I had left a message but no longer needed an appointment when Patrice called. She answered some other questions about veterans benefits and she gave good advice. I would definitely schedule an appointment with her for next any tax assistance as needed. She was very nice and helpful on the phone.

I recently had the pleasure of having my business taxes prepared here, and I must say, the experience exceeded all my expectations. From the moment I reached out, I was greeted with the utmost professionalism and care, especially by Patrice at reception, who went above and beyond to ensure that all my initial queries were addressed promptly and efficiently. Myriam demonstrated an exceptional level of expertise and dedication and answering all my questions . The attention to detail and the personalized appro

Your team is great and Patrice at the front desk was very courteous and helpful. We will be coming back for tax service this year for our tax needs. Thank you ever so much for giving us good tax knowledge about gifts. God bless you all.

After filling out information online with CPA Accounting & Tax Services, they returned my inquiry Quickly!! Patrice Franklin was not only professional & experienced, she was personal & friendly too! I would recommend this firm to Anyone!! Thank you for your help!

I had a great experience with Sonia as she helped me with my questions about my 401k and starting a new business. The meeting was very enjoyable and I would definitely recommend. I look forward to continuing to use their services. Thank you

The Best Place I Visited. I have a small business and wanted a local accountant I could talk to throughout the year, not just during Tax Season!! Sonia and her team are awesome. It was a quick and they are going to start helping me with my bookkeeping as well.

I wanted to take this opportunity to say how thoroughly pleased I was with my first visit to Sonia's firm. The professional attitude of everyone i met, along with a 5-star knowledge base, and a sincere desire to help with my tax issue was impressive and much appreciated. I want to give special kudos to the people I personally interacted with. There is no question that going forward, I will be moving all of my business and personal accounting needs over to Sonia's firm, and recommending her firm to my bus

I've really enjoyed working with Sonia and her team and can't say enough great things about them. I've been on the hunt for a good accounting team for the past few years and finally found a company to handle my complexities. Thanks CPA Accounting & Tax Services!

Very professional, responsive and knowledgeable. From the receptionist to the CPA, the entire staff is wonderful. As a small business owner, the team at CPA Accounting & Tax Services has helped me implicitly with all of the recent tax law changes. I highly recommend them.

Great staff and service! Switched our small business accounts over to them and saved a lot of money. Sonia, Myriam and Lucy are excellent! Don?t hesitate, they are simply the best ????

I have come to Sonia and her group in 2012 when we started our company. Everyone is helpful, kind, and patient - which is good when undergoing stressful financial paperwork. Sonia really has gone the extra mile for us in helping guide us to ways we could optimize our finances. Vanessa with payroll has held my hand through too many small crises to count (always with charm and grace.) I recommend them very highly for small businesses.

We had an appointment, Sonya was busy with another client and we waited around 20 minutes. We had to wait for an unknown reason after the meeting was over. After around 10 minutes I had to leave over respect to my own time. I understand it was a special circumstances, but as a potential client I expect "respect" to my time.

Sorry to be rude, but sometimes the truth is what it is. I called to ask if they handle S-Corps, I was told to book a consult for $300. I again asked specifically can you tell me if your CPA's process 1120S forms, 401(k), and have worked with Defined Benefit Management companies because not every CPA knows these or feels comfortable doing them. I know a CPA that wasn't that experienced in them and finding out turned out to be the reason I didn't have one sooner. She again said you can book a consult... I

I had the experience to do my taxes with Rubem. He was very professional and precise. He met my deadline that I had in a timely manner. As well as he was very prompt with returning my calls whenever I had questions or concerns. Excellent service with no complaints...

We have been using CPA Accounting & Tax Services for over a decade now. They are great, always helpful and professional. It's almost like we are part of their family at this point. Thinking about it now I probably should have wrote a review a long time ago haha....Thanks for all you guys have done for us!

When it comes to tax services, book keeping, and any other financial services, sometimes, it's just very difficult to find a business that has it all. In our experience CP

This our go-to place for taxes. We have been going to them for a few years now. We normally see Ms. Miriam. She is always courteous and is very knowledable of any/all the changes, if any. Highly recommend to friends and family.

Find an HONEST and COMPETENT accountant! Don't waste your time with this lady. Paid a years worth of work and she didn't do anything, no bookkeeping, no financial reports when we asked her for them. She didn't do a anything, just took our money. I never leave reviews but this time I felt it was necessary to leave one.

The front desk talked so rude. And unprofessional what I mean in another word she has an attitude with you. When I asked for a consultation she also said is $295 just for consultation per hour. So just give you a heads up first it will be charge not only do the tax yet lol. I go somewhere elses no fee for consultation hehe.

Searching for accountants that knew about international taxes I found them online and visited them. I had a great service and found they perfectly understood my needs. Looking forward on working with Sonia and their team.

I was referred by a friend last year and love the experience working with them to complete several years of unfiled taxes. What a great staff. Thanks to all of you for a job well done.

I wanted to take a moment to thank you and CPA Accounting & Tax services for how you handled my business. Even though I did not get the answer I would have liked your office was very professional in the manner in which it handled it. I will definitely be using your services for my personal and business taxes from this point on.

I've been doing my taxes with Myriam for a lifetime and have always been extremely satisfied. Look forward to continuing doing business with her.

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.
