It took me a while to write this review but I felt like it was warranted. I found this firm based on rave reviews and client feedback. When I initially met Dan, he came across as a trustworthy professional with impeccable knowledge. I retained his services not knowing the first thing about taxes nor let alone about estate taxes and he explained stuff enough to make me trust him and his services.

Dan Vigilante accounting firm, made my business go bankrupt, with his crazy fee's. The better we did the more he charged. Don't go to this business and use them for accounting work. This is the worst

Dan is just the best at what he does. He is friendly and extremely knowledgeable and stays current on all tax laws. He has saved me so much money over the years. I am so grateful to work with him during the year for tax strategies and planning. He is always available for any questions via email or phone calls.

Dan and his team all very professional. Before coming to Dan I didn?t realize how many things were being doing in correctly. I am thankful to find such a great company who is organized and keeps me on track so I can focus on growing my business.

I do not recommend and I can?t say that strongly enough. When I decided to join the firm I was told that they would review my last three years of returns, one year later and after various emails and conversations that review still is not completed. I have only been a client for 1 year, and, because of their high turnover rate, I went through 3 different CPAs at the firm in less than 12 months. Each new CPA did NOT review my file nor understand my tax situation. It was like starting over each time. Also no

Another year of excellent work from Dan and his entire office. This year was somewhat tricky as I made a slight error on inputting my estimated taxes. Dan and his office came to the rescue! He immediately saw my error and Julia got in touch with the IRS and made sure that it was corrected. I have found an office that I can trust that will always get the job done year after year! Thank you, Dan!

Failed to file NY state return for 2022, while claiming they did. When I e-mailed the group to follow-up, my tax preparer never returned a single e-mail. Then when I contacted the front office I was told it was my problem to deal with now. They still took my full payment however. Avoid at all costs.

Dan and his team are very attentive to our business needs. We have years of experience with them and they are helpful not only with tax planning and return execution but all aspects of business operation. We wouldnt be the same without them.

Shannon Hoover has been my accountant for several years now and I wouldn't go anywhere else. I know that services like Turbotax and HR Block seem appealing for their low cost, but they will never provide the knowledge and service that Dan and his team provide. If I ever have questions, I feel comfortable to pick up the phone and ask them. Shannon takes her time to explain everything to me and I really appreciate that! I also like that my tax documents are always accessible in a digital format on their sec

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.
