or separately which would be better for us. For our first meeting, we were given the option to have a full consultation or free meet and greet where we discuss the Aldaris firm and gather information about our needs. We made this mistake of taking the full consultation. We didn?t have any questions that Edwin was able to answer without creating a tax plan that involved looking at our W2 and other numbers. So we started talking

Edwin lives and breathes taxes! He has an incredibly thoughtful and professional approach to taxes. He is a creative thinker based on his large base of knowledge of taxes. I know it sounds weird, but you can "see" him thinking about our questions, and finding the exact solution to benefit us. His prices are very reasonable and the work so far, outstanding.

I needed a new CPA after converting my business to an S Corp and Edwin came through, completing three complex returns in a very reasonable amount of time. He's always available to discuss a question I have and responds quickly and confidently to our inquiries. I was looking for a CPA that would do his best to minimize our tax burden and plan for the future and I'm happy to have chosen Edwin. Looking forward to many years as a client.

Edwin came a few months ago and has been a picture of professionalism and efficiency. His vast knowledge base has helped our office streamline our systems and in no time at all he has made a huge difference in our office. Edwin shows the kind of effectual and productive work that can be expected from a professional. It has been a pleasure watching him do what he does best and I would recommend his work to anyone in need of their services!

$600/hr. Does not review returns with you, just sends them for you to review yourself and approve. Will probably have a smartass reply to this review.

I had never worked with a CPA prior to this year but I will continue working with Edwin and Aldaris Group moving forward. Edwin really took the time to answer my questions and help me understand a tax matter that I had never dealt with before. I really appreciated how quick he was to respond and I felt very taken care of start to finish. I highly recommend Aldaris Group!

Easily the best crypto accountant and team. I?ve had awful experiences with accountants who say they know crypto and then I end up in a worse spot. Edwin has taken reigns and fixed previous years mistakes and saved me a TON of money. Should charge more. Thanks Edwin. Highly recommended.

I've filed my own taxes in the past, but a number of changes in the tax code and in our tax situation made this year significantly more complex, so we hired Aldaris. Edwin and his team quickly and efficiently handled everything, saving me from at least one costly mistake and greatly increasing my confidence.

Edwin is simply the best, not only in West Seattle but in accounting. Personal, joint, company, all that. Edwin is incredibly diligent and caring, and gets down to the bottom of every case. He works with integrity and empathy. Use him for whatever tax / accounting matter is important to you. You won't be disappointed. You get what you pay for in the best ways.

I can't say enough good things about Edwin and the Aldaris Group. He is much more than just an accountant. He is what a real accountant should be. Someone who helps you strategically manage your wealth to minimize taxes, risk exposure, while maximizing your wealth creation. He is extremely knowledgeable and creative in his solutions. He doesn't just think inside the box, he thinks well outside the box. His depth of knowledge on any tax question continues to confirm that he is the one I can trust with helpin

Edwin has been fantastic, promptly answering questions and catching my mistakes. Very personable and responsive. Thanks, Edwin!

With all the confusion surrounding the C.A.R.E.S. act and what it means for small businesses, I am grateful for the resource I have in Edwin. Without his guidance, I would remain completely confused about how to sort out the loan and grant options during this unsettling time. With my endless questions, I can count on Edwin's extreme patience and careful guidance to give me the information I need to make the smartest moves for our company. Thank you, Edwin, for your assistance in the past years and for untan

I've used Edwin's services for two tax seasons and have been amazed both years. He is thorough, communicates well and helps me understand the complexities of running a small business. Highly recommended.

Edwin is an incredibly professional, knowledgeable and personable CPA. I?m so impressed with his depth of understanding of our tax system, and ability to articulate the tricky pieces that are over my head. He takes time to explain your individual taxes and provides education (not advice or advising) to inform your decisions moving forward and how the decisions may or may not impact your taxes for the following year. My wife and I had a terrible experience with Angela Carigen (CPA also in Seattle) to an ext

We called to have a quote for responding to an IRS notice, and made the mistake of mentioning to Edwin how much the proposed amount to pay was. He gave us a quote of $6000 for responding to the notice with a single missing form! He totally tried to rip us off saying how IRS are backed up now and that he has direct contact to an agent there, which should not make any difference to our case. We only needed to respond in time to the notice. We called 10 other companies and not a single one gave us a quote like

Everything about this company has been professional, prompt and without glitches. A very superior service.

