Nancy and I have been with Danny for over 20 years and his team is always on top of their game and my calls always get returned very quickly . Besides the customer experience Danny has been able to use his professional knowledge to help reduce my tax rate.
All I can say is fantastic. Allday CPA handles the taxes for both of my businesses and my personal taxes including rental properties. After moving back to New Orleans, I was in a time crunch to find someone to do my C-Corp taxes and Danny was able to fit me in. He also provided guidance for my book keeping, including "lessons" on my accounting software, and has helped my businesses thrive! Not only is he there at the end of my tax years (FY and calendar), he has helped me make tax informed decisions over th
As a small business attorney, my clients always need accounting support. I've worked closely with Danny on several matters now, and have always been pleased with his experience and advice. So much so that earlier this year I retained Danny as my own accountant. So not only do I refer my clients to him and his firm, but he hands my business and personal taxes as well.

I tried to take over the accounting for our hair salon although I know very little about it. In the middle of a meltdown, I req
I wasn't going to leave feedback for this company, because I didn't have a very good experience, but they were nice people. However, they have spam emailed me so many times now asking me to leave a review even after I have unsubscribed AND directly asked them to stop emailing me, they have forced my hand. I would not use this company. I had a meeting with TWO accounts for about an hour an a half because my Quickbooks was not resolving by $500 (quick back note: my business is a side business and I only had

I was introduced to Allday Consulting Group in early 2012 when I sought consulting for the conversion of our accounting system from Quicken to QuickBooks. Danny setup the QuickBooks system and provided training in its use for our custom homebuilding business. When we met Danny, we were using Quicken for cost accounting but weren?t able to track costs against budgets or relate costs to revenue. Danny converted our Quicken accounting system to QuickBooks and showed us how to use QuickBooks to do true job cos

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.
