I live 2 hours away and take the drive to AMC. As a new business owner I am now recommending her to my clients who are also self employed. Claudia is amazing!!
No respect for other people's time. I scheduled an appointment with them, showed up on time, but the consultant didn't turn up. Nor did they reach out to fix it like they said they would. I waited 30 minutes at their office while they kept saying the consultant would come shortly. Not something you would expect from a business like this.
Great service, explains things throughly
I am a business customer. Rocio has been very helpful on the accounting with our business. Claudia has been doing our taxes for about 5 years. Will highly recommend their services.

I strongly recommend this place to prepare your taxes. They have great customer service, they are all great!
karina was amazing. I made an error on my taxes, and the IRS "corrected" them and sent me an additional bill for tens of thousands of dollars more. I thought you had to file a lot of paperwork to ask them to reconsider something like this, but in my case, karina took care of it in one day with one phone call, at a good price. Excellent and skilled service.

Been a client for many years. Aurora was very good at explaining my taxes. Thank you for your service.
Claudia treats her clients like robots. She was supposed to file my taxes electronically (direct deposit) and took my routing # and everything and never entered the number in my paperwork. Here i am now two months of waiting and i get a letter from the IRS saying info was left out. My new wait time for my check is nine weeks. Do not go to this place.
Claudia was amazing! She has great customer service skills and was very knowledgeable in doing my taxes. She was very straight to the point, very informative, and very thorough.

The service was very fast and great service! Recommend!!!

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.