Edwin is just the type of pro-active, consultative - even mentor-like accountant we've been looking for. We are very much looking forward to a long relationship with Edwin and Aldaris. Best, Vince

Doing my taxes has always been nerve-racking. Last year I was able to pay off all my back taxes. This year, I can pay off my credit cards and start fresh. With all the good advice I have been given, I feel safe with Aldaris.

Aldaris has been so helpful with professional, timely and efficient tax returns and now a conversion from an LLC to an S Corp. I feel grateful for Edwin's expertise and confident that my finances are in the best hands!

I had a 5-star customer experience last year filing my taxes with Aldaris CPA. This year there has been a significant drop in customer service experience and in the quality of that service. I sent them a signed contract in March and paid 50% and did not hear from them until almost a month later, only because I followed up again two days before April 15th, asking about my status. They sent back a flurry of last-minute questions by email which I have been answering immediately as they come in for the past 1

We contacted the group and set up a meeting with Edwin to discuss the tax implications of an inheritance. He met with us and walked us through it. He promised to send us a summary of the meeting, which he did not in a timely manner. After some quick Googling, it later became clear from every single website on the topic that the law had changed. Because of this, the advice he gave us was flat out wrong and would result in a severe financial penalty. We then wrote to him to clarify the question, and he never

The folks were a pleasure to work with! They fixed a couple years worth of tax mistakes from my previous CPA and were very patient with me while I gathered all the info they needed. They communicated with me regularly and provided me with answers to all the questions I had. Looking forward to working with them next year.

Edwin and the Aldaris team are a great support for complex taxes! Prompt, reliable, and forthcoming with information and advice. I highly recommend.

Edwin is great to work with and I would refer him to anyone asking for an accountant. Edwin is very knowledgeable and answered all my questions in terms I could understand and in a timely manner.

As a small business owner, Edwin gives me piece of mind! He is responsive & exceptionally knowledgeable. Highly recommend his services & his team!

Edwin is the exact type of person you want handling your accounting. He thinks about all possible solutions and is very creative, I would highly recommend him.

I really appreciate Aldaris. They are professional, work quickly and are very kind. I feel the value is beyond the reasonable fee's, it is also the value of their years of experience and piece of mind of quality work.

Total pro. I handed him a dog's dinner of a refile, and he was able to make sense of it and get me a huge refund. The amount of work I had to do on my side was absolutely minimal -- maybe an hour in total -- and he was done within two days. Totally fantastic and would definitely go back to him for any further tax needs.

I've been working with Edwin for the last 3 years as I've had several complex return years. He is always knowledgeable and recommends the best approach for my situation.

I've been working with Edwin for several years. He is a treasure trove of knowledge and makes the tax season less of the headache that it is for me every year.

Edwin is responsive, timely, great at answering my questions when I don't understand something, motivating and a pleasure to work with! I highly recommend Aldaris!

Excellent. Edwin is very accessible for discussions.

Edwin took a look at our previous return and quickly found us a sizeable refund and processed it quickly. Thanks, Edwin!

Aldaris has been a huge resource getting taxes prepared quickly and correctly. Highly recommend working with them.

Edwin is a genuine pro, and he's been invaluable to my business.

Extremely knowledgeable and professional. I do appreciate all your expertise and assistance answering questions and always being available for clients. The best accounting company I have ever encountered!

Professional, extremely communicative, transparent, and a world of an upgrade compared to any CPA I've worked with in the past.

Edwin and crew are great. Very professional and knowledgeable.

Knowledgeable and professional

They go out of their way to accommodate you and your needs.

Very professional, responsive and fast. Thanks!
