Customer Reviews

I recently had the pleasure of working with Burgmaier & Associates Inc for my state and federal tax filings, and I couldn't be more satisfied with the experience. From start to finish, the team demonstrated exceptional professionalism and efficiency. Within just a week, they managed to file my taxes, which was impressive in itself. On the first day, I was introduced to a user-friendly portal set up by Eric and his associates?Margarita, Monica, and Ridhima. The portal made it incredibly easy to upload docum

Our company recently had our first meeting with Eric, Eva, and Kelly at Burgmaier & Associates to evaluate their services for our business needs. From the start, their team demonstrated exceptional professionalism. They asked thoughtful, relevant questions to understand our situation and provided clear, knowledgeable answers to all of our inquiries. What particularly impressed us was their follow-through - they promptly sent over all the promised information the same day as our meeting and took the initi

This has all been such a smooth and wonderful process! Eric was so helpful and easy to work with! He came highly recommended and now we highly recommend him and we will continue to work with him in the future. He helped us so much!

Great company. First time filing with this company and I couldn?t be happier. They were quick and efficient with my emails as well as filing my taxes. Also, great customer service, I will definitely be using them again next year!

I have worked with Burgmaier & Associates for 4 years and I have been extremely pleased with their services. They have always been professional, responsive and available. I highly recommend them for accounting, tax planning and financial services.

Update 03/18/2024. Thank you! I appreciate the reply. Currently I have been working with another CPA firm and I am quite happy with their professionalism and integrity. I hired Burgmair in 2022. The experience was extremely unprofessional. My tax prep was started the last day. The link I was sent to review the info never worked. I was sent one page of paperwork in an email. My social security did not match the numbers in any of the documents I had submitted to them. *I want to point

Eric and his team are truly amazing. I have had the pleasure of partnering with Burgmaier & Associates on multiple occasions and without fail they continue to display genuine care for their clients. Not only do they put the client first, they provide solutions that create a meaningful impact to the Individuals and businesses in this community.

Everyone at Burgmaier and Associates is very professional and helpful. My team and I reach out to them all the time, whether it's for complex problems, or simple advice, and we have never been let down. I have recommended them to a few of my friends and I am glad that they take care of my friends just as well as they take care of me. It is very apparent that they take pride in their work and in the relationships they maintain with their clients.

I worked mainly with Eric, but anyone I came in contact with were very friendly. I had some issues with my taxes and he was very knowledgeable and assisted me any way he could. He kept me informed through email and phone calls, answered any of my questions, and took his time. I am extremely happy with my experience. Thank you so much! I look forward to working with you guys again.

I?m not sure how I found Eric and his team but I?m glad I did. They started off doing my taxes and it evolved into finding me a quality dental practice to purchase. They?ve always listened to my concerns and that?s more than most. Did I mention they have a great coffee machine? What?s not to like about this place? Melissa, Kelly, and yes, Joe in the back, deserve a shout out. Keep up the good work!

Eric Burgmaier and his team are everything you could want in an accounting firm! They are very professional and do an amazing job, but what I appreciate most about them is they treat you like family. I can tell they are passionate about what they do because they take the time to address my concerns, answer my questions and make sure we are on the same page. There is no question in my mind that they work hard to do the best job for me personally and professionally!

We love Burgmaier & Associates!! They have been taking care of our taxes for years and they never disappoint. Great customer service, very friendly staff and is always there to answer any questions we have. We highly recommend Eric! Thank you Burgmaier & Associates!!

I've been using Burgmaier & Associates for everything from my books, taxes and my payroll for several years now. I have a tax planning meeting with Eric at least once a year and a review before filing. If I ever run into any problems he and/or his team always respond and help.

My experience with the team at Burgmaier has always been great. They get back to me in a timely manner, always professional and answer all of my difficult tax questions. I will continue to use them in the future and also highly recommend them to anyone!

Amazing place! I?m extremely happy with my experience here. I had them do my taxes, and have never been given more information throughout the process. Mr. Burgmaier was very informative and professional. He got my taxes done much faster than I was expecting, and I won?t hesitate to go back, I only wish I would have found them sooner.

The Burgmaier team has been extremely helpful for my business and my personal finances. It?s great having someone who is not only a great accountant, but having someone who uses this data as an effective advisor is money well spent. Could not be happier, as I have received sub par performance from countless in the Abq area. Thank you Burgmier & Associates

I have been their client since 2017. They were next to me closely past 8 yrs and their performances were always great. I can?t think of my success without their help. Thank you Eric and Kelly you guys are the best!!

I was referred to this firm by a long time friend after the CPA I had used for 25 years retired. I was very pleasantly surprised that the turnaround time on my personal tax returns was less than a week. I will definitely be returning next year.

Do not use this accounting firm they target professionals solely on the basis that they know they can bill them. It took a whole year of them charging me hourly rate and not completing my taxes then they withheld my information when I stopped paying them. Now I im dealing with the IRS for that time iIhad them doing my accounting and they will not release my tax info .to me. You can use any accountant and they will do a better job at a fraction of the cost.

This team goes above and beyond. As an outreach rural medical provider we could not have found a better match!

Eric and his staff have been extremely helpful for me and my businesses over the years. Not only helping me with tax issues but giving high quality referrals when I've needed other professionals.

We have used Burgmaier and Associates tax services for our personal and businesses over five years and they have been a tremendous help with every issue that comes up. We have several rental properties and they help us keep everything in order

This was my first time with this company, and it was a very pleasant experience. Joseph and Eric are very knowledgeable and made some major changes on my return, to my advantage. The support staff were wonderful.

Our First National 1870 Albuquerque banking team has only had great experiences with Burgmaier & Associates and we value our working relationship.

Eric and his team have changed my life, while simultaneously setting my business up for the future. The amount of work and detail given to me was astounding. I would highly recommend them.

Eric and Cheryl Burgmaier are wonderful people to work with! They have a great deal of knowledge and I recommend their services to anyone looking for an experienced and professional CPA.

Absolutely love working with this firm! Everyone is so kind and patient. They are so great at answering all of my questions and were beyond helpful when I started my small business.

You won't be able to find a better accounting company. Everyone is knowledgeable and attentive. Anytime we have a question I know that I will be able to call or email and get an answer. Highly recommend for all businesses!

Professional, knowledgeable, efficient, friendly and a strong/positive team approach. All the qualities you want for an Accounting firm.

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.
